As we continue to roll through the Spring Season, we brought in Coach Erica Suter from Tampa, Florida. Coach Suter joined us to discuss the challenges facing female athletes in the High-Performance environment. Some of the biggest issues today come from poor information distributed over social media. Two examples include poor nutrition advice and a misunderstanding of how the menstrual cycle affects the female athlete. Coaches and performance professionals alike also tend to coddle athletes. Lastly, we discuss Erica’s new book, Female Athlete High Performance, and her motivation behind writing it.
Erica Suter is currently the owner of ES Performance where for the last 12 years she has been training female athletes of all levels. She is a former college All-American from Johns Hopkins and semi-professional soccer player who is now a Speed, Agility and Strength Coach who is dedicating her life to training female athletes. In addition to her business, Erica is the author of The Strong Female Athlete and Female Athlete High Performance.
