Field-Based Team Sports Flashcards
Team Sport athlete specific
-mixture of high and low intense activity over specific duration
-changes in pace/direction
-certain skills
-physical contests
-ball/puck
Carbs and Performance
-carbs=muscle fuel
-maintain high rates of carb oxidation
-reduce ratings of perceived exertion
-delay onset of fatigue
-pervent hypoglycemia
Carbs and team sports
-PCR and glycogen contribute on equal amounts to ATP turnover
-muscle glycogen is used during team sport activities
-carb intake improved second half motor skills, and decreased second half fatigue
Daily carb intake for team sports
-3-5 or 5-7g/kg
Carbs before activity
1-4 hrs before (1-4g/kg)- high glycemic carb rich food, minimal fiber, fat and protein
<1 hr before (25-30g)- same rules as above can come in form of gels/drinks
Carbs during
-choose fast carbs (30-60g/hr)(glucose, maltose, sucrose)
-easily digested rapidly absorbed
-fructose is appropriate in small amounts when combined with fast carbs
-Form does not infuence oxidation rate
Carbs after activity
-1.0-1.2 g/kg
-higher glycemic vs lower glycemic carb foods
-adding protein results in a similar rate of glycogen resynthesis
Hydration and Performance
Water is 60% of body weight
roles in numerous physiological processes
-evaporation of sweat cools the body
-performance suffers with losses less than 2%
Consequences of Dehydration
-dehydration impairs the ability to remove heat
-cardiovascular strain
-altered metabolic and CNS function
-increased glycogen use
-decreased fluid absorption
-risk of heat illness
Dehydration and Performance
-For 2.5%:
-RPE was higher, sprint time was slower, footnall skill performance decreased by 5%
Current Behaviors
-athletes do not necessarily replenish the fluids needed during exercise
Assessment techniques
-thirst, urine color, body weight changes, USG
Water amount
drink 16-10 fl/oz for every pound lost after activity, and include sodium in with fluids to help improve palatability, stimulate drinking and retain fluids
Protein
-45% of the body
-important component of recovery and repair
-important component of injury rehabilitation
-team sport athletes have increase muscle damage/CK levels
Protein amount Daily
-0.8g/kg/day
-team sports=1.2-1.7g/kg/day
-power= 1.5-1.7 g/kg/day
-endurance=1.2-2.1 g/kg/day
RECOVERY= 0.25-0.30 g/kg
