OverReach / Overreaching (7)
Your OwnOptimizer Test indicates that you have had a very intensive
training period for several days or weeks. Your test heart rates have
continuously stayed at a high level. This seriously indicates that you
should have a complete recovery period. The longer you have trained
intensively, the longer the recovery period required to recover. Perform
the test again after at least two days of recovery.
OverTrS / Sympathetic Overtraining (8)
Your OwnOptimizer Test indicates that you have had a very intensive
training period for several days or weeks, and your recovery has not
been sufficient. This has result in a state of overtraining. To get back to
a normal training state, you have to rest for a carefully controlled
recovery period. Control your recovery with OwnOptimizer Test by
performing the test 2 – 3 times per week.
OverTrP / Parasympathetic Overtraining (9)
Your heart rates have stayed at a low level, which is generally interpreted
as a sign of a good recovery. However, other parameters indicate
parasympathetic overtraining. You may have trained with high volumes
for a long time and your recovery times may not have been long enough.
You should check if you have other signs of overtraining. For example,
overtraining is marked by decreased performance, increased fatigue,
mood disturbances, sleeping problems, persistent muscle soreness and/
or a feeling of being burnt out or stale. You may also have been
subjected to other stresses.
In general, the development of parasympathetic overtraining requires a
long history of heavy training volumes.
