"female athlete sydrome"=female athlete triad=disordered eating+amenorrhea+osteoporosis
(in case people don't read the article and misunderstand about the "syndrome" part)

I haven't read the article yet but if it's credible Spragwa is doing you all a huge favor.

I'm sorry, but who was asking for advice on nutrition? I didn't see anyone asking.

Doing us all a favor? That's quite an assumption that the ones reading this are unhealthy.

chick climbers are cool- its obvious its good for their self esteem and confidence in all matters pertaining to life- although it seems to make most of them a bit commitment shy-did I say chick climbers are cool?

I'm pretty shy about committing to this board. I figure in a few more years I'll know if it's right for me or not.

shy of what types of commitment? (and I think you should continue with the compliments as you answer......)

I'd say commitment to gear placements without jerk testing the hell out of them first. Not that I speak from personal experience.

You jerk test your cams? I didn't think anyone else arounmd here but Don and Tackett used passive gear.

I jerk test all gear. It's sad, I know.
