> Not listening to your body when it is talking to you is a guaranteed way to get injured even in a permanent way, your body is not against you, if it is sending you a message there is a reason.
As a former college athlete I can't agree with you. It's nearly impossible to tell when you are pushing yourself too hard and when you are just pushing yourself.
The first workout of the year feels like you will die. A few weeks later that same workout feels like a warm up. Pain is always involved.
Definitely changes from sport type, referring to bodybuilding/calisthenics I have always felt some kind of difference,
the former is much more like the joints and tendons are involved, while the latter is mostly the muscles (DOMS).
Either way, there's no need to skip training for a year and then hit the gym in one go (too much, too soon)
