#339: All athletes need to know about Low Energy Availability (LEA)

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. DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is for guidance only and is not individualised advice for you! Your unique situation needs to be taken into consideration and adjusting your dietary intake.____________________________________________Email me: [email protected] MY FREE MACRO NUTRITION CHEATSHEET Your Guide To Improving Your Macros & Making Meal Prep Easierhttps://theclimbingdietitian.lpages.co/macro-cheatsheet-the-climbing-dietitian/Apply for Bespoke 1:1 Macro Sherpa Nutrition Coaching Program: https://bit.ly/395QmGsCheck out and SUBSCRIBE to my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/2Mxqs4WTo find me on socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theclimbingingdietitianTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theclimbingdietitianFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theclimbingdietitianTwitter: https://twitter.com/beardyAPDLink to blog: https://bit.ly/330ULq4Check out my website for more information on me and what I do:https://www.theclimbingdietitian.com.au
