Female athletes are at an increased risk of developing the female athlete triad, which is associated with negative consequences to the performance and health of the athlete. An intervention for this population must be brief and easily incorporated into their daily schedule. Cell phones offer a viable option for connecting with female athletes who are at risk for the female athlete triad. The purpose of this study was to assess the utility of using text message reminders as a way to encourage female athletes at risk for the female athlete triad to increase their energy intake.
