Zusammenfassung
The possible counterproductive effect of prolonged training of high intensity on physical performance is well known among athletes. This overstrain condition is difficult to detect before its appearance and also in its early phase, using the physiological tests now in use for this purpose. Therefore, we have approached this problem from the biochemical point of view, hoping to find better indicators.
