Male and female athletes put in the same amount of work at the gym or on the track, but their nutritional needs are slightly different.
The vast majority of fitness-focused content—and products—are typically aimed at male athletes. At STEEL Supplements, however, it’s a top priority to provide specific nutrition for not only the particular style of exercise being completed but also differing male and female physiology.
STEEL has curated a list of Women-Friendly supplements formulated for the precise needs of female athletes. These products will deliver exactly what is needed to keep them functioning at ideal rates of performance before, during, and after every training session, no matter how intense.
Understanding Female Nutrition and Energy Needs
There are a few women-specific nutritional and energy requirements necessary to take into account [1][2][3]:
- Protein needs for female athletes range from 1.2 to 2.0 grams per kilogram of body weight per day.
- Female athletes are most prone to deficiencies in B-vitamins (thiamin, riboflavin, and folate), Vitamin D, calcium, zinc, and iron.
- In general, female athletes will need more sodium, potassium, water, and energy (via calories) than non-athletic females. Thankfully, a balanced diet can provide the majority of these nutrients, especially when paired with athletic supplements. For more intense training sessions, a glycogen and electrolyte replenishment formula may come in handy.
- Female athletes, particularly those who compete in thin-build sports (such as long-distance running) or physique competitions, are at a higher risk of amenorrhea, osteoporosis, and disordered eating.
STEEL Supplements has dedicated itself to maximizing health by optimizing nutritional intake. All of their Women-Friendly supplements are formulated to provide the specific combination micro and macro compounds required to maintain and improve fitness.
