Overtraining occurs when the body can no longer recover from the bodybuilding workouts.  In order for the body to grow, you need to train hard pushing your body to the limits.  However, if you constantly train hard without following a periodized bodybuilding workout, more than likely you will cross the line and overtrain.

If you are over-training, the solution is to simply take a couple of days off to allow the body to completely rejuvenate itself and then ease back into training. This works amazingly well.  Also, by using a periodized bodybuilding workout as well as following the right bodybuilding diet you minimize your chances of ever getting over-trained again.  Always remember the need to periodize your training because if you choose to do high volume workouts all of the time, eventualy your body will reach the point that it can no longer recover.  That is why periodization varies the training by alternating weeks of high volume workouts with weeks of higher intensity/heavier work.
