Dec 17, 2024

Here we are in the thick of holiday season and I’m sure many of you are feeling the stresses and strains of this time of year. Having just done my ninth international/long haul flight of the year, I know I’m feeling it! This also got me thinking about harnessing the power of your chronobiology [or circadian rhythms], which is a topic I’m seeing gaining more and more mainstream media attention.

But long before it hit social media, cold-water immersion was a Nordic tradition—often paired with saunas—as a way to build resilience, reset the mind, and connect socially. Those plunges weren’t just about recovery; they were about ritual, renewal, and communi...
Kisspeptin: What We Learned from Rodents—and How We’ve Moved On
  When I talk about female athletes, hormones, and health, I always start from a simple but critical foundation: energy availability. It’s the balance between how much energy you take in (from food) and how much you expend (through training, daily life, and basal metabolic rate). When that balance tips too far into the negative—too little energy coming in to meet your body’s demands—it can di...
