Hyperthyroidism Basics
Hyperthyroidism basics mean an overactive thyroid—elevated resting heart rate, poor sleep, and heat intolerance need medical care and rest-first training, not more intensity.
Hyperthyroidism basics describe an overactive thyroid—resting heart rate climbs, heat tolerance drops, anxiety and tremor rise, sleep thins, and weight may fall despite normal or high intake. Graves' disease and toxic nodules are common causes; athletes may mistake elevated HR for fitness.
Hard intervals and sleep debt worsen the spiral until treated.
