They were really low. Even cortisol was low. Cortisol is the stress-release hormone we churn out when exercising and living, and when that drops low, it’s a real warning sign that you’re so beat up that your adrenal glands simply can’t keep up with your extreme endurance lifestyle anymore!

So what did I recommend to this triathlete to “take care of his body” and bounce back from overtraining and adrenal fatigue?

1. Eat a ton of really nutrient dense foods. No caloric depletion or “going hungry” for at least 4 weeks. Some of my favorite nutrient dense foods include:

1. Eggs, with the yolk 

2. Sea vegetables

3. Organ meats

4. Bone Broth

5. Shellfish

6. Natto

7. Dark Fruits/Veggies

8. Fermented Foods

9. Turmeric/Curries

10. Coldwater Fish

11. Grass-Fed Beef

2. Get rid of items that tend to aggravate the adrenal glands and make fatigue worse. This includes:

1. Banana, dried figs, raisins, dates, oranges, grapefruit (high potassium fruits)

2. Fruit and juice in the morning

3. Refined flour products such as pasta,white rice, bread, pastry and baked goods.

4. High amounts of fructose from honey, syrups, and soft drinks, as well as dried fruits and concentrated fruit juice.

5. Adrenal stimulants such as coffee,tea,black tea,hot chocolate, alcohol, colas, and chocolates.

6. Heated oils and fats, especially vegetable oils

7. Rushed and hectic meals

3. No fasted workouts or intermittent fasting and going “hungry” during workouts. Instead, eat a big breakfast with lots of proteins and fats and don’t try to lose lots of weight during workouts, which can be stressful to your body during a state of overtraining or adrenal fatigue.

4. 2-4 weeks of easy, aerobic workouts only (no hard intervals or “monster training sessions), along with some kind of yoga, meditation, or very relaxing movement each morning.

5. Consider using the following supplements:

1. Chinese adaptogenic herbs

2. High electrolyte intake, preferably with liquid trace minerals and/or Himalayan sea salt

3. High dose vitamin D at 35IU per pound of body weight and huge amounts of morning sun exposure

4. Taking 2,000 to 5,000 milligrams of vitamin C each day

5. Supplementing vitamin E with mixed tocopherols (i.e. from a good fish oil)

6. Taking B-complex supplements that are high in B6 and pantothenic acid, which tend to be depleted during adrenal fatigue

7. Red ginseng at around 6g/day

8. Adding licorice root extract to dietary supplement regimen. 200-400 mg a day of a licorice extract standardized to contain 5 percent glycyrrhizic acid.

Overtraining and adrenal fatigue can significantly affect your performance, your hormones, and even your libido and fertility (which is a serious issue for lots of endurance athletes!).

If this is something that you’re interested in or concerned about, and you (or someone you know) is worried about overtraining or adrenal fatigue, you may also be interested in a free hormones video Q&A that I’ll be teaching this Tuesday night at 6:30PST.

LAGUNA LĂNG CÔ – VIETNAM AIRLINES TRIATHLON 2013

Thua Thien Hue Province, Vietnam, 14 April 2013 – Italian Massimo Cigana and Radka Vodickova of the Czech Republic added to their Asian triathlon credentials by becoming the first male and female Champions at the inaugural Laguna Lăng Cô – Vietnam Airlines Triathlon 2013, each recording sub-three hour race finishes at the new Laguna Lăng Cô integrated resort in central Vietnam.

The pair – both three-time Champions of sister event Laguna Phuket Triathlon – made their experience count against an elite pro field that included two-time Ironman World Champion Chris McCormack of Australia and fellow Australian Ironman veteran Belinda Granger.

Both had to battle hard against the field and also against weather conditions, with the opening 1.8km swim leg proving a challenge in a heavy sea before the 62km bike and 12km run.

Cigano finished with a swim of 00:16:39; a bike of 01:22:49 and run of 00:47:00, for an overall time of 2:28:29. McCormack, was out of the swim nearly two minutes ahead of Cigana but was then overtaken by the Italian bike specialist and pushed further back on the run to finish in second place 11 minutes behind Cigana in an overall time of 02:39:46. His fellow Australian Justin Granger was third in 02:49:49.

In the women’s field, Czech Olympian Vodickova  and Granger were neck and neck on the swim and bike courses with Vodickova holding a lead of just 24 seconds as she began the run, a lead she stretched to more than three minutes at the finish line. She won with a swim of 00:16:04; bike of 01:42:10 and run of 00:51:38 for an overall time of 02:52:14. Granger, wife of men’s third-placed Justin Granger, finished six minutes behind her husband in 02:55:30. Phuket-based age grouper Sarah Wheeler of the UK had a magnificent race to finish third woman in 03:16:30 and also win her 35-39 age group.

The inaugural Laguna Lăng Cô – Vietnam Airlines Trithlon saw more than 200 athletes from 28 countries contesting the course in a race which is the sister event of the legendary Laguna Phuket Triathlon, now in its 20th year.

Champion Cigana said: “It was a very beautiful race, a fun swim, very fast scenic bike course and a lovely run through the golf course. I enjoyed it very much and I’ll be happy to be here next year to defend my title – I hope to bring many more Italians to race at Laguna Lăng Cô.”

Vodickova commented: “I loved everything about my first experience to race in Vietnam – the course, the great organisation and all the friendly and enthusiastic people. I came here to be part of this triathlon as I think it will have a long history like Laguna Phuket Triathlon – I am so proud to be the first women’s champion at Laguna Lăng Cô.”
