What this work gives Aellic

There is no reliable single biomarker for overtraining: “none of them meet all the criteria to make their use generally accepted”. A multi-signal approach beats any individual marker — hence the corroboration through resting heart rate and respiratory rate. The statement names NO threshold values, however; the specific limits (+5 bpm, +1.5 brpm) are Aellic's own. Second publication: European Journal of Sport Science 13(1):1–24, doi 10.1080/17461391.2012.730061 — different pagination, do not mix the two.
