It's your regular reminder:
❌Missing periods is NOT a normal part of training
❌You do NOT have to earn food
❌Exercise is NOT punishment for eating
❌Weight loss is NOT a go-to performance shortcut
❌Lighter does NOT equal faster
✔️Fuelling training is vital

I recommend anyone working with Athletes (male or female) to listen to this podcast about RED-S;
Things to look out for, implications on performance and health and how to approach some uncomfortable but important questions. #trainbrace#reds
Once all this is over, I hope we don't go back to normal.
I hope we use this as a springboard to make a much better environment, general health in the population, better use of health resources and be nicer humans.

Mental toughness often comes gift wrapped in failure, struggle, and fatigue. The sign of a champion is how one responds to a bad day. When you wake up tomorrow, it's a new day and a new you. Trust the process and love what you do. The journey to success is not straight and easy

Scientists may soon be able to create human sperm and eggs using ordinary skin cells – a breakthrough for those with fertility problems. But does it raise some troubling ethical questions? @MasaKekana finds out more after the break on #CarteBlanche
@carteblanchetv What are the impacts of this on offspring of that child and future generations? Is this not going to increase the chances of genetic disorders?
I did another blog. Give it a read if you get a spare few minutes! Love to hear your comments as always!

This week is a simple hip and glute complex for runners and triathletes
Try them 2-3 times a week to start ....... enough resistance to complete 8-15 reps 3-4 times and add more resistance when easy. Also works well as a circuit
Give them a go and let me know how you get on 👍
