Indicators and Correlates of Low Energy Availability in Female and Male Pre- Professional Contemporary Dancers

Abstract

Sports that regard low body weight as a prerequisite to success often display higher rates of low energy availability (LEA) and relative energy deficiency in sport (RED-S) within their athlete population. Previous research in dance has focused on individuals trained in classical ballet, finding them to be at high risk for LEA and RED-S, but little is known about dancers of other genres. The objective of this study was therefore to investigate the indicators and correlates of LEA in pre-professional contemporary dancers
