Can a person become obsessed and exercise too much? The answer is yes. Dr. Jeff Bowman, foot specialist in Houston, TX has treated numerous patients who have come with issues stemming from exercise or overtraining. Whether you are training for something specific or exercising for fear of gaining weight, going too far with exercise leaves not only your feet, but also your whole body vulnerable to many different problems.
Thirty minutes of moderate activity is typically enough for the average person to maintain their health. Doing double or triple that a day doesn’t necessarily make you that much more healthy and risk factors of too much exercise include:
- Exhaustion
- Depression
- Insomnia
- Headaches
- Loss of appetite
- Elevated pulse in the morning
- Pain in muscles and joints
- Decrease in performance
Foot pain and ankle injuries are likely when overtraining or not wearing proper footwear during exercise. Contact our podiatric office and make an appointment with Dr. Bowman if you have any foot or ankle pain. Call us at (713) 467-8886 or visit us at www.houstonfootspecialists.com.
