About this listen
In this episode, Becca McConville, an expert on relative energy deficiency in sports, shares insights on REDs and its impact on health and performance. We break down the complexities of metabolic dysfunction, the "sneaky" ways athletes end up under-fueled, and why a low resting heart rate might not be the "fitness flex" many think it is.
From the impact of GLP-1 medications on performance to the psychology of "a la carte" movement, this conversation provides a roadmap for athletes and clinicians to move from a state of survival to true performance.
We chat about:
- REDS and its effects on metabolism and health
- Unstructured activity and its role in energy expenditure
- Nutritional strategies for athletes to prevent REDS
- Metabolic markers and signs of low energy availability
- The impact of low heart rate and HRV on athlete health
- And so much more!
