In the first experiment's and 2nd experiment's experimental group, it sounds like the mice over trained. It's a commonly known phenomena among athletes and these symptoms certainly sounded like it.
It would have been more interesting if they had trained the mice up over a longer period of time and then exposed them to flu.
- Goladus 17y agoYeah, a big reason people exercise is for the long-term health benefits. Of course the study is interesting, but not as something that should directly affect personal workout routines.

Not only can it be counter-productive (increasing the time to actually get physically fit) but opens you up to prolonged infections. The big problem is that lack of rest between exercise can increase the risk of strokes and other circulatory problems, which is extremely counter productive. Damage to connective tissue and the consumption of muscle tissue during exercise can have life long effects (for anyone who doesn't know, your heart is a contractile protein, which is the type of protein consumed during excessive exercise periods). Regular and regulated exercise are the key to health, and it has to be a regimen built for you. For some people over-exercise can be beyond a 20-minute light jog, for others it's a marathon. Not everyone is a marathon runner or body builder and believing differently is dangerous to your health.
- scott_s 17y agoThat would be a much more interesting experiment, and closer to what human athletes do. Any athlete who is serious about training also schedules rest. It's during the rest that you actually get stronger and better conditioned.
