Summary

This study follows 40 elite triathletes over two competitive seasons to see how their energy availability impacts performance, injury risk, and overall health. Participants continue their normal training and diet while undergoing periodic tests like blood samples and body scans. The goal is to identify early warning signs of low energy availability, which can harm health and athletic output. No experimental treatments are given—this is purely observational.
