Hi lovely,
Feel free to combine the program with some extra workouts if you wish (e.g. Pilates, yoga, boxing, swimming) or add ankle weights, gliding discs and resistance bands and increase the number of repetitions to make your workouts more challenging.
It might sound unlikely, but it IS possible to train too much. Your body needs time to recover, otherwise you can do some serious damage (e.g. hormonal imbalances and loss of menstrual cycle due to stress or a very low body fat percentage). Some overtraining can take just a few days to recover from, but severe overtraining can take some months. With super intense workouts such as Crossfit and HIIT becoming more popular, I think it’s really important to know when you are overtraining and really listen to your body.

Love,
Diana

I’m currently doing your lean legs program and I am a lot more active than the program and I wondered what your thoughts or beliefs are on over exercising? Can that be done and can it be detrimental to weight loss?

Kind regards

Erin
