3 Signs You're Doing Too Much Cardio

Something you may not know but too much cardio can work against you!!

Here are three signs you are doing too much cardio:

No. 1 - Energy is low outside of workouts, recovery time is really long and appetite is really high

- Cardio burns through the most available energy source our body has and it depletes us and then takes a long time replenish. If you're exhausted for a long period of time after your workout, it means there was too much cardio. Your body isn't able to replenish itself fast enough and because we are so depleted our appetite spikes!

No. 2 - Any progress made is fragile

- Your not changing your body composition, your just shrinking fat cells and not gaining any muscle mass - this is why balanced strength training is so important!

- You feel like if you even smell a slice of Pizza you will lose all progress

- You feel you have to do more and more cardio to see progress, which is just lengthening your cardio sessions, which is more effort for less results.

No. 3 Body will change in size but not shape

It doesn't allow you to build muscle mass which will help change the shape of our body and create a healthier balance with our appetite, making us a calorie burning machine!

So next time you do a cardio workout or are reviewing your workout choices, think about these three signs.
