Low energy availability is known to negatively affect muscle strength, athletic performance, and overall neuromusculoskeletal health. Recent studies have begun to show that low energy availability may also reduce expected neuromusculoskeletal responses to physical exercise and training (for example, minimal strength gains in response to resistance training). This systematic review sought to compile the existing evidence about neuromusculoskeletal responses to training among individuals with low energy availability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>How did the study go about this?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The study team searched for published studies that assessed any neuromusculoskeletal outcome (i.e., strength, performance) after a physical training intervention of any type or duration among individuals with low energy availability. The search spanned across six databases, and sets of two reviewers screened 3,388 articles by title, abstract, and full text as needed to determine if they would fit the study question. The research team reviewed each included study to determine low energy availability status, the types of training interventions, and neuromusculoskeletal outcomes. Unfortunately, there were differences in research methods across studies, and so it was not possible to look at combined neuromusculoskeletal outcomes. However, the research team looked at common findings across studies to provide the best current evidence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>What did the study find?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There were 21 studies included in the review. Nine studies directly prescribed the physical training, which often included endurance-based activities (i.e., running, cycling) at a moderate intensity. The most consistent findings across all included studies were that low energy availability led to a decrease in lean muscle mass (or fat-free mass) following a physical intervention (found in 10 studies), or that there was no major response in lean muscle mass to training (found in 10 studies). Six studies found that those with low energy availability had impaired functional or sport-specific performance (for example, slower performance on a timed 2-mile run test). Several other studies looked at strength and other neuromusculoskeletal health\/performance outcomes, and all found that those low energy availability had impaired outcomes in response to training.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>What are the key take-home points?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Overall, the current evidence shows that low energy availability may either lead to worse neuromusculoskeletal outcomes in response to training, or that low energy availability may blunt training responses with minimal changes in desired adaptations over time. Coaches, athletes, and clinicians should be aware of the current threats to training responses associated with under-fueling to achieve desired responses to physical training, sport, and exercise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11794\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bjsm\/files\/2025\/12\/LEANMSKInfographic_BJSM_11.14.25-212x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"671\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bjsm\/files\/2025\/12\/LEANMSKInfographic_BJSM_11.14.25-212x300.jpg 212w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bjsm\/files\/2025\/12\/LEANMSKInfographic_BJSM_11.14.25-768x1086.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bjsm\/files\/2025\/12\/LEANMSKInfographic_BJSM_11.14.25-1086x1536.jpg 1086w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bjsm\/files\/2025\/12\/LEANMSKInfographic_BJSM_11.14.25-1448x2048.jpg 1448w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bjsm\/files\/2025\/12\/LEANMSKInfographic_BJSM_11.14.25-640x905.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bjsm\/files\/2025\/12\/LEANMSKInfographic_BJSM_11.14.25.jpg 1587w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Authors:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Alexandra F.
