Simply: it is a too big car with a too small motor.

Ayad Kamel Shalan , You can follow the answer from this author, when we meet at the university I will tell you about it.

As a lifelong athlete in many fields of sports, for me, the main experience during a burnout is "muscle fatigue" which goes with mood changes and decreased training motivation, frequent injuries and sometimes inflammations.

However, overall speaking; it depends on the expertise of the above-mentioned athlete, as well as the types and the fields of sport involved. A proper warm-up together with proper cooling down after any field of training can be preventive of muscle fatigue which also may minimize severe tendon injury and therefore eliminate most of the etiology of overtraining which can be the accumulated lactic acids with the involved muscle groups.
