Q: regarding the over-exercise that you mentioned this morning on the live...

My usual routine is to exercise every day + a few rest days pre-period. I do Tracy Anderson mat classes 60 mins x 4/week and dance cardio + 30 min mat class x 3/week. I love it because it's the only thing I've been able to do consistently (2+ years) and not get injured (I used to dance a lot, have had various injuries over the years and pre-TA they would sometimes flare up).

For phase 1, I paused on my usual TA to give Metabolic Method my full attention and have been doing the daily steps, runs, 1 class so far.

My Q: it doesn't feel like I'm doing enough exercise with the walks/classes/weekly run. My brain says if I'm not getting sweaty every day, it's not really exercise. And my back & hip (old injuries) have started playing up. TA has me mostly in heart rate Zones 2-3 so it's not heavily stressing (in my mind) and I have a Whoop to track my recovery. Do you think this qualifies as over-exercising?  

If yes, I am happy to continue to follow the programme to the T and pause my usual routine for the moment (providing pain settles down) but wanted your thoughts given my usual baseline of movement.
