Hydration

•Never underestimate the value of hydration

•Differences in thermoregulation exist between children and adult athletes

•Teen athletes are particularly poor at hydration

‐Thirst is not a good indicator of dehydration in sports

•AAP policy statement for children & adolescents8

‐Adolescents may consume up to 1-1.5 liters of fluids every hour of exercise

‐Who is at highest risk?

Food Is Fuel

•High school athletes tend to‐Skip breakfast

‐Eat at least one meal at school

‐Come to practice 4+ hours after eating

•Consequences of under-fueling5

‐Loss of lean body mass

‐Earlier fatigue/suboptimal performance

‐Increase risk for injury & illness

‐Prolonged recovery & healing

Water, milk, 100% juice, sports drinks

Page 20

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:17 AMPediatrics

Carbs are King!

•Main source of energy for working muscles & academic brain

•Inadequate carbohydrate consumption can lead to glycogen depletion

•Younger athletes have smaller gylcogen stores and more limited glycolytic capacity than adults12

© Katie Park – freerangestock.com

Page 21

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:18 AMPediatrics

Carbohydrates

•Low intensity, skill based athletes with large body mass or energy restriction

‐3-5g/kg/d

•Moderate Exercise Program ~1 hour per day

‐5-7g/kg/d

•Endurance Program 1-3 hour moderate to high intensity

‐7-10g/kg/d

•Extreme Commitment >4-5h per day moderate to high intensity

‐8-12g/kg/d

Page 22

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:18 AMPediatrics

Pre-workout Fuel

•Ideally 3-4 hours before event/practice, maybe again 1 hour before

•High in carbohydrate, low or moderate in protein, low in fat, low in fiber

•High individual tolerance

•Race day NOT a good time to try a new food!

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:18 AMPediatrics

During Exercise

•Prepubertal athletes may rely more on exogenous carbohydrate intake during exercise than post12

•30 grams (120 calories) of carbohydrate per hour during 1 to 2 hours of exercise

•60-90 gram (240-360 calories) of carbohydrate per hour for exercise lasting more than 2.5 hours

•Easily absorbed carbohydrates

‐Sports drinks, banana, gummy candy, gels, dried fruit

‐Swish and spit?

Protein5

•Post Pubertal Non exercising:

‐0.8 gm/kg/day

•Maintenance/Endurance athletes

‐1.2-1.4 gm/kg/day

•Strength/resistance athletes

‐1.4-1.8 gm/kg/day

•Teens

‐1.4-1.5 gm/kg/day (can be higher if actively growing)

•Most teens exceed this intake12

Page 25

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:18 AMPediatrics

Fat12

•Few studies have investigated fat intake for active teens

•Recommendations are the same as general for age

‐20-35% daily calories

•Younger athletes rely more on fat as fuel than adults

•Especially important for endurance athletes

•Restriction of fat intake in non-obese children may result in impaired growth and development

Page 26

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:18 AMPediatrics

Post-workout Fuel: Recovery5

•Muscles replenish energy stores most efficiently within 30 minutes after exercise

•Type of carbohydrate

‐Fructose alone less affective that glucose and sucrose

•Addition of protein promotes maximal repair and anabolism

‐Carbohydrate to protein ratio of 3:1 or 4:1

•Goal: 1.5 grams of carbohydrate per kg with 0.3-0.5 grams/protein/kg per 2 hour interval

Page 27

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:18 AMPediatrics

Key Nutrients of Interest5

•Calcium & Vitamin D

•Iron, Zinc, Magnesium

•B Vitamins

•Vitamin C, E, Beta carotene, selenium

•Sodium, chloride, potassium

•Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Use of a multivitamin supplement does not improve performance in athletes consuming nutritionally adequate diets

Page 28

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:19 AMPediatrics

Vegetarian Athletes5

•Variety & monitoring body weight/body composition is important to ensuring adequacy of diet

•Protein recs increase to 1.3-1.8gm/kg/day

•Protein quality may be of concern if athlete is a vegan

•May be at risk for low intakes of energy, fat, vitamin B12, riboflavin, vitamin D, calcium, iron, zinc

•Females may be at greater risk for developing iron deficiency anemia

Disordered Eating in Teen Athletes15

•Increased incidence at the onset of adulthood (18-25 years) supports prevention strategies in adolescence

•Female athletes and those with >16 hours/week of activity have an increased tendency toward disordered eating

•“Anorexia Athletica”

•“Lean-build sports”

‐cross country & track runners, swimming, gymnastics, cheerleading, yoga, wrestling, dancing

•Can result in suboptimal bone mass in adulthoodPage 31

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:19 AMPediatrics

Alcohol and Teens21

•Drinking alcohol after exercise negates training effect, hinders recovery, increases likelihood for injury, decreases immunity

•Alcohol can increase appetite and promote weight gain

•Males athletes are more likely than females to drink heavily

•Team sports in adolescence increases likelihood of alcohol intoxication

Grocery Store Tips for Athletes

•Perimeter of store = good

•Middle aisles = not as good

•Fruits & veggies = fluids & vitamins

•Round or Loin = leaner cuts

•Olive & canola oil = heart healthy

•100% whole wheat = Magnesium

•Blue/red/purple foods = helps delay muscle soreness

Page 46

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:20 AMPediatrics

To Gain Lean Body Mass

•Weight (muscle) gain is as hard to do for some as weight loss

•Needs more than just protein but also, strength training stimulus and extra calories

•Increasing calorie intake 300-500 calories per day equates to ½-1 pound of body weight per week

•Late-maturing adolescents usually most concerned about gaining muscle and size

Page 47

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:21 AMPediatrics

To Gain Lean Body Mass

•Always eat breakfast

•Eat every 3-4 hours

•Pack high calorie snacks

•Add fluids that contain calories to meals

•Increase portion sizes

To Lose Body Fat

•A combination of proper training, calorie deficit, plenty of protein, & enough, but not too many, carbohydrates

•Cutting back on about 300-500 calories equates to ½ -1 pound of body weight per week

•Body composition assessment techniques

•Lowest reference body fat for adolescents16

‐7% males, 14% females – adolescents

Page 49

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:21 AMPediatrics

To Lose Body Fat

•Don’t skip or restrict meals

•Fill up on fruits and vegetables

•Avoid foods with added fats and sugars

•Decrease carbohydrates in meals that are not before workouts

•Increase aerobic exercise as needed

SUPPLEMENTS CAN HARM AN ATHLETE AS MUCH OR MORE THAN THEY CAN HELP

Page 52

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:21 AMPediatrics

Athletes & Supplements

•An athlete is fully responsible for all prohibited substances found in his/her body

•Athletes generally don’t ask their doctors for advice on taking supplements - you need to ask them!

•Scientifically testing products is becoming more common, but the industry is still highly unregulated

Page 53

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:21 AMPediatrics

Teen Athletes and Supplements12,17

•Supplements for adolescents are generally not recommended

‐Very few studies in children and adolescents

•Nonetheless, supplements are very popular among adolescents

‐Most commonly used are sports drinks, multivitamins, vitamin C, iron, whey protein, caffeine, & creatine

•Younger elite athletes tend to be more performance focused and less health conscious than adults with regards to supplements

Whey Protein Powders

•Helps in conjunction with CHO

•Increases muscle mass more aggressively than other proteins

•Enhances immune function

•Effective for those who don’t eat enough

•Isolate vs concentrate

•No more or less effective than food!

Page 56

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:22 AMPediatrics

Creatine

•Amino acid that provides energy to muscles, usually as phosphocreatine

•Delays fatigue during explosive exercise

•May benefit those who are naturally deficient

•Dose: ‐20 gm total/day (divided) for five days, followed by 3-5 gm

per day to maintain.

•Sources: red meat, poultry, fish

•Water retention

Page 57

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:22 AMPediatrics

Creatine Guidelines for Teen Athletes18

•Only recommended when the athlete is a serious competitor and is post-puberty.

•The athlete is eating a well-balanced sports diet that optimizes performance.

•Both athlete and parents understand the effects of creatinesupplementation and approve of taking the supplement. No one can guarantee safety.

•Qualified professionals supervise the supplementation of only reputable brands of creatine supplements.

•The athlete does not take more than the recommended dose.

Page 58

xxx00.#####.ppt 9/10/2013 11:54:22 AMPediatrics

Caffeine

•Both a CNS and muscular stimulant

•Increases alertness and decreases perception of fatigue

•May increase fat utilization & decrease CHO

•Sources: Energy drinks, coffee, tea

•Optimal Dose: 3-6mg/kg taken ~1 hr prior

•Doping threshold in urine

•Symptoms of caffeinism

•Adolescents may be more sensitive to effects

Summary

•Nutrition can play an essential role in the health and performance of competitive adolescent athletes

•Adolescent athletes require more fluid, calories, carbohydrates, proteins, and many key vitamins than their non-athletic peers

•Meal time constraints, poor nutrition knowledge, and pubertal body changes are among the many barriers to optimal sports nutrition for adolescents

Summary

•Timing and composition of meals before, during, and after exercise are crucial for optimal sports performance and recovery

•Adolescent athletes at highest risk for suboptimal nutrition are those who under-fuel, are vegetarian, have disordered eating, or abuse alcohol

•Although supplements are popular and commonly used among adolescents, they are not generally recommended

•Individual assessment by a CSSD is recommended to best meet an elite athlete’s nutritional needs
