Energy availability is the energy our body has left over from our calorie intake after we take away the calories from exercise - the energy it uses to keep all your organs and body functions running. This week we’re talking about the state of Low Energy Availability - when we are consistently not giving our bodies enough energy for them to repair, rebuild, and do all the other awesome things that bodies do to support us. A lot of the time we might not realize that we’re in a state of LEA until it goes so far that we see menstrual cycle irregularities, but there are SO many signs before then that are important to look out for so that you can reverse it before things go too far. Join us for a discussion on LEA where we will talk about: > What *is* Low Energy Availability? > How is it different from RED-S? > What are the early signs of LEA? > What are the signs of chronic LEA? > What should you do if you think you might be in a state of LEA and are seeing some of the signs?
