It's possible, yes. $:-\$

Obviously there's a limit to how much you should be doing, if you work out too much in one session you will do more damage to your muscles than good.

yes, you can overtrain

Yes for sure. I've over trained many times, and pulled muscles and tendons. My joints are the worst. The older you get you are more likely you are to gaining injury.

I still struggle with this. $:-\$ I feel like I'm bouncing between doing too much and not doing enough. I try to listen to what my body is saying- but sometimes I'm suspicious of just feeling lazy, so I keep pushing myself to do more while watching out for injuries. :blink:
