Factors Affecting Performance

Eat To Compete: Setting The Dietary Stage

A Widely Accepted Fact!

Athletes involved with high intensity training and competition “DO NOT” ingest the right types or amounts of

macronutrients to offset energy expenditure!

Sport Nutrition Guidelines: The Basics

Nutritional GuidelinesGeneral Meal Timing

• Pre‐exercise meals(4‐6 h)

• Pre‐exercise snack (30‐60 min)

– 40‐50 g CHO, 10 g PRO

• Sports drinks during exercise (> 60 min)

– 6%‐8% glucose‐electrolyte solution

– Sports gels/bars at half‐time

• Post‐exercise snack (Within 30 min)

– 1 g/kg CHO, 0.5 g/kg PRO

• Post‐exercise meal (Within 2 hours)

• Carbohydrate loading (2‐3 days prior to competition)

– Taper training by 30%‐50%

– Ingest 200‐300 extra grams of CHO

Strategic EatingIn addition to the general

dietary guidelines; researchers indicate that:

Composition of food consumed {% of macronutrients}

&The timing of meals also plays

an important roles in optimizing training adaptations

Basic “Strategic” Eating Recommendations

Ingest CHO+PRO within 30 min to 2 hours following exercise

Basic Strategies

Classification Nutrients

Breakfast CHO and PRO

Between CHO/PRO shake or snack

Lunch High CHO, moderate PRO, and low-fat

Between CHO/PRO shake or energy bar

DinnerHigh CHO, moderate PRO, and

low-fat

Before Going To Bed CHO/PRO snack

Nutrition & Supplementation: Endurance Athletes

Ergogenic Effects Scientific Based Rationale

Foundational GuidelinesEndurance Athletes

• Diet focused on goals (Maintenance, Weight Gain, Weight Loss)

• Daily multi-vitamin (With iron for women)

• Carbohydrate (55-65% of calories)

3 – 5 grams/kg/day typically sufficient

• Protein (15-20% of calories)

1.5 – 2.0 grams/kg/day general

2.0 – 2.5 grams/kg/day during heavy training and/or at altitude

• Fat (25-30% of calories)

1 – 1.5 grams/kg/day

• Greater emphasis on meal timing

Provide education about carbohydrate loading {300 more calories}

Why the macronutrient % distribution range?

STRENGTH & POWER ATHLETES

Foundational GuidelinesStrength/Power Athletes

• Diet focused on goals (Maintenance, Weight Gain, Weight Loss)

• Daily multi‐vitamin (With iron for women)

• Carbohydrate (40‐55% of calories)

3 – 5 grams/kg/day typically sufficient

• Protein (20‐30% of calories)

1.5 – 2.0 grams/kg/day general

2.0 – 2.5 grams/kg/day during heavy training and/or at altitude

• Fat (20‐30% of calories)

1 – 1.5 grams/kg/day

• Greater emphasis on meal timing

May need more education about nutritional ergogenic aids

Why the macronutrient % range?

Early Morning6:00am – 8:00am

Late night snack10:00pm – 12:00am

CHO: 50-75 gramsProtein: 10-15 grams

Does The Glycemic Index Really Matter With Meal Timing?

• Measures the rate of the rise and fall in blood glucose in response to ingesting CHO

• Rise in insulin serves to store glucose as glycogen, increase CHO oxidation, and suppress fat utilization

• Raising blood sugar levels quickly causes rapid release of insulin which can cause rebound hypoglycemia

• Glucose & Insulin response to eating = Glycemic Index (GI)

• High GI Diets

– Cause greater increase in insulin, CHO storage, and CHO utilization {Associated with obesity, diabetes, and heart disease}

• Low GI Diets

– Promotes weight loss and improves insulin resistance

• GI greater than 70 is considered high

• 56‐69 is moderate

• Less than 55 is low ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐Glycemic Load Option!

Glycemic LoadThe glycemic load (GL) of food is a number that estimates how much the food will raise a

person's blood glucose level after eating it.

Glycemic load accounts for how much carbohydrate is in the food, and how much each gram of carbohydrate in the food raises blood glucose levels.

Glycemic load is based on the glycemic index (GI). Glycemic load is defined as the grams of available carbohydrate in the food x the food's GI /100.

Glycemic Index Summary For Athletes

• Maintain an isoenergetic diet consisting of high carbohydrate (5‐8 grams/kg/day), moderate protein (1.5‐2.0 grams/kg/day) and low fat (0.5‐1.5 grams/kg/day) during training

• Consume low to moderate GI carbohydrates during pre‐exercise meals, prior to exercise, and for snacks in between meals

• Consume combination of low, moderate and high GI carbohydrates during prolonged exercise depending on tolerance (e.g., fructose and sucrose at 1:2 ratio)

• Consume moderate to high GI carbohydrates with protein during post‐workout snacks and meals

Replacing high GI foods with low GI foods during low calorie dieting phases can assist in weight loss

Hydration – Hydration!!!

WaterThe Fluid Of Life!

• Most important nutritional ergogenic aid!

• Performance can be impaired when ≥ 2% of body weight is lost through sweat.

• Fluid loss of > 4% of body weight during exercise can lead to heat illness, heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and death

• Athletes should ingest 0.5 to 2 L/h (6-8 oz. of cold water or a GES every 5 to 15-min) to maintain hydration {59-72o F; 15-22o C}

• Addition of 1 g/L of salt can help maintain hydration in hot & humid environments

• Athletes need to utilize planned or unplanned breaks to maximize hydration status

Thermoregulation & Heat Exhaustion

Typical sweat rates during exercise are 0.8‐1.4 L/hour

Signs of dehydration: thirst, fatigue, nausea, light‐headedness, and/or dark urine

-5% Moderate -7% -17%

-5% Mild -3% -9%

Fluids should be readily available!

Fluid Replacement Strategies

Drink adequate fluids 24 hours prior to workout/competition

For every lb. of water lost, an athlete should consume 3 cups of water/GES - Adding sodium (0.5-0.7 g/L of water) during events that last

> 1 hour is beneficial & highly suggested

At least 2 cups (500mL) of fluid should be consumed 1-2 hours prior to exercise

Athletes should weigh oneself before and after practice!

Consumption of CHO-electrolyte drink every 10-15 min. with 30-60 g CHO/hour is recommended

During exercise, athletes should consume fluids early and on a schedule to better monitor how much fluid is consumed
