Nutrition Topics Will Be The Focus Area For This Webinar
• In this day and age, there are not too many more advantages to be gained from various training techniques
• Larger focus being placed on how an athlete is “treating” their body for optimal performance
• The “winner” could likely be the one who is hydrated, better rested, and/or more properly fueled for the timing of their event
• So, when do you bring in a nutrition professional…

Looking For An “RD”• Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN)
is a …• Legally protected title
• RDs are credentialed by the Commission of Dietetic Registration (CDR) of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND)
• All RD’s hold at least a bachelor’s degree, have completed required hours of supervised practice, have passed the national registration exam, as well as completed continuing professional education requirements
http://www.eatright.org/HealthProfessionals/content.aspx?id=6857
American Dietetic Association Standards of Practice and Standards of Professional Performance for Registered Dietitians (Generalist, Specialty,
Advanced) in Sports Dietetics. J Am Diet Assoc. 2009;109(3):544-552.e30
Looking For A “Nutritionist”
• Sometimes you hear the term “Nutritionist” Some dietitians call themselves
nutritionists, however not all nutritionists are “RD’s” (registered dietitians)
Some states have licensure laws that protect the term however in other states virtually anyone can use the term “nutritionist”
http://www.cdrnet.org/certifications/
Specialty Board Certifications
• Board Certified Specialist in Sports Dietetics (CSSD)
Just as many other medical professions have specialty areas, RD’s are now being held to practice standards through national board certifications
An RD which completes a minimum of practice hours in the realm of sports nutrition and successfully completes the board certification exam (5 year certification) can use the credentials “CSSD”
This represents the ideal credential for a practicing sports dietitian
http://www.cdrnet.org/certifications/

Rationale For A Nutrition Consult
• Nutritional guidance to enhance the following:
Exercise / Sport training capacity
Athletic performance
Recovery from illness and/or injury
Overall health of athletes and physically active adults
Criteria To Assign Risk
• There are certain “red flags” to watch out for which determine nutrition risk
• Understanding these signs and/or symptoms will be the cornerstone for an positive referral to a registered dietitian for evidence-based nutrition intervention
Consultation With An RD…Red Flags for Referral to Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT)
• Iron deficiency anemia
• Poorly controlled diabetes
• Hypoglycemia
• Cardiovascular conditions
• Food allergies
• Vitamin/Mineral deficiencies
http://www.nutritioncaremanual.org/content.cfm?ncm_content_id=92163
• Bone mineral disturbances
• Eating Disorders
• Female Athlete Triad
• Food intolerances
• Gastrointestinal disorders
• Hydration Issues / Hyponatremia
5
One of the Largest Complaints
• When an athlete is looking for nutrition intervention, fatigue us largely one of their complaints
• Complaints could surface as:
“I am just tired all the time and fall asleep very early”
“Coach says my times are slipping” or “I don’t feel “sharp” with my skills”
“Half way through practice I am just dead”
• They may think:
Am I eating too much of the wrong things?
Am I not eating enough?

Nutrition Related Fatigue
• Fatigue is characterized by an inability to continue exercise at a desired pace or intensity
• Nutritional factors that lead to fatigue… Iron deficiency anemia
Depleting muscle glycogen stores
Hypoglycemia
Dehydration
http://www.nutritioncaremanual.org/content.cfm?ncm_content_id=92165&highlight=fatigue
Welsh RS, et al. Carbohydrates and physical/mental performance during intermittent exercise to fatigue. Med Sci Sports Exer. 2002;34:723-731.
Help Your Athletes Delay Fatigue By…
• Maintaining adequate carbohydrate availability
• Maintain adequate fluid intakes
• Adhering to appropriate aerobic exercise training
• Wearing appropriate clothing for environmental conditions
Or else they may suffer the consequences…

Complications To The Athlete With An Energy Deficit
Performance
• Loss of muscular strength
• Loss of endurance
• Decreased oxygen
utilization
• Decreased aerobic power
• Decreased speed
• Loss of coordination
• Impaired judgment
Health
• Reduced blood volume
• Decreased blood flow to kidneys
• Loss of all muscle glycogen
• Inability to regulate body temperature
• Dehydration
• Electrolyte imbalance (cardiac complications)
Loucks, AB Energy balance and body composition in sports and exercise. J Sports Sci 2004;22:1-14.
Role of Nutrition for Athletes
• Once we understand the athlete’s nutrition risk, it is the provider’s job to provide sound, evidence-based interventions & education
• “Paycheck”• Improve performance
Strength Power Endurance
• Every sport and every athlete has their own unique nutrient and energy demands
GOAL = Delay Fatigue & Improve Performance!
Nutrition Comes From 6 Essential Nutrients
All Calories Are Not Created Equal!

Overview of Energy
• Movement requires energy to fuel muscle contraction
• Varies greatly among sports
• ATP, our ultimate source of energy
• Chemical energy stored in the phosphate bond of ATP is converted to mechanical work in skeletal muscle by hydrolysis of ATP
• ATP is stored in limited quantities
• However, can be rapidly synthesized by input of energy to join inorganic phosphate with ADP
Where Does ATP Come From
• Three energy systems replenish ATP to meet energy needs for all body functions:
Phosphocreatine (PCr) provides immediate anaerobic energy
Where Does ATP Come From
• Three energy systems replenish ATP to meet energy needs for all body functions:
Anaerobic Glycolysis provides short-term energy anaerobically
8
Where Does ATP Come From
• Three energy systems replenish ATP to meet energy needs for all body functions:
Oxidative Phosphorylation provides longer term energy via aerobic glycolysis and aerobic lipolysis
Energy Use Summary
• Carbohydrates and Fatty acids are the main fuel for energy production during exercise
• Using protein for energy breakdown is NOT performance enhancing and is very inefficient
• Amino acids from protein breakdown are used as fuel sources to a limited degree when… In endurance activity when glycogen stores are
low about 90 minutes into an activity
When carbohydrate stores are limited with insufficient calorie intakes
Loucks, AB Energy balance and body composition in sports and exercise. J Sports Sci 2004;22:1-14.
Calculating Energy Needs
• How many calories will I need? Age Gender Height Weight Body Composition Exercise TimeADL
Don’t get caught “copying”!
9
Estimated Energy Requirement
• EER is a prediction to maintain energy balance in a healthy adult of a defined age, gender, weight, height, and physical activity level consistent with good health
• In order to complete this calculation you need to understand a couple conversions:
Weight in pounds to kg wt#/2.2 = kg
Height in inches = meters ht inches x .0254 = m
Age = years
Energy Formulas
EER, kcal
Boys, age 9-18y 88.5 - 6.19 x Age + [PA x (26.7 x Wt) + (903xHt)] + 25
Girls, age 9-18y 135.3 – 30.8 x Age + [PA x 10.0 x Wt) + (934 x Ht)] + 25
Men, age >19y 662 – 9.53 X Age + [PA x 15.91 x Wt) + (539.6 x Ht)]
Women, >19y 354 – 6.91 x Age + [PA x (9.361 x Wt) + (726 x Ht)]

Or, Use The Quick Version (Adults)
• Weight kg x 30 = maintenance
• Weight kg x 25 = weight loss
• Weight kg x 20 = basal metabolic requirement
Activity calories must be added to the above baseline
equations, or… • Weight kg x 45 = energy
sufficiency for most athletes

Calculating Energy Needs
Females require approx. 30 calories / kg body weight /day
for health promotion
This is generally equivalent to
1700-1800 calories per day
For a 150-pound woman
Female athletes need approx.
40 - 50 calories per kg body weight / day
This is equivalent to
2,700 to 3,400 calories a day
for a 150-pound woman
Calculating Energy Needs
Males require approx. 30 calories / kg body weight /day
for health promotion
This is generally equivalent to
2300-2400 calories per day
For a 175-pound man
Male athletes need approx.
50 - 80 calories per kg body weight / day
This is equivalent to
4,000 to 6,300 calories a day
for a 175-pound man
Activity Calories
• The final factor to determining accurate daily caloric needs is to estimate one’s calories expended during activity or sport
• This is one of the many specific areas in which a Certified Specialist in Sports Dietetics (CSSD’s) is most helpful
• Reference tables or Wearable technology
11
Periodization
Energy intakes need to be adjusted!
A “one-size fits all” approach will not work &
each training season needs to be approached
with a specific plan
• Off-season
• Heavier conditioning phases
• Two-A-Days
• Extended breaks
Jeukendrup, A.E. Sports Med (2017) 47(Suppl 1): 51. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40279-017-0694-2
So, How Do We Advise Athletes To Eat?
• Now we will start to look at our essential nutrients and determine the proper amounts to advise for fueling sport
• As you will find, “how” an athlete eats is just as important (if not more sometimes) verses “what” they eat How Much = Portions
How Often = Frequency
Carbohydrates
• Types of Carbohydrates (Food): Simple Carbohydrates Complex Carbohydrates
• Storage Forms of Carbohydrates (Body): Glycogen (muscle and liver) Blood glucose
• Energy for… Brain Muscles
• Food Sources… Breads, Grains & Legumes
Vegetables Dairy Products Fruits
12
How Much?
• 3-12 g/kg/day average For every 100# = 136 - 545g carbohydrates
o Light training 5.0 - 7.0 g/kg/day
o Moderate or Heavy Training 7.0 – 12.0 g/kg/day
o Pre-event Loading (24 – 48 hrs prior) 10.0 – 15.0 g/kg/day
Recovery Fuel ( immed & 2 hr post) 1.5g/kg
Variable depending upon sport, intensity and actual minutes of activity
http://www.nutritioncaremanual.org/content.cfm?ncm_content_id=92177
Recommended CHO Intake Prior To Exercise
1 Hour Prior = approx. 40-50g / 100#Bagel, Nature Valley Bar, Sports Drink, Fruit, Yogurt, Pretzels, Fruit newtons, PowerBarLow-fat, Low-protein, low-fiber options
2 Hours Prior = approx. 90-95g / 100#Can allow enough time for digestion of more protein options; Turkey sandwich, Clif Bar, Yogurt
3 Hours Prior = approx. 135-140g / 100#Some athletes may fit a meal of mixed content; If stomach “sensitive” then consider tapering fat, protein, and fiber content
4 Hours Prior = approx. 180 – 185g / 100#Last optimal time for a meal of mixed CHO, FATS, PROCarbohydrates should remain the focus
http://www.nutritioncaremanual.org/content.cfm?ncm_content_id=92177
Carbohydrate Loading
• Glycogen (CHO) energy storage occurs relatively slowly
Usually takes 2-6 days to achieve optimal levels
• Athletes can consume high (10-15g/kg) level of carbohydrates in their diet to super-saturate one’s glycogen energy stores for competition
• Can also beneficial to taper down activity levels
http://www.ausport.gov.au/ais/nutrition/factsheets/competition_and_training2/carbohydrate_loading
13
CHO Loading Prior To Exercise
• Supersaturation Old (7day) vs. New (24-48 hours)
• Goal = 10-15g/CHO per kg body weight
• 12 hour fasting (sleep) depletes the body’s glycogen stores
For every 100#...450 – 700g CHO the 24 hours prior to activity
Carbs Too Low?• Muscles:
Inadequate carbohydrate intake is the largest factor for the onset of fatigue
Most injuries occur late game/practice when fatigue increases
• Mind:
Concentration
Skill level and performance
Best Type of Carbohydrate For Muscle Energy
• Glucose:
Complex carbohydrates and starches
• Sucrose:
Table sugar
• Glucose and sucrose are twice as effective as fructose in restoring muscle glycogen after exercise
Fructose = liver glycogen
Glucose/Sucrose = muscle glycogen
14

(Body) FAT Burns Within A Carbohydrate Flame!!
~ Nancy Clark, RD
Benefits of Fats
• All cellular structure
• Absorption and storage of fat soluble vitamins
• Blood pressure & Blood flow regulation
• Hormone Balance
Estrogen imbalance = poor bone health & increased risk of stress fractures
Poor testosterone levels
• Blood clotting
• Inflammation
• Bronchiole air flow
15
Consequences of a Low Fat Diet to Athletes
• Low-fat = 20-30% of calories coming from dietary fat
• Consuming less than 20% of your calories from fat (less than 45g fat per day for 2000 kcal)
Develop EFA deficiency
Develop deficiency of fat
soluble vitamins
Menstrual Irregularities
How Much?
• Low-fat = 20-30% of calories coming from dietary fat.8 - 1.0g/kg or 40 - 45g every 100#
• Consuming less than 20% of your calories from fat ( < 22g / 1000 kcal)
Develop EFA deficiencyo Cell Structure, Nerve Integrity o Immune Functiono Sufficient energy for endurance
performance

Fuel Comparison
For every 100#... 1,200 kcal stored carbohydrates40,000 to 70,000 kcal stored fat
Athletes need to understand that their primary muscle fuel is carbohydrates…
Carbs are function, not (body) “fat”!
16
The Next Slide…• The following slide will show…
With increased intensity of exercise, as shown by the increasing VO2max, one’s body will exponentially burn more carbohydrate sources
This increased intensity of exercise will thus require a significant increase to exogenous CHO to fuel the exercise being performed
If one does not fuel high intensity exercise, the subsequent reaction may be a slowed physiological response to the exercise demands (or decreased metabolic rate)

Protein
• Primary Function Structure Not an efficient energy
source
• 9 Essential Amino Acids Complete proteins Animal vs. plant
proteins
• Food Sources: Dairy Meat, Poultry Fish Eggs Beans Grains Nuts/Seeds
17
Muscle Building
• Adequate protein intake with inadequate caloric intake prohibitspositive protein balance
• When building…You need enough energy to make the substrates build structure!
Carbohydrates = energy
Protein = structure
Usually takes at least adding 500 – 1000 calories/day to create increases
Betts, James A. et. Al. Endocrine Responses During Overnight Recovery From Exercise: Impact of Nutrition and Relationship With Muscle Protein Synthesis. IJSNEM
2011;21(5): 398-409.
Protein Requirements Per 100# Body Weight
• Sedentary
• Athletes
• 0.8 g/kg 36 g day
• 1.2 – 2.0 g/kg 55 - 90 g day
• Endurance athletes vs. Strength athletes no longer a focus Variations to exogenous protein intakes is more related to… Exercise intensity Injury or healing Type of exercise
Too Much??• Many athletes consume protein far in excess
of requirements
• Extra calories = Extra energy storage = Body fat
• Trained athletes only require 1.12 times more protein than sedentary counterparts
Need for increased protein is greatest during the first phases of training (3-6 months) when muscle hypertrophy gains are the greatest
• Greater than 2.5g/kg shown to increase risks for dehydration, calcium losses, and weight gain
Equals decreased performance
http://www.nutritioncaremanual.org/content.cfm?ncm_content_id=92178
18
Energy Use Summary
• Carbohydrates and Fatty acids are the main fuel during sport
• Amino acids from protein breakdown are used as fuel sources to a limited degree… In endurance activity when glycogen stores
are low about 90 minutes into an activity When carbohydrate stores are limited with
insufficient calorie intakes
Underfueling for your athletes will cause their body to break itself down in order to fuel their
performance!
Last But Not Least….Water
• Water is one of our six essential nutrients
• Water is just as important as the energy nutrients of carbohydrates, fats, and protein that we achieve in our diet through a variety of foods
• Essential to every body process and cell structure, achieving adequate hydration is going to be vital to the overall success of every athletes
Fluid Replacement Guidelines
• Adequate fluid intake = optimal performance
• We know that even a 1-2% loss of body weight can decrease performance by 2-5%
• Adolescents require greater diligence with hydration practices because: Surface area to mass ratio is much greater in children
than adults thus they absorb heat more easily
Children lack adequately functioning sweat glands until well into puberty
Children/adolescents experience greater heat accumulation and heat stress
• Sports drinks can be beneficial if one’s activity is greater than 60-90 minutes• New low-calorie sports drinks to consider
Jequier E, Constant F. Water as an essential nutrient: the physiological basis of hydration. Euro J Clin Nutr 2010;64:115-123.
Casa, D. et al. Fluid Replacement for Athletes. Jour Ath Tr 2000;35(2):212-224.
19
Fluid Replacement Guidelines
• Depletion of body water beyond 2% of body weight can cause significant impairment to performance
2# body weight = 1L sweat loss
• Sweat loses of 1.5L/hr common in endurance with 2.5L possible in hot/humid conditions with accelerated sweat rates
• Urine should be pale but not clear• Drinking to thirst has been shown to be
adequate • Sports drinks beneficial if activity
> 60-90 minutes• Do not gain weight during activity
Casa, D. et al. Fluid Replacement for Athletes. Jour Ath Tr 2000;35(2):212-224.
Electrolyte Losses
• Concentrations in mmol/L of the major electrolytes present in sweat
Sodium 40-80 mmol/L
Potassium 4-8 mmol/L
Calcium 3-4 mmol/L
Magnesium 1-4 mmol/L
Chloride 30-70 mmol/L
Most sports drinks contain 10-30 mmol/L sodium
Hydration Guidelines
• Before exercise: 16 - 24oz water 2-3 hours before exercise 8oz water 10-20 minutes before exercise
• During Exercise: 6 – 8oz every 20 minutes Can be very individualized
• After exercise: Drink 16-24 oz for every # lost
during exercise
Have athletes “practice” pre & post weights in different environments, training conditions,& temperatures to be able to rehydrate properly
Athletes need to include sodium and potassium.Athletes without medical risk can liberally use table salt.
Casa, D. et al. Fluid Replacement for Athletes. Jour Ath Tr 2000;35(2):212-224.
20
Hydration Do’s and Don’ts• DO start exercise well-hydrated
o weigh yourself before/after
o drink during exercise
o ingest sodium freely*
o follow your own plan
o drink plenty during meals
• DON’T rely solely on water
o over drink
o gain weight during exercise
o restrict salt in your diet
o use dehydration to lose weight
o delay drinking during exercise
Koslo, Jennifer et al. Water, Hydration, and Health: What Dietetics Practitioners Need To Know. SCAN’s Pulse 2012; 31(1):5-8.
Is It Possible To Drink Too Much Water?
Hyponatremia
• Electrolyte imbalance when water is consumed without electrolyte balance = water-intoxicated
• More common when athlete drinks too much and gains weight during activity
• When water intake exceeds water loses and causes an abnormally low plasma Na+ concentration
• S/S = diarrheaexhaustionmental confusionsyncopeconvulsions

Hyponatremia
21
Working Performance Nutrition Around Their
SportWhen Athletes Eat Is Just As Important As What They Eat…
Nutrition Before Exercise• Used to increase fuel stores, consider CHO loading
• Provide adequate hydration
• Prevent both hunger and GI distress during activity
• Consumption of 1.0-4.0g/kg of CHO 1-4 hours before exercise has potential to improve endurance performance as much as 14%
• Focus on complex CHO (high fiber, low sugar, increased protein) and shift towards higher sugar more refined carbohydrates when closer to exercise
• High fiber, higher protein CHO foods (starchy vegetables, whole grains) may prolong endurance by maintaining higher blood glucose levels longer than simple sugars
• 8oz every hour within 2-3 hours before exercise
• 6 – 8oz during the 15 min before exercise
Nutrition During Exercise
• CHO ingestion between 30 and 60g/hour has positive effects Prolonged, moderate-intensity exercise (more
than 2 hours) as well as stop & go exercise of shorter duration
High glycemic carbohydrateso Sports Drink, Pretzels, Fruit newtons, PowerBar
Eating foods containing higher levels of protein or fat during activity = cramping and/or GI distress
• Both fluid and CHO are shown to have a cumulative effect on performance About 14g CHO in every 8oz sports drink Recommend 8oz every 20 min during
exercise
22
Nutrition After Exercise
• Consume a mixed meal of CHO, PRO, and FATS within 30-minutes after strenuous exercise
• CHO intake of 1.5 g/kg immediately after as well as additional 1.5g/kg 2 hours later
Recovery Fuel; About 60-70g CHO for every 100#
• Use moderate to high index CHO and include small amounts of PRO (approx. 1g protein : 4g carbs)
Chocolate Milk
• Fats consumed after recovery are important to replace lipid stores after high volume endurance training
• Consume 16-24 fl oz./# lost during sport
• Need to include adequate electrolytes
Salting foods/plate is recommended for athletes

1c vanilla frozen yogurt, topped with 1c fresh berries
Taking Responsibility
• Athletes are responsible for follow-through with their coach…the nutrition care team should not be an exception!!
• Everyone is different – all nutrition plans will be different & cookie cutter approaches or comparative nutrition goals should be avoided.
• Balanced nutrition for athletes will often involve schedules and diligence rather than “feeling”
• Athletes should be responsible for their individual fueling plan
Nutrition On The Go
Meal Substitutes
Trying new foods
Packing appropriate snacks
Water bottle / fluids
In Summary
• Eat approx. 40-50 / 50-80 calories per kg per day with at least 5-10g of carbohydrates per kg per day for + energy balance
• Eat 1.2 – 2.0g of protein per kg per day with lean protein foods spaced fairly evenly at every meal
• Eat some good fats with every meal
• Pre-fuel with carbohydrates 1-2 hours before activity and consume recovery fuel of carbohydrates and protein within 30-60 minutes after sport
• Be diligent with your eating schedule! It’s not always based on “hunger”.
• Eat plenty of vegetables, but their calories will not be a significant contribution to your overall intakes. They provide a wealth of micronutrients but are too low in calories to make a difference in performance.
