“Overreaching” is a popular term to describe a period of escalated training that generates fitness improvements or competitive success, but which is not sustainable over the long term. 

As you’ll learn during this breather show, overreaching should be best characterized as early-stage overtraining—plenty of overreaching symptoms hint at imbalance and impending doom (they can certainly feel unpleasant), yet athletes often become intoxicated by the mood-elevating, painkilling effects of excess stress hormone production and the satisfaction of better workouts and superior competitive performances. Consequently, athletes routinely ignore overreaching symptoms, so they ultimately progress into a state of full-blown overtraining/burnout.
