Key Elements
- Purpose
- Timing
- Practical Considerations
Purpose Precompetition Meal
Provide Fluid and Energy for Athlete during Performance
Timing Precompetiion Meal (Not a Good Thing)
3-4 Hours prior to an event
Athletes Who:
- In contact sports
- Feel nauseated or loose appetite
- Get diarrhea shortly before or during event
- Exercise in heat
- Participate in H.I.T. sport
Timin Precompetition Meal (a Good Thing)
Eat as Close to 30 mins before:
Athletes Who:
- Feel uncomfortably Hungry Prior to workout
- Feel shaky or we ark
- Participate in Aerobic Event Max CHO stores
Practical Consideration for Precompetition Meal
Personal Preference and Tolerance
- they like, tolerate well, used to, believe results in winning
CHO Loading
Three Date High CHO
Tapering the Week of
Rest Day before the event

Adequate kcal

~600 grams CHO / Day
or
8-10 grams / kg bodyweight

Increases muscle glycogen ~ 20-40% above normal
Post Exercise Food Consumption
High-GI foods
Energy
Measure in kcals

kcal = the Work/Energy required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of Water 1 C. (2.2 lbs water 1.8 F)
Energy Requirement of Adults (3 Factors)
1. Resting Metabolic Rate (60-75% total)

2. Thermic Effect of Food

3. Physical Activity
Diet-Induced Thermogenesis
AKA: Thermic Effect of Food

Increase of E+ above resting metabolic rate measured for several hours after a meal
- E+ used for: Digestion, Absorption, Metabolism, storage of food
Athlete Weight Gain
Two Reasons:
- Improve Physical Appearance
- Enhance Athletic Performance

- Needs Progressive Resistance Training
Kcal Needed for Weight Gain
2,500 extra kcal need for 1 lb increase in lean tissue

extra 350-700 kcal daily for 1-2 lb weekly gain in lean tissue
Estimate Kcals Men
Activity Level:

Light: 17 kcal/lb , 38 kcal/kg

Moderate: 19 kcal/lb, 41 kcal/kg

Estimate Kcalls Women
Activity Level:

Light: 16 kcal/lb, 35 kcal/kg

Moderate: 17 kcal/lb, 37 kcal/kg

Heavy: 20 kcal/lb, 44 kcal/kg
Factors of Weight Loss
Genetics

Well-Balanced diet with negative calorie balance

Lose weight/gain muscle based on training (novice = easy, veteran = harder)

Not possible to lose substantial body weight without losing Lean Body Mass

Gradual weight loss = LBM preservation

No less that 1,800 - 2000 kcal / day START, adjust from there

Diet composed of Nutrient Dense food and low Energy Density

Best for Offseaon/Preseason

MOST EFFECTIVE TOOLS is RECORD KEEPING/SELF MONITORING
Common Guidelines for Weight-loss in Women
1,000 to 1,200 kcal

(too low for athletes)
Common Guidelines for Weight-loss in Men
1,500 kcal (sedentary)

(too low for athletes)
Nutrient Density
Nutrients (Vitamins, Minerals, Protein) present per calorie of food
Energy Density
Calories / weight of volume of food
Important Goal of Weight Loss
Achieve negative calorie balance
- Less important is type of food
- Important is Portions of food
- Focus on Calories
Rapid Weight Loss
Very different from gradual weight loss

Used for competition in Weight class

Done over 3-10 days prior to competiion
- Precomp food and fluid restricted
- Followed by referring and rehydrating after weight-in

Negative:
- heat illness, muscle cramping, fatigue, dizziness, weakness, decreased concentration, death
