Actionable insights include:
- Tracking your period to get a sense of where you are in your cycle and how performance is affected by different phases of the cycle
- Getting further assessments if periods are being missed
- Working on single leg stance and balance to improve skiing (ie. in gym)
- Working on no-poles skiing frequently in warmups and workouts to enhance balance and glide.
