As long as you have been resting healthfully ie not a lot of booze etc.
It is not likely that your current problems are related to overtraining....TRIUMPH KID said:Ok, here goes, as a noobi racer last year I ended up severely over training causing less than stellar race results. Going into winter my plan was to rest December and part of January, then hit it hard but with more down time (45 years old). Problem is, I have been very sick most of the winter. The first week in February I felt great, legs were strong and ready to go but I forced myself to slowly ramp up the training on my indoor trainer. A week later wham... fever, weakness and respiratory/sinus issues. This has lasted another week with no real signs of improvement. As I type this I am thinking...dumbass, I need to see a doctor. I guess my question here is does or can overtraining affect ones body 4-5 months after race season ended?
I should also add my 2 kids and wife have been sick as much as myself but they usually snap out of it in a few days. This last one has really kicked my ass and I currently feel as if I am really down for a long time.
I know, go see a doctor, just would like info on the overtraining aspect.
Kids and family illness pull the pins out from under all of us, no matter how healthy and resistant to illness you are.TRIUMPH KID said:then hit it hard .
