Overtraining syndrome (OTS) is very hard to define and is very relative for each athlete. Like medical syndromes - collections of symptoms that define a disease - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_syndromes - OTS would fall in this category. Here are the most recent IOC 'consensus' definitions of the syndrome: https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/50/17/1030 & https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/50/17/1043 but because it's relative and not absolute makes it neither useless nor 'stupid.'
