The Myths of Exercise Intolerance with Libby Wescombe

So what if you exercise and you have a negative side effect to exercise?  You might experience fatigue post workout, odema, trouble sleeping, night sweats or even DOMS for days.  Or you might just not be able to put on muscle or lose weight no matter how much you exercise.



Well, this is something I have seen in my work for 19 years but has been recently been coined “exercise intolerance” in the pro-metabolic community and along with it has stemmed a whole further list of myths like “cardio is bad for you” and left a whole group of people feeling like they will never be able to deal with stress.  



Another cohort is frustrated with the knowledge that to be healthy, you need muscle mass, but then any time they push the weights, they are having these negative reactions.



So what is this all about?  Is there really such a thing as exercise intolerance? Why does it happen and what do we do about it?
