The Subtle Signs of Physical Over-Extensionwith Allison Yamamoto, former NCAA cheerleader, sports nutritionist and founder of the Koa Foundation
Today I talk with Allison Yamamoto, sports nutritionist and founder of Koa Foundations Program about REDS - Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport which you may have never heard of but might already have! REDS is common in athletes but can easily happen to the average hobby runner and over worked fitness enthusiast. REDS has come up as part of many conversations here on Busy Body and I’m so glad to devote an entire episode to this important topic!
Allison was kind enough to extend a free stress relief resource to Busy Body listeners HERE

I teach beginner strength and stability via The Self Paced Series as well as several restorative classes and workshops including Anti-Anxiety Cardio and Fascia Release™ all of which are designed to gently shift our bodies into balance without the ableist, fat shaming ‘sweat is fat crying’ mentality that infects so much of mainstream fitness.
