🔥 Welcome to the team, Olympians Swimming @olympia 🔥 Welcome to the team, Olympians Swimming @olympiansswimming 

We're proud to officially partner with Olympians Swimming - the #1 ranked club in Canada 🇨🇦, and our first-ever team partnership in the country. 

Genetic 🧬 sports performance doesn't stop at a border, and neither do we. 💪💪
Every. Single. Practice. Every. Single. Practice.
Your labs say "normal." Your body says otherwise. Your labs say "normal." Your body says otherwise.

Low ferritin can sit in the "normal" range on paper and still leave you tired, cold, dizzy, and struggling to keep up at practice.

"Normal" isn't the same as optimal, especially for a swimmer's demands.

Comment "ferritin" to start optimizing your levels for what your body actually needs in the pool. 🩸
"Normal" ferritin ≠ optimal ferritin... especially "Normal" ferritin ≠ optimal ferritin... especially if you train like an athlete. 🏊‍♀️

Swimmers place higher demands on their bodies, which means higher iron 🩸 needs. If you're just squeaking into the "normal" range but still dealing with headaches, feeling cold all the time, or constant exhaustion... normal probably isn't good enough for you.

Your labs might say fine. Your body is telling you something else. 😬
“Normal” on paper.... Your dark circles, declinin “Normal” on paper....

Your dark circles, declining aerobic capacity, headaches, dizziness, and disappearing energy say otherwise. 👀

Don’t mistake “normal” for optimal.
"Hey girl... have you had your ferritin checked?" "Hey girl... have you had your ferritin checked?" 👀

Not to alarm you, but if warmup feels like a main set, your hair's coming out in the shower, and you're shivering on deck in August...we need to talk about your iron stores.

🥶 Dizzy, freezing, pale post-practice

That's not "just needing more sleep." That's ferritin, the storage tank for the iron that carries oxygen to your muscles, running on empty.

Swimmers are quietly high-risk for this and almost nobody checks it until it's this bad.

👉 Don't guess - get ferritin checked with a full iron panel (not just hemoglobin, which can look "normal" while ferritin is already tanked). If you're a Beine Wellness client, this is exactly the kind of thing we look at along with other labs and genetic data to help create the best plan for you. 🏊‍♂️🏊‍♀️

Not a diagnosis, always test before you supplement, since too much iron carries its own risks.
