Mind Pump host warns loss of periods can signal under-fuelling and overtraining in weight-class sports

What was said

"You see this common with with girls sports anyway, but especially with a weight class sport is they don't they lose their period. That's a big sign right there. You lose your period. Uh we're not eating enough and we're overtraining."

In advice to a parent of a teenage wrestler, an unidentified host says body dysmorphia risk is high in weight-controlled sports and warns that losing menstruation is a major red flag indicating insufficient eating and overtraining. The host also argues young athletes often do better adding muscle and competing at a higher weight rather than repeatedly cutting weight.
