I know I’m late to this video but wanted to say how helpful it was to me so thank you! As a 38yo male my experience is that people either can’t conceive it’s possible or don’t want to hear you have an unhealthy relationship with body image and food. Your line about not being able to sit down with friends and family for a meal really hit me hard as I have not gone to so many events because the food won’t be my regular restricted diet. I have been constantly restricting while training hard for years, not being able to sleep, poor mood, signs of hormone issues the works. I didn’t realise what an issue it was until I was plagued with injuries during a marathon training block that culminated in a horrific tendinopathy 3 weeks before race day they I’m still dealing with 6 months later. Was I “race weight” on the start line? Sure but would have much rather been there and performed better had I been a couple of pounds heavier, well rested and without pain.

I want to gain weight to get my period but i dont want my belly fat to get increase i eant to keep the belly fat away

I work in a warehouse, I walk 9 miles every night on concrete floors and up and down steps. My legs are getting weaker and sore, with no improvement from resting on weekends. I asked for a move to a stationary work station. I can tell this will take awhile. This can happen to hard workers too !

Does anyone here have access to the ebook for FAQ, i seem not to hace access to it

I have fell into overtraining syndrome bfr and the symthoms are back.. i lift weights, heavy, im eqting like around 130gr Max of carbs, eating like around 1500kcal daily, sometimes 1700kcal.. i wight 132lbs and height 165cm.. not sure if im undereating but my body feels stressed all the time.. but back is always craking. My shoulders feel heavy like if i have a lot stress, i sleep very good though but yeah i wanted to loose weight and get to 125lbs but have not been able to ..i need some adv please

05:30 - This makes SO much sense right now. Even sleeping pills are not helping. And I did notice that if I get a snack I fall right back to sleep. I would have peanut butter sandwich. Thank you. I thought that Heart Rate Variation (HRV) is an indication? However, the on-line information is all over the place.

BJJ is really addictive !

Hello jill. Do you help males?

Did you experience overheating of your body during your overtraining process? I've been dealing with that, but I'm 75% recovered from Overtraining Syndrome. Ive had this condition for 2 months now. I got it from a prolonged workout routine of high intensity workouts and undereating. I gained 11 pounds and feeling more fully since then. My original symptoms were extremely bad. I had body sweats, extreme fatigue, nausea, and a little bit of insominia, but not as bad as others had.

I really enjoyed this interview. Dr. Nickols clearly understands the dedicated high achieving athlete and the pitfalls that we can fall into. I felt very seen.

..omg 😮 You are beautyful. (Just had to say it, sorry 🤭) My training addictìon, made my training volume soo high ..that I was completely immobilsed to anything else in my life. But was and still is a valuable sublimation tool against my "former" substance abuse. Been clean for years now, but balance is not my strong suite.

Entertaining.

I appreciate you jill. ❤

Hi @jilcolangelopsych, ik this is a late response to your video so any guidance would be amazingly appreciated. Im currently trying to get my period. Im not sure whether it’s due to not having enough carbs, I have about 120-130g a day, or if im not having enough calories, im averaging about 1780-1800, (female, 164cm, 31y/o, 50kg ish if that helps). I also workout fasted, 35 minutes hiit style Pilates with weights 5 days a week. Thanks so so much for any help and advice, I really need some guidance xx

Ayye am new to your channel i dont even know if i have amennorea i am 19 without menses or any breat can assist me?

Men don't get periods. Let's not go there.

I think everyone runs for these reasons though it just depends to what extent. The symptoms could make everyone believe they are addicted. We all feel a lift in our mood after exercise

Ive driven my body to complete burnout twice believing I can push my body as hard as I want and just beat it into submission and force it to do whatever I want. Im starting to accept maybe thats not true. I just kept telling myself to stop being weak and keep going.

What if walking is the compulsion?

Hi, I have had this issue with all my ultramarathons and recently had to DNF at mile 60 of a 100m race. My fingers, feet and abdomen swell, my kidneys are painful, my heart rate increases even with low effort, my energy decreases and urine output decreases and eventually stops. I have tried more sodium, less sodium, increasing calories, decreasing heart rate and effort, taking extra thyroid medication, etc. did you find a fix to continue running ultras?

I’m currently about to be 36 years old and I’ve only had my period one time when I was 15. Most of my life I’ve been overweight but probably not properly nourished. I was never that active either and after countless tests I was never given any answers or suggestions as to how I can fix this. I’m certain there is a disruption in my communication system but up til this very moment I have felt so alone because most people cannot relate (or so I thought) thank you for continuing to provide this important education.

What is the optimal body fat % for a woman to be strong have regular cycle energy and great hormonal balance? Anyone knows?

Yes!! I was cheering the whole time. This cannot be said enough. There is so much focus on mechanical behavior (thank you for the new descriptor. I was calling it surface level before.) and so little on what is underneath. I'm really enjoying your videos so far.

Thank you for sharing your research findings Jill. I have thought this without any research just from my own personal experience and also being around other ultra endurance runners. I'm excited to continue to learn more.

it's been 3 years... hope I can get it back

Hard truth this is what I value !!

💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

Jill, you are absolutely awesome! The positive energy you spread is just charming!

One thing I thought was missed here was a lingering soreness; soreness from OTS is not the same as being sore from training volume IE - if your legs are sore for two weeks after training them good chance it’s OTS

Extreme chronic inflammation in my entire body, muscle aches, muscle heaviness, chronic fatigue, joint pain, out of breath and moodiness... ocd doesn't help switch off from overtraining but thank you for this 🙏

Love your videos, I can't even stress enough how helpful your content is for me!!!! Thank you so much!!

This is gold information. Thank you soo much for sharing! I’m just an average runner who bought a training plan earlier this year. A plan way ahead of my current fitness at the time. And I followed that plan to the T…. in regards to hitting target paces and miles each run, week after week. And so after 3 months of following this plan ,plus working a physically intensive job in construction and acquiring c-ptsd through narcissistic abuse, and getting a major demotion at work because of a performance drop due to my emotional stress, my body just caved in. One day I just couldn’t run the way I’d been used to. Despite a valiant effort my splits were just extremely slow. I felt like absolute garbage, and for days on end… even after stopping all training. It’s like my body completely lost the ability to recover. And it was so hard to explain this to anyone around me. Luckily I did my research and discovered the very meagerly available information about this topic and at least was able to convince myself this is what I had. But yea, it’s so crazy to me how you found this treasure trove of information about this rare sickness. Your channel deserves way more credit. Keep up the awesome work!! 😁👍

I had a hunch there was a relationship here. I am also ADHD and have a tendency to abuse exercise. I honestly abuse anything "fun". I use it all up until the dopamine isn't hitting anymore 😂

I experienced OTS after 6+ years of excessice HIIT and 2+ hour lifting sessions. And it wasn't nice. I'm currently recovering. I'm female and it tanked my testosterone, sent my cortisol through the roof, led to anemia, immuno-suppression, low b12, irregular menstrual cycles/infertility, depression, chronic aches and pains and even weight gain because I was so restrictive so long, I developed a binge eating disorder. Now I'm realizing, less is more and I now have a proper 3 day a week strength training schedule and aim to get 8k + steps daily and focus on getting enough protein and whole foods and fiber and now I enjoy exercise again

Can we do one video on all 64 genders?

Anyone else feel like their whole body has restless leg syndrome?

Great chat.

The guys doing this to themselves should stop running and switch to bodybuilding. Their testosterone will rebound so hard it will be like a small steroid cycle. Once I quit running after college (D1 track), i gained 28 lbs of muscle in 8 months with mostly just calisthenics/bodyweight training. If they still want to run just do interval training or partially anaerobic runs and keep sessions under 30 mins, and the milage like 25 miles a week.

I do not understand how you are walking with a tear. I walk a few feet and very painful. 😢

I have a tear and have walked religiously most days for years. (Brisk walking) Please let me know how you are today. Please.

There I was training just about everyday, all sets to failure, after a poor nights sleep, hyped up on 4 cups of coffee, under eating and sessions over 60mins, walking 20k steps a day. Felt so deflated, retained water and strength just dropped.Switched to 2 cups of coffee, train every 2 days, 40 mins, 6 working sets each to failure. Eat more. Walk less. Sleep and nap more. Strength and endurance is better, pumps are insane. Trying to train to live, instead of living to train.

I tried FAi fix before my surgery it doesn't work then after 1 year and half decided to get surgery now I'm on 6 months post op I can't still walk without crutches 🩼 my knee hurts after my hip's surgery.

I have practiced martial arts for years and I knew that for full contact fights there was a price to pay. Now I run intensively and I knew that pushing it to the extreme has a price. In the end it is about risk-reward tradeoffs. I want to see what I am capable of and will push hard for a while, but like for martial arts I will quit after some time to limit any long term consequences. I look back fondly at my fights, but I have no desire for strike based fights in the future. I think it will be similar with Ultramarathons. If I manage to have some amazing races, then the effort and health cost of doing the same races again, just placing better might not be worth it.

Thank you for acknowledging this topic and your diligent assessment of relevant findings.

Can I see the video

Wondering if you dropped a lot of weight during the injury and were you doing deep squats during same time

What’s the doctors name you are referencing? Jack Ragland?

For me it isn't how many miles i run but rather not eating enough carbs. I have a family, full time job, and train for marathons. There are times where this all gets overwhelming and dont track my eating. There are times were i start to get over trained with just 20 miles in a week vs having a high carb diet feeling the overtraing at about 90 miles a week. My biggest symptoms is just wanting junk food, feeling tired all day, not having good rest at night, night sweats, and not enjoying the run.

Finally google algorithms did an acceptable job finding this video❤
