It's no secret that people with anorexia often engage in excessive amounts of exercise. When you combine that hallmark restlessness with neurodivergent traits like anxiety, perseverance, masking, and a constant state of fight-or-flight mode, you have the perfect storm for exercise addiction. But what if these same traits could become powerful tools in ED recovery? In the second installment of this 2-part series on Autism and Anorexia Athletica, Livia Sara explains how to transform movement from an escape into an energetic outlet. You'll discover how three autistic traits can influence our relationship with exercise and how to harness them for healing. Episode highlights: How the athletic identity can serve as a mask for autism and why creating a new identity is crucial for recovery Why viewing "compulsive" movement as adaptive behavior can shift our understanding of exercise addiction How nervous system dysregulation drives the urge to move in autistic individuals The paradox of how restrictions can increase the urge to move, and what to do about it The power of creating "freedom routines" that provide structure while allowing flexibility Resources mentioned:

When you think of exercise addiction and eating disorders, you might picture someone trying to burn calories or using movement as punishment. But for neurodivergent individuals, the story often looks different. In today's episode, host Livia Sara shares her journey with exercise addiction through an autistic lens, challenging common misconceptions and offering a fresh perspective on the complex relationship between autism, movement, and eating disorders. You'll learn: How the athlete identity can become a mask for undiagnosed autism Why labels like "compulsive exercise" may oversimplify the complex motivations behind movement in autistic individuals How exercise restrictions in treatment can trigger PDA (demand avoidance) in neurodivergent folks Why understanding the connection between autism and movement is a crucial component of neurodiversity-affirming ED recovery This episode kicks off a powerful two-part series examining how autism can influence our relationship with exercise and how traditional treatment approaches might actually backfire for neurodivergent individuals. Stay tuned for Part 2, where we'll explore three key autistic traits that can influence exercise addiction and how to transform them into tools for recovery. Connect with Livia:

La candidature du président Joe Biden pour sa réélection continue de faire débat. Toutes les prises de parole, toutes les apparitions publiques sont méticuleusement scrutées par les médias. Le New York Times note que Joe Biden a prononcé son discours d'ouverture pour le sommet de l'OTAN qui a débuté hier (9 juillet 2024) à Washington avec « une voix forte et très peu d'erreurs ». Même appréciation positive du site d'information Politico. « Sous les yeux du monde entier, le président Joe Biden a prononcé un discours énergique…, visant à dissiper les doutes dans son pays quant à son aptitude à occuper la présidence, tout en se vantant d'avoir revitalisé l'alliance historique et sauvé l'Ukraine sous sa direction ».Selon Politico, Joe Biden a pour l'instant réussi à faire taire la plupart de ses critiques internes. Il «…a décidé de poser un ultimatum à ses détracteurs : parler ou se taire. Pour l'instant, la grande majorité des législateurs démocrates se taisent », souligne Politico.  Donald Trump reprend la campagne, se moque de Joe BidenMais il y en a un qui prend la parole, c'est son rival Donald Trump. Le candidat républicain a déversé mardi (9 juillet 2024) lors d'un meeting dans son golf à Miami un torrent d'invectives contre son rival démocrate Joe Biden. Selon le Miami Herald Donald Trump « s'est lâché sur le président Joe Biden » après quelques jours de retenue. Il s'est moqué de la performance de son rival lors du débat présidentiel du mois dernier, estimant que le parti démocrate sombre dans le chaos car « il n'arrive pas à décider lequel de ses candidats est le plus inapte à être président ». Et l'ex-président de conclure : « Peu importe le candidat désigné, nous battrons n'importe lequel d'entre eux ». Joe Biden lâché par l'électorat afro-américain ? C'est en tout cas le récit que Donald Trump tente de répandre dans les médias et sur les réseaux sociaux. Il s'appuie sur certains sondages qui montrent cette tendance surprenante: de plus en plus d'électeurs noirs seraient prêts à voter pour le candidat républicain. Notre correspondant aux États-Unis, David Thomson, a interrogé Cliff Albright, le président Black Voters Matter, l'une des ONG les plus actives aux États-Unis pour mobiliser les électeurs afro-américains. Cliff Albright ne confirme pas cette tendance et estime que les Noirs continuent à voter démocrate, partiellement aussi à cause du bon bilan de Joe Biden en matière de politique de santé.À lire aussiPrésidentielle américaine: «On ne peut pas imaginer une bascule des électeurs noirs en faveur des républicains»Garry Conille visite l'Hôpital général de Port-au-PrinceAccompagné par le chef de la PNH, le Premier ministre haïtien Garry Conille s'est rendu à l'Hôpital général de Port-au-Prince qui a été repris dimanche dernier (7 juillet 2024) des mains des gangs qui l'occupaient depuis des mois. Le Nouvelliste précise que Garry Conille s'y est rendu sous « fortes escortes policières. Les autorités ont découvert ce qui reste du plus grand centre hospitalier du pays après des mois passés entre les mains des bandits », souligne le Nouvelliste. Le Premier ministre, médecin lui-même, n'a pas caché sa surprise devant les restes de l'hôpital, écrit le journal de Port-au-Prince « Il y a des murs et une adresse mais il n'y a plus d'hôpital fonctionnel ».

Le meeting international d'athlétisme de Genève, AtletiCA, est organisé, samedi, au stade du Bout-du-Monde. Pablo Cassina, son organisateur, était invité de Béatrice Rul, à 7h30, sur Radio Lac.Ce samedi, le meeting d'athlétisme de Genève, Athletica. Comment se passe ce sprint final…"On souhaiterait avoir quelques jours de plus pour finaliser les détails. Mais en même temps, il y a un engouement incroyable avec une électricité positive. Beaucoup d'athlètes sont arrivés, quelques uns depuis une semaine. On va accueillir beaucoup d'athlètes de nombreux pays".Un beau plateau avec notamment le récent champion d'Europe du 200 mètres, le Genevois, Timothé Mumenthaler:"Il sera, effectivement, là mais sur 100 mètres. Il faut s'imaginer la pression soudaine qu'il a vécue après ce titre. Il a donc préféré ne pas prendre de risques, notamment musculaire, on va donc le voir sur 100 mètres et ça va être une merveille".Vous avez reçu beaucoup de demandes, en cette année olympique:"Tous les quatre ans, on a un pic de demandes. Il y a des enjeux très forts, les athlètes doivent faire des meetings et des points pour se qualifier pour les J.O. Samedi, on aura 250 athlètes qui ne sont pas encore qualifiés. AtletiCA demande une année de travail, presque quotidien, en tant que bénévole".

Recently I have been receiving a lot of questions from older athletes (folks in their late 50's and older) asking about HIIT in their training. There is obviously a concern about any training that pushes you and your heart close to the maximum, and because of this many folks are wondering whether it's worth the risk. Even if your heart can cope, you may wondering about whether you will recover adequately, or if such high end training will lead to an injury. Maybe it's better just to be cautious and do lots of Zone 2 work. This might work for some, but as you'll hear from today's guest, Prof Paul Laursen, HIIT training is not only appropriate for older athletes, it is a must if you wish to continue competing at your highest level.   In this chat I've tried to anticipate your questions and concerns, so we talk about: Should older athletes still be doing HIIT work? Why is HIIT important for older athletes? Are there any forms of HIIT that older athletes should avoid? Is heavy strength training classed as HIIT? How long should each HIIT session last and how often should I be doing them?

At this point, Sharpe was alone at the front and whilst riding strong, looked in grave danger of being caught sooner rather than later.   By the 42km mark Sharpe was still in the lead, with +0:13 over Long, but by the time they came through the next checkpoint at 55km, Long had managed to put a remarkable +1:29 into Sharpe in the space of 13km and looked good, as he built up a buffer of over two minutes to the likes of Sanders and Appleton.   Coming off the bike, Long was in control, as defending champion Sharpe, joined by Sanders and Leiferman, rolled into transition close to four minutes down on the Boulder native.   Through the first half of the run, Long looked in control, as his lead remained intact and his competitors seemed more focused on the battle for second, with Sharpe and Sanders trading blows after dropping Leiferman, who despite losing touch with the Canadians had more than three minutes to his closest rival.   By 18.5km, Long had a five minute buffer and looked on course to take his third successive middle distance win, as Leiferman made his way back past Sharpe and up to Sanders, with the real battle between this duo as they made their way into the final couple of miles.   As Long took the tape after a dominant performance from the minute he stepped on to the bike, Leiferman dropped Sanders and looked to be clear, until Sanders grappled his way back on to the shoulder of the BMC athlete, with the pair neck and neck going into the finishing straight.   Sam Long wins IRONMAN 703 Gulf Coast 2023 [Photo credit: Julio Aguilar / Getty Images for IRONMAN] [Photo credit: Julio Aguilar / Getty Images for IRONMAN] Misjudging the sharp corner into the finishing chute, Leiferman ceded the inside line to Sanders which proved to be a big mistake, as the Canadian prevailed in the sprint finish to take second place by a whisker, with Boulder based Leiferman celebrating his first race since Kona with a podium.   Pro Women – Knibb goes gun to tape In the women's field, all eyes were on 2022 IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion Taylor Knibb, who in her return to non-draft racing after surgery had opted to race her first middle distance since the world championships at an event close to home, despite the focus for the American continuing to be the Olympic Games next year.   Exiting the water, Knibb was at the front of the race, having swam with fellow American Lauren Brandon, who came into transition alongside the reigning world champion. Behind, Kiwi Teresa Adam was next out at +1:32, with Rachel Olson hot on her heels and Lawrence at +1:53, with recent IRONMAN 70.3 St George winner Metzler at +2:11.   Despite taking her time to put socks on in transition, Knibb quickly reeled in Brandon who was first out of transition and powered past her compatriot to take the lead, building a gap of almost three minutes by the 28km mark with the rest of the field unchanged behind her.   At 42km, Knibb was clear, as Adams passed Brandon and Lawrence began to work her way up to the podium positions, gapping Metzler and Olsen. By 69km, with Knibb +5:19 to Adams, the race seemed to be for the remaining spots on the podium, as Lawrence flew past Brandon and started closing down on the Kiwi.   By the time they reached transition, Knibb had +6:36 over Lawrence in second, who had not managed to shake Adams over the last few kilometres of the bike, as both came into T2 within 10 seconds of each other, but crucially close to four minutes ahead of strong runner Metzler.   By the 7.7km time split, Knibb's lead had continued to grow, as Lawrence built a big buffer to third place Metzler, who was looking very strong but still had a three minute gap to make up on second place. By 13.7km, with Knibb clear, Metzler was keeping things interesting by continuing to reel in Lawrence, who was holding strong in second but losing time.   Over the final few kilometres, as Knibb took the tape in commanding fashion after a gun to tape win, Metzler kept chasing hard, narrowing the gap down to just +0:50 at 18.5km to set up an exciting finale between the pair. Lawrence, however, rallied to hold on to second, with Metzler coming through for third.   Advertisements IRONMAN 70.3 Boulder 2023 Results Saturday June 10, 2023 – 1.9km / 90km / 21.1km   Pro Men 1.

Alicia Woodside This article originally appeared on Trail Runner   Look across the internet and you'll find many different options for trail and ultrarunning coaches. In a May 2022 survey fielded by the American Trail Running Association, 14 percent of trail runners had coaches, and 4 percent were considering getting a coach.   With new Artificial Intelligence (AI) innovations, like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's newly-released Bard, will AI coaches compete with human coaches? How will these emerging technologies affect coaching as we know it?   What is AI (Artificial Intelligence)? If you ask ChatGPT to define itself, it will say: "the development of computer systems that can perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and language translation."   The reason AI has become the tech world's darling is that there have been incredible advances in a type of AI known as "Large Language Models," or LLMs. These models use natural language processing and have the capacity to quickly complete complex tasks. The company OpenAI is leading the way with ChatGPT, which can do things like summarize a long body of text, infer meaning, transform data from one language or format to another, and even expand text: you can literally give the model one sentence and ask it to complete your paragraph.   According to Stanford University's Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence group, the new models are incredibly powerful: "These models have already been used to co-author Economist articles and award-winning essays, co-create screenplays, and co-construct testimonies before the U.S. Senate."   How AI is Being Used in Coaching Today A December 2022 report by McKinsey & Company found that AI adoption by companies has more than doubled globally since 2017, with 50 percent of companies stating that they've adopted AI in some form.   Currently, we have yet to see an app that's fully leveraging the new technology to coach trail runners. Instead, what you'll find is a growing marketplace of digital training tools that use existing, more stable forms of AI, like machine learning. These apps can analyze your data and dynamically adjust your plan, based on pace, heart rate, and in some cases, power meter data. Companies leading the way include TrainAsONE, AIEndurance, Athletica, HumanGo, and enduco.   And I will add Predictive Fitness to the list.   What's New in the 303:   Cyclists For Community, A Look Inside Their Work in 2023 By Bill Plock   June 14, 2023--Wide shoulders, bike paths, and any infrastructure installed or improved to provide safer cycling just don't happen. They are advocated for, fought for and voted for. It's hard to get most times and comes with a great deal of strategy and relationship building–and money.   This is a copy of Cyclists For Community's (C4C) latest update of all of their activities and initiatives so far in 2023. It's interesting to learn about all the projects and initiatives on their plate.   Included is a link to all the road and infrastructure projects happening in Boulder County–the costs of projects, impact, and timing.   Even if you don't live or ride in this area, this is an example of what a local advocacy group can do. We have many, many groups in Colorado that have a massive impact on improving cycling whether it be on road or dirt.   Here is a list from Bicycle Colorado of all of the local advocacy organizations.   The rest, from Matt Muir of C4C   When you donate and support C4C, these posts show where your support goes. C4C's annual fundraising gala, Crank It Forward, took place in May 2023.  It was a big success, thank you to everyone who helped.  Here's a look at where the $91,000 (the updated figure as of June 14) raised at Crank It Forward is going.   Bicycle Colorado This dataset shows all CO crashes in 2021.
