Monitoring and Overtraining Flashcards

1
Q

What is overreaching?

A

An accumulation of training and/or non-training stress reulting in short term decrement in performance capacity, with or without related physiological or psychological signs and symptoms of maladaptation in which restoration of performance capacity may take from several days to several weeks

Q

What is overtraining?

A

An accumulation of training and/or non-training stress resulting in long-term decrement in performance capacity with or without related physiological and psychological signs and symptoms of maladaptation in which restoration of performance capacity may take several weeks or months

Q

What is Selye’s General Adaptation syndrome?

A

Training/stress leads to an acute reduction in performance level but subsequent rest and recovery leads to ‘supercompensation’ of performance

Q

What is functional overreaching with reference to general adaptation syndrome?

A

repeated decrease in performance across multiple training sessions due to decreased rest, followed by prolonged rest and an even greater supercompensation

Q

What is overtraining with reference to general adaptation syndrome?

A

Q

According to Meeusen et al 2013, what are the different levels of acute/chronic stress caused by training?

A
  • Acute fatigue
  • Functional overreaching
  • Nonfunctional overreaching
  • Overtraining syndrom

Q

What determines the difference between overreaching and overtraining?

A

Time, Training Stress and Recovery/Adaptation ability

17
Q

How would you diagnose an athlete with overtraining syndrome?

A
  • Sport specific decrease in performance

- WITH disturbances in mood state

18
Q

What is the relative prevalence of overtraining syndrome in individual vs team sports? give reference

A

Almost double in individual vs team sports (Matos et al 2011)

19
Q

What is the relationship between level of competition and overtraining syndrome? give reference

A

More elite, more overtraining prevalence (matos et al 2011)

20
Q

What are the potential parasympathetic alterations of overtraining syndrome and in what population are they more common?

A
  • Fatigue
  • Depression
  • Brachycardia
  • Loss of motivation
  • More common in aerobic athletes
21
Q

What are the potential sympathetic alterations of overtraining syndrome and in what population are they more common?

A
  • Insomnia
  • Irritability
  • Agitation
  • Tachycardia
  • Hypertension
  • Restlessness
  • More common in anaerobic athletes
22
Q

What are some ‘other’ alterations of overtraining syndrome?

A
  • Anorexia
  • Weight loss
  • Lack of mental concentration
  • Heavy, sore, stiff muscles
  • Anxiety
  • Awakening unrefreshed
23
Q

What would an ideal marker of overtraining be?

A
  • Non/minimally invasive
  • Sensitive to training load
  • Unaffected by other factors
  • Changes should be identified before OTS occurs
  • Able to distinguish acute vs chronic exercise
  • Easy/cheap
  • Derived at rest or submaximal exercise
24
Q

What has been historically identified as a biochemical marker of overtraining?

A
  • Decreased muscle glycogen
  • Decreased plasma and blood lactate
  • Decreased plasma glucose
  • Increased creatine kinase
  • Increase in plasma urea
  • Decreased plasma glutamine
25
Q

What has historically been identified as a hormonal marker of overtraining?

A
  • Decreased testosterone to cortisol ratio

- Cortisol, ACTH and Growth Hormone???

26
Q

How does an overtrained individual respond differently to a trained individual in ACTH secretion pre and post 2 sessions of exercise? give reference

A

Much higher post exercise increase in ACTH first exercise bout, but lower than baseline post second exercise bout (Meeusen et al 2004)

27
Q

How does an overtrained individual differ from a trained individual in growth hormone secretion pre and post 2 subsequent exercise sessions?

A
  • Trained: 7000% increase in GH after exercise

- Overtrained: almost no increase in GH post exercise

28
Q

WHat are the psychological differences in OT versus healthy individuals?

A

OT are higher in depression, anger, tension, and fatigue
