The Female Athlete

In this webinar, our coach, Cara McConnell, expertly covered the basics and essentials of what to know when working with female athletes. The key here is that female’s should not be treated just like they are small male athletes, which is typically what has happened traditionally. We need to work with the female physiology, not against. By the end of this video, you will have learned about the female sex hormones, the menstrual cycle and how the cycle affects physical performance and sleep. We also cover a condition that is highly prevalent in female athletes, especially at the elite level, the Female Athlete Triad.
