CT is cool. He is also a reason why a lot of people mistakenly don't believe in overtraining.
Guarantee nobody here has the ability to over train, people are lazy wanna do 3 sets of 10 for everything

Check out the addicted to working out thread that the silly fellow above your post started and say what you just said

I don't think you are serious because your statement implies that all people are the same. We know this isn't true.
You say you know you train hard enough lets see your results. Bro me and my friends destroy our bodys for strength and we dont overtrain. Training is supposed to be painful not too many people even get to that point

define 'over training' -- if you and your buddies train hard and go above your MRV (maximum recoverable volume), and by so doing you hinder or limit strength and hypertrophy gains, as opposed to training just under your MRV (where more gains can be made) , then technically your at least "over reaching".
but if you want to train harder and not smarter and make less gains by so doing , well each to their own.
your MRV may very well be 30 sets per day for 3 hour sessions every day . but the fact is every one has a physiological MRV , and once you go beyond that then you go into 'over reaching'

Guys that worry about overtraining need to work harder. I know i work hard as fuck and still manage to recover a day or 2 of rest in a week is plenty especially cuz most people work 8 hour days or not at all

I have to disagree. CT is a motivator. People don't overtrain because they are motivated. People overtrain because they are stupid and as silly as this sounds lazy.
To be honest, the only muscle that I have ever seen overtrained in chest. I see assholes benching 3 days per week. The same guys never squat("they have bad knees"), never dead lift("they have a bad back") and never show up if they aren't working chest or arms("they had to work late"). These same idiots wear sweats all year round so you can't see their chop sticks that walk them into the building.

guys that over talk or over worry about over training are the pussies that need to just get their ass to the gym and grind it out and act like they never heard of the word "over training" , just some bogey man that they are afraid of.
the guys that actually need to worry about overtraining are the monsters that put up 2100+ raw totals in a powerlifting meet. Because squating and dead lifting 800 pounds does put so much homeostatic stress on the body that the possibility of over training is really there.
the guy at the gym that can only squat a few plates is far from that, far from causing that much stress and damage and overload, and really does not have to worry about over training.**
**though again , physiologically speaking , we all have a MRV that can be 'over reached' .. most us never work hard enough to get there though

Its like you don't even really read my comments. I said that CT fletcher promotes the idea that overtraining does not exist. Overtraining effects the CNS which controls the rest of your body. I understand it is heard for you to think about anything but muscle tissue

very true. A real world example, elite world class powerlifters may only go for a PR or world class one rep max a few times a year or at the end of a well planned meso cycle peaking for that one time event. because that one rep max at that level takes so much out of there CNS , they simply cannot attempt it again until adequate recovery is reached .
on the other hand , average Joe's at the gym who don't hardly know how to tap into their CNS for strength , will attempt a PR or one rep max a few times a week !! they don't need the recovery cause they are doing very little stress/damage to the body or CNS in the first place.

Guys that actually NEED to worry about overtraining are guys that work hard already
every top level olympic weight lifter, power lifter, strength athlete etc.. has a well formulated and put together training block and macro cycle that lays out a specific amount of work load and volume need to achieve ones goals without, or a least with limiting factors, to not go into 'over reaching'* and then end up in over training (where performance will go down)
* unless the training block has a pre planned 'over reaching' phase where the plan is to over reach on purpose, then de-load, and then peak
