Underfuleing leads to a low energy state that affects every system in the body and leads to a serious condition called RED-S. The symptoms include reduced endurance and strength, menstrual issues, and reduced bone health. Gymnasts need to make sure they are eating enough to fuel not only practices but their daily activities and body process as well!

Many of the symptoms of the serious condition known as RED-S have been normalized in the sport of gymnastics. This is a dangerous tendency since RED-S is a low energy state that affects all body systems and its symptoms (decreased endurance, menstrual disfunction, and increased fatigue) are harmful to gymnasts both in and out of the gym.
