Indicators That Exercise May Be Harmful to Health

Excessive exercise or significant strain on the body threatens physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Here are signs that indicate that exercising may be harmful to health, according to the Times of India:

1. **Feeling Exhausted**: Feeling fatigued even after 7 or 8 hours of deep sleep at night may indicate over-exercising and the need for rest.

2. **Muscle Strain and Inflammation**: Muscle strain, inflammation, and fractures are often caused by excessive exercise. If these occur, one should stop exercising or resort to lighter workouts.

3. **Overeating**: Over-exercising can drive the body to seek more energy to maintain its activity level, which may result in consuming more calories.

4. **Decreased Performance**: Fatigue and lack of motivation can impact physical performance. A lack of strength, agility, and endurance can make exercising difficult.

5. **Frequent Illness**: Insufficient rest for the body can weaken the immune system, leading to repeated illnesses.
