- Hey guys! Today I’ll be sharing why and how too much exercise, aka “overtraining” is bad for weight loss and overall fitness. FYI, the reason has to do with cortisol, a stress hormone that becomes elevated when we exercise too much. Also, I’ll be sharing a simple strategy to use when setting up your workout schedule so you don’t end up over-exercising, increasing cortisol levels and stalling weight loss. Enjoy the video! – Doc
