Mind Map of our 🚨 New Research Published 🚨

Elite athletes are exposed to many types of load, not just training and competition, but also psychosocial stressors and dual-career demands.

📊 Our recent study in Frontiers in Sports and Active Living shows that:

- Training & competition loads are key predictors of both injury and illness.

- Life stressors significantly shape vulnerability to health problems.

- Dual-career engagement may actually serve as a protective factor.

This publication is the result of Kristina Drole’s 4-year PhD journey 🧑‍🎓. What an incredible achievement and contribution to our field 👏 👏 👏

🙏 A big thank you goes also to all the athletes, coaches, and medical staff who made this research possible through their commitment and collaboration.
