  • I love this podcast!!

    The what drives us bananas episodes are so good! They are so helpful because it helps open my mind to what you see only is not necessarily right for you . Like the I seen earlier today (when a fitness coach on social media says it’s a rest day and then shows her self out for a 2 mile run!!!) Like what happened to the rest part?

    Thank you for sharing helpful information and advice.

  • Great Podcast!

    After losing my period during half marathon training, I found this podcast. Jenna and Reilly share small tips that are rad to implement, and they’re so fun to listen to. I also realized how undercarbed I’ve been for years, and I’ve taken a lot of their advice for how to slowly increase my carb intake. I really wish I had had this resource when I was a college athlete!

168. Sports Dietitian Reacts: Why These Viral Diet Trends Are Ruining Your Recovery
Q: What's driving you bananas this week?
GLP-1s and their marketing, including ads that push quick fixes, while overlooking the nuanced risks and the importance of individualized medical guidance.
163. Winning HYROX and Recovering My Period: Athlete Story
Q: Can you describe the key changes between your first and second High Rocks competitions that helped you perform better?
We identified under-fueling as the main limiter, increased fats and carbs, optimized post-workout fueling with chocolate milk, and followed a gradual, coach-guided progression that built confidence and performance.
156. How Busy College Life Lead to Accidental Under-eating and Period Loss
Q: Was there a singular turning point in her recovery, or was it a collection of changes?
There wasn't a single turning point; it was a culmination of small, sustainable changes across day-to-day routines that added up over time to restore her cycle.
156. How Busy College Life Lead to Accidental Under-eating and Period Loss
Q: What role did recovery and training balance play in getting her period back?
Recovery days were non-negotiable, with a focus on reducing total daily steps on weekends and maintaining activity she enjoyed, which helped her body recover and support hormonal adjustments.
