In an excellent series of articles in the British Journal of Sports Medicine (summarized HERE) the authors reviewed the literature and published findings from their own study on this question:  Can too much training be bad for you and cause you to be at greater risk of injury?

And a beautiful InfoGraphic summarizing this article was published on a blog HERE.

Athletes, coaches and sports medicine providers of all persuasions may find great benefit!
