I was approached last summer by several former University of Oregon women track athletes alleging they felt victimized by the program's data-driven approach to weight and body fat percentage. After a deep dive, this is what I found: https://t.co/dn1cKySJ3G

@DrJenniferReed @JillianRamosPhD Aw thanks @DrJenniferReed !! 😊

[Emily Southmayd Ricker @EmilyRicker_PhD]

@DrJenniferReed @AcademicChatter I do this too. It has saved hours and probably many errors over the course of my academic life! Now I can’t remember where I learned it...maybe from you!

Your relationship with food, #reproductivehealth, #bonehealth, and performance are so important and should be prioritized over the way you look. This means you must fuel your body with energy to meet the needs of your daily endeavors. Learn more about fueling in our bio!

[The Athlete Triad @TheAthleteTriad]

It’s #TriadTuesday!! Today’s blog discusses an important topic regarding conversations between athletes and coaches surrounding weight/body image. We MUST be educated in these potentially sensitive areas in order to protect the mental and physical health of athletes. #linkinbio

Question for men: have you ever been asked "do you work outside of the home?" I know it's a well meaning question, acknowledging that women who stay home are still working hard, but I wonder if men are ever asked this.

[Emily Southmayd Ricker @EmilyRicker_PhD]

Hmmm...so many questions...

Why does reading articles make me feel dumber rather than smarter?? There's so much I ( and the collective "we") don't know about physiology. Where to even begin?

HIIT induces fat loss and decreases androgenicity in women with obesity. However, its side effects such as endotoxemia and hyperinsulinemia are ameliorated by caffeine supplementation. https://t.co/psBcxySdQJ

I regularly try to find silver linings of this whole pandemic (not that I would have wished this suffering on anyone). Today, I'm grateful for telehealth coming into prominence. A 5-min phone call to check in and get a prescription refill saves SO much time, energy, & stress!

10/10 recommend the @MichelleObama Podcast. This podcast transcends politics and reminds listeners that we are all in this together. We need to respect and lean on one another to make our country and the world a better place. #MichelleObamaPodcast https://t.co/pCb78qF5vI

The daily “dinner table conversations” about COVID by my well-meaning, non-scientist relatives leave me feeling annoyed, but I can never put a finger on why I’m so irritated by it. This is why. How can we fix the way science is portrayed and understood by non-scientists? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Having a news release does not make science authoritative.

@AthleticsCanada @hstellingwerff @gstafford13 @lalongen @BishopMelissa @MalindiElmore @margomountjoy The presentation was quite thin in the scientific evidence department. But thank you to the athletes for sharing their stories and normalizing discussions of amenorrhea and bone health consequences of energy deficiency (i.e. the Female Athlete Triad)

[The Athlete Triad @TheAthleteTriad]

This #TriadTuesday, we bring you a video that summarizes The Female Athlete Triad. Head to our website for the full video and resources on #TheFemaleAthleteTriad!
