Stop taking ice baths, doing high intensity interval training, and intermittent fasting without proper analysis and guidance. Utilizing data and having a coach to analyze the effects of these practices is crucial. Doing too many good things can actually have negative effects on the body, as seen in a client who experienced hormonal imbalances. Hormetic stressors, such as exercise and intermittent fasting, can be beneficial when used strategically. It is important to find the right balance and not overload the body with stressors. Taking advantage of the available resources, like coaches and data analysis, can help optimize health and performance.
