#339: All athletes need to know about Low Energy Availability (LEA)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
LEA…Low energy availability.
Very important topic to cover that comes from a recent chat with a new client and their parent. What I have found it is now being more and more known but still there are some misunderstandings to address.
Doing so will improve the profile of this athlete issue and hopefully create more awareness so that more athletes, growing and mature, seek nutrition guidance.
In this episode, I explain what low energy availability is, why it’s important, and why all athletes need to know about it and understand it’s a universal risk factor needing addressing.
