RED-S & The Menstrual Cycle
When working with female athletes, understanding the menstrual cycle & associated hormonal fluctuations is KEY to train to full potential.Recent research has also resulted in change & update in criteria from ‘female athlete triad’ to the comprehensive RED-S model - which identifies more athletes stratified as ‘at risk’ and allows for improved prevention/management of condition.
This webinar helps translate this research into clinical practice - understand how to screen your athletes, look for physical flags, and how to manage safe return to sport for those women considered at risk.
