The Utility of the Low Energy Availability in Females Questionnaire to Detect Markers Consistent With Low Energy Availability-Related Conditions in a Mixed-Sport Cohort

International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, 2021
The Low Energy Availability in Females Questionnaire (LEAF-Q) was validated to identify risk of the female athlete triad (triad) in female endurance athletes. This study explored the ability of the LEAF-Q to detect conditions related to low energy availability (LEA) in a mixed sport cohort of female athletes.

Female Recreational Exercisers at Risk for Low Energy Availability

International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, 2016
Low energy availability (LEA) describes the disruption in normal physiological function existent when insufficient energy intake is combined with exercise. To conserve energy a range of endocrine adaptations occur, impairing health and athletic performance.

Prevalence of Indicators of Low Energy Availability in Elite Female Sprinters

International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, 2018
Low energy availability (LEA), and subsequent relative energy deficiency in sport, has been observed in endurance, aesthetic, and team sport athletes, with limited data on prevalence in athletes in short-burst activities such as sprinting. We examined prevalence of signs and symptoms of LEA in elite female sprinters at the start of the training season (

Low Energy Availability in the Marathon and Other Endurance Sports

Sports Medicine, 2007
Energy availability is the amount of dietary energy remaining after exercise training for all other metabolic processes. Excessively low energy availability impairs reproductive and skeletal health, although genetics and age may alter an individual's initial conditions and sensitivity when low energy availability is imposed.

Impact of Low Energy Availability on Skeletal Health in Physically Active Adults

Calcified Tissue International, 2022
For decades researchers reported that pre-menopausal women who engage in extensive endurance exercise and have menstrual dysfunction can develop low bone mineral density (BMD) or osteoporosis. More recently, low energy availability has been recognized as the initiating factor for low BMD in these women.

Low Energy Availability, Carbohydrate Intake, and Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport: The Low Triiodothyronine Hypothesis

International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance
Background: Recent research findings suggest that a daily diet containing low carbohydrate (LCHO) consumption coupled with low energy availability (LEA, specifically what is termed problematic LEA [P-LEA]) exacerbates the risk of developing relative energy deficiency ...

Where are all the men? Low energy availability in male cyclists: A review

European Journal of Sport Science, 2020
AbstractMost of the low energy availability (LEA) research has been conducted in female populations. The occurrence of LEA in male athletes is not well known, even with an understanding of the components involved in and contributing to LEA. Cycling is a major risk factor for LEA due to inherent sports characteristics: low impact, high energy demands ...

Prevalence of low energy availability and burnout syndrome in female athletes

The Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness
Optimal athletic performance requires balancing training with adequate recovery and energy intake. Failure to do this can result in low energy availability (LEA). This study investigated the prevalence of LEA and burnout syndrome in an athletic population and explored potential relationships between these conditions.In this cross-sectional study ...

Assessment of the range of energy availabilities and the prevalence of low energy availability among female endurance athletes

2012
Research indicates that energy availability below 30 kcal•kg FFM-1•day-1 suppresses reproductive hormones and markers of bone formation while energy balance is hypothesized to occur at an energy availability of 45 kcal•kg FFM-1•day-1. Nonetheless, available evidence suggests that few female athletes achieve energy availabilities of 45 kcal•kg FFM-1 ...

Low Energy Availability in Exercising Women: Historical Perspectives and Future Directions

Sports Medicine, 2016
Research on the health of female athletes has developed substantially over the past 50 years. This review aims to provide an overview of this research and identify directions for future work. While early cross-sectional studies focused primarily on menstruation, research has progressed to now encompass hormonal changes, bone health and lipid profiles ...
