Relative Energy Deficiency In Sport (RED-S), or chronic underfuelling, can have very serious health and performance consequences. We are joined by Dr. Alex Coates, former elite ITU triathlete and current professor of Exercise Physiology who's research has focused on what happens when we push too far or when we recover insufficiently from training. Alex educates us on the consequences of RED-S and how to make sure we are fuelling well for heath and performance. This episode was originally released in 2021, and I'll said it then and I'll say it again: Folks, this is a must-listen! RED-S is NOT “just an eating disorder” and doesn’t “just affect women” - this information is important for everyone. Give it a listen!
