REDs & Your Performance

Understanding REDs

When your body isn't getting enough fuel to keep up with everything it needs to do — and what that means for your health.


Think of your body like a phone with too many apps running. If you're burning more energy than you're eating, whether through training, daily life, or both, your body starts shutting down non-essential functions to survive. REDs is what happens when that energy gap goes on too long.



Who is at risk?

REDs can affect anyone! 

It's not only elite athletes — recreational athletes can develop REDs too, especially if dieting or on weight loss medications while training hard.


Easy to miss, easy to misread

A common myth is that losing your period or feeling tired just means you're "training hard." These are warning signs, not badges of effort. Early recognition and eating enough are the most important steps.

If you think you or someone you know may be experiencing REDs, reach out to me.  I am here to help keep you performing at your best!  

REDs Impact on Your Body & Performance

Hormones

Reproductive hormones drop, disrupting menstrual cycles in women and testosterone in men.


Bones

Bone density falls, increasing the risk of stress fractures and long-term osteoporosis.


Metabolism

The body slows down to conserve energy, making it harder to perform and recover.


Mood & focus

Low fuel affects the brain too — irritability, poor concentration, and low motivation are common.
