Being too active during gym class can be a real worry, especially for students who want to do their best. It's important to notice the early signs that you might be overdoing it. Here are some easy-to-spot signs to keep in mind:

1. Physical Signs:

• Feeling Very Tired: If you feel super tired before gym class is over, that's a warning sign.
• Muscle Pain: A little soreness is okay, but if you feel sharp or constant pain, you might be pushing yourself too hard.
• Struggling to Breathe: If you’re out of breath during activities that you usually handle well, it's a good idea to take it easy.

2. Mental Signs:

• Hard to Focus: If you can't concentrate on instructions or activities, it could be a sign you're doing too much.
• Feeling Cranky or Upset: If you notice mood changes or you’re not excited about activities, it might mean you need to slow down.

3. Behavioral Signs:

• Not Performing Well: If your performance gets worse, like running slower or having trouble with coordination, it might mean you need to take a break.
• Skipping Breaks: If you ignore rest time because you think "everyone else is doing more," that can lead to overdoing it.

Safety Tips:

• Always pay attention to how your body feels—it usually knows best!
• Drink plenty of water and eat healthy snacks before and after activities.
• Talk to your teachers or friends if you’re feeling off; they can help you change your activities or give support.

In the end, noticing these signs can help you enjoy sports and avoid getting hurt. Remember, the main goal is to have fun and stay healthy!
