Summary

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.
