While many people lack the training of sheer laziness, feeling too tired to pull iron can be a real problem and without any connection with their dedication. With this in mind, lately you have been "dragged" to the gym or have difficulty even to finish a workout, see the main reasons for this is happening and how to return to training in full swing.
Reason 1 - Insufficient sleep:
Yes, you are tired of knowing that need to sleep eight hours a day to enhance recovery. But if you have been feeling too tired to train, sleep is the first thing that should be inspected (and is often the cause of problems).
Just one sleepless night can now generate effects with fatigue, stress, and decrease in performance and focus during the day. Well, those hours ahead of you is on Facebook are not worth the harm that lack of sleep can bring. With that said, prioritize sleep and try to sleep as soon as possible every day.
And if you already sleeping eight hours a night, make sure you are making the most of this period: Avoid consuming caffeine and other stimulants after six in the evening; avoid performing high intensity activities immediately prior to the sleep period; not consume liquids in large amounts before bedtime; do not sleep with the clock near the bed; make sure the sleep environment is light free and constant interruptions.
Reason 2 - Dehydration:
This is especially important for those who train hard during the summer. Research indicates that even a slight degree of dehydration can increase the symptoms of fatigue, anxiety, affect mood and decrease cognitive performance.
The American Institute of Medicine suggests that women drink at least 2.7 liters and men 3.7 liters of water per day. In short, the old statement to drink 4 liters of water a day is still valid.
Reason 3 - abruptly Stop using stimulants:
Stimulants are common in the weight through the use of pre-workout supplements. However, few people heed to the fact that when we stop using any stimulant that the body was accustomed to receiving daily, there is a sort of "hangover"; discouragement, lack of motivation and fatigue are expected in the early days after finishing a pot pre-workout.
This also happens when the body creates resistance stimulant, so no point in insisting on using or increase the dosage in order to escape these effects. This will only cause resistance increases and the negative effects are worse when necessary discontinue use.
Reason 4 - crap Excess dietary:
The quality of the diet is not related only to the quality of your physique. Studies suggest that people who "mistreat" the body by eating junk food (processed foods high in sugars and fats) often tend to have more fatigue and suffer mood swings. Scientists believe that this is because the intestine have a kind of connection to the central nervous system, therefore the health of this part of the digestive system may affect mood and generate symptoms of fatigue.
The phrase "you are what you eat" could not be more true, and with a bonus: eat junk and besides having a physical trash, you will feel like crap.
Reason 5 - You're destroying the gym:
You do not have to destroy in the gym to get results, you need to progress. There is no point have to leave the academy with the help of paramedics, because their training was "no pain, no gain", if you always remains the same.
With that said, make sure your training is generating progress instead of tiredness, only. If it is the latter, it is interesting to check the duration of training, the amount of exercises, sets and use techniques to increase intensity. The exaggeration in any of these items can detonate their ability to recover and generate symptoms of sadness, discouragement and lack of motivation to train.
