This week, after a Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift debrief, Corrine Malcolm and Hillary Allen take on RED-S and low energy availability through Hillary’s own recent experience with injury and recovery. What started as overreaching and under-recovery became a bigger lesson in how training stress, work stress, life changes, sleep, fueling, and healing all draw from the same finite pool of energy.
They talk about:
why RED-S can affect athletes at any size
why it isn’t synonymous with disordered eating
how low energy availability can slow injury recovery
and why even athletes who understand the science can still miss the signs in themselves.
It’s a candid, practical conversation about listening sooner, fueling enough, and learning that stress is stress — no matter where it comes from.
