i think people who are primarily endomorphic ...are immunue to over training

they only why an endormorph can get shredded is to train hard 6 days a week...2 adays if possible.

Endormophs are efficient ...taking rest days and doing easy wont shred u

u gotta go so hard... very hard :type:
 
Overtraining is a concept that's been totally blown out of proportion. That being said, I don't believe anyone is immune to it, but rather it's very hard for anyone to truly overtrain. It usually happens with hardcore athletes/olympic lifters training 30+ hours/week.
 
It's an interesting question. Thibadeau wrote an interesting article on this a few weeks back. While the amount of physical work that one can theoretically perform is huge; recovery is crucial. If you're stressed out, getting little/poor sleep, your body might be under-recovering from your training which will lead to something you would call overtraining.

Yeah, that's mainly what I was referring to. Nice elaboration.

Lets say someone trained 4 hours a day once in the morning once in the afternoon and once at night he focused the work on one major area a day and would leave 48 hours before focusing work on that one muscle again but saying this it might be used within 24 hours as a secondary muscle. He got 8 hours of sleep and diet was on par.

The other guy trains 1 hour 3 times a week he also got 8 hours and had a spot on diet.

Who would end up getting having the most gains?
 
You'd have to eat a lot to fuel that kind of rigorous schedule, but Thibadeau would make a case for lifter #1 getting more gains, I believe.
