When do you need to stop exercising?
Wrong. Fitness enthusiasts rarely admit it, but people frequently regret their efforts and incur major harm as a result. Nothing is worse than being sidelined due to an injury that could have been avoided.
How do you tell the difference between a burn you can endure and a more serious burn? When is "quitting" (whether it refers to taking a break in the middle of a class or stopping all activity) not being a wimp but rather being wise about what really, genuinely nourishes your body?

These five warning signs are too important for you to ignore.
Pain that compels you to change your posture
In an exercise, it's typical to make an early adjustment that rapidly wears off. However, pain that persists or worsens is not good and needs to be investigated. It partially prevents you from changing your form to try and alleviate the pain, which can cause further harm. Examples of such changes include shortening your stride, pushing off harder on one side of the spin bike, or altering your posture at the barre. "That state of compensating can result in significant chronic discomfort."
Any discomfort that feels stabbing or shooting
The top-ranking cautionary sign? a sharp, radiating, or shooting pain. Even if you're in the middle of a workout, We advises, "You have to stop and visit a doctor." (If you're enrolled in a class, don't worry about it being improper manners. Simply excuse yourself and explain your situation to the instructor.) Why? It can be a sign of a nerve problem, "[The damage] can originate from another location, moving the shooting agony. You might irritate others more if you exercise in spite of growing pains.

Exhaustion
The good kind of tired you feel after you’ve rocked a workout is awesome. But if you feel yourself dragging through your days, you’ve gone too far. Exhaustion is a clear sign that you’re overtraining. And it’s not just bad for your muscles; it’s dangerous for your mind. “You can go from a state of endorphins — so you’re uber happy when you’re working out — to a state of depression,” “(I’ve seen that happen with a lot of people in boutique fitness. They work out so they burn themselves out, and it leads to a state of anxiety and mood problems.)”
Discomfort that interferes with daily activities
It's not good if your pain ever gets so extreme that it keeps you from doing the things you normally do, notably sleeping. We asserts that inability to sleep is a clue that something is wrong because you need it to heal. Take a break for a few days, and when you resume your workouts, don't forget to give yourself recuperation time in between sessions. Be sure to hydrate, foam roll, and eat well. Foam rolling, "it will dissolve any adhesions, knots, or trigger points in your tissue, and your body will relax."

Bruises you get despite not bumping into anything
Put off your workout(s) if you feel any form of twinge and then discover a bruise there despite having not bumped into anything. Wherever there is bruising, an interior tear is usually present. Your body may only require a few days of rest due to a minor, microscopic tear, or it may be a complete tear. The only way to find out is to take some time off and, when necessary, consult a physician or physical therapist.

Remember: Rest, eat well, and hydrate. “You should feel fine after 48 hours or so of recovery,” he says. “But if you’re not recovered after 48 to 72 hours, then you want to go see a medical professional.”
