[2] This improvement in overall performance will, in turn, allow an athlete to keep increasing the intensity of their training sessions.

[2] People who are overtrained cease making progress, and can even begin to lose strength and fitness ...
Exercises can aid fat loss or stimulate muscle hypertrophy, but cannot otherwise improve tone.

The words "tone" and "toning" can be misleading as they suggest that spot reduction is possible, which it is not. More accurate descriptions ...
