Overdoing it?...: Overdoing anything, mental or physical, will lead to some predictable effects. Using the legs too much leads to leg aches and pains, etc... Relative rest is helpful, meaning don't stop all activity, but decrease it and then one can gradually increase it again. It is a matter of knowing one's limits, based on one's own body, it's level of conditioning, etc... If worried, a doctor can evaluate.
