If i have been training a body part consistantly and then switch up the routine a bit I will be a little more sore than usual, due to the fact that my routine was switched and I was probably hitting the muscle in ways it isnt used to or at slghtly diff angles, make that particular part of the muscle sore.
The way i look at it is, if you workout a body part on a regular basis it rly shouldn't be getting that sore after every workout, if you never workout it out then itll be very sore the first couple times you do it and will eventually adapt, and if u switch up your routine for a regularly worked out body part then it will be a little more sore than usual, but not as sore as if you never rly workout that part.
I dont think the soreness i am feeling that i explained above is over trainging.
If you are very sore every time you hit a body part you probably are over training, or you are just veryy intense in the gym, and if so, then aain you are probably overtrainging.. and by very intense i mean like light headed, throwing up, looks like you got out of the shower cause your so sweaty, intense.
