  • Analysis Among High-Level Athletes
    Journal of Human Kinetics volume 59/2017, 67-77 DOI: 10.1515/hukin-2017-0148 67 Motivation in Physical Education, Sport and Physical Activity and Health The Prevalence and Covariates of Potential Doping Behavior in Kickboxing; Analysis Among High-Level Athletes by Damir Sekulic1, Natasa Zenic1, Sime Versic2, Dora Maric3, Goran Gabrilo1, Mario Jelicic1 The official reports on doping behavior in kickboxing are alarming, but there have been no empirical studies that examined this problem directly. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence, gender differences and covariates of potential-doping-behavior, in kickboxing athletes. A total of 130 high-level kickboxing athletes (92 males, 21.37 ± 4.83 years of age, 8.39 ± 5.73 years of training experience; 38 women, 20.31 ± 2.94 years of age; 9.84 ± 4.74 years of training experience) completed questionnaires to study covariates and potential-doping behavior. The covariates were: sport factors (i.e. experience, success), doping-related factors (i.e. opinion about penalties for doping users, number of doping testing, potential-doping-behavior, etc.), sociodemographic variables, task- and ego-motivation, knowledge on sports nutrition, and knowledge on doping. Gender-based differences were established by independent t- tests, and the Mann-Whitney test. Multinomial logistic regression analyses were performed to define the relationships between covariates and a tendency toward potential-doping behavior (positive tendency – neutral – negative tendency). The potential-doping behavior was higher in those athletes who perceived kickboxing as doping contaminated sport. The more experienced kickboxers were associated with positive intention toward potential-doping behavior. Positive intention toward potential-doping behavior was lower in those who had better knowledge on sports nutrition.

Recently, several new protein supplements have been placed in the marketplace, including energy bars enriched with insect flour. Edible insects, which are rich in protein content, have been promoted as the food of the future and athletes could be a reference sample for their continued emphasis on higher protein demand. The present study investigated the potential motivations to accept an energy protein bar with cricket flour, among a group of selected Italian professional athletes. A second aim was also to measure how an information treatment about Citation: Placentino, U.; Sogari, G.; the benefits of edible insects would have impact on acceptance. Methods: 61 Italian professional Viscecchia, R.; De Devitiis, B.; athletes (27 females) completed a structured questionnaire regarding supplements and eating habits, Monacis, L. The New Challenge of food neophobia, nutrition knowledge, willingness to taste edible insects and the associated factors.

Lowery11, Robert Wildman12, Jose Antonio13 and Richard B. Kreider10* Abstract Background: Sports nutrition is a constantly evolving field with hundreds of research papers published annually. In the year 2017 alone, 2082 articles were published under the key words ‘sport nutrition’. Consequently, staying current with the relevant literature is often difficult. Methods: This paper is an ongoing update of the sports nutrition review article originally published as the lead paper to launch the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition in 2004 and updated in 2010. It presents a well- referenced overview of the current state of the science related to optimization of training and performance enhancement through exercise training and nutrition. Notably, due to the accelerated pace and size at which the literature base in this research area grows, the topics discussed will focus on muscle hypertrophy and performance enhancement. As such, this paper provides an overview of: 1.) How ergogenic aids and dietary supplements are defined in terms of governmental regulation and oversight; 2.) How dietary supplements are legally regulated in the United States; 3.) How to evaluate the scientific merit of nutritional supplements; 4.) General nutritional strategies to optimize performance and enhance recovery; and, 5.) An overview of our current understanding of nutritional approaches to augment skeletal muscle hypertrophy and the potential ergogenic value of various dietary and supplemental approaches.

  • Understanding the Factors That Effect Maximal Fat Oxidation Troy Purdom1,2* , Len Kravitz2, Karol Dokladny2,3 and Christine Mermier2
    Purdom et al. Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (2018) 15:3 DOI 10.1186/s12970-018-0207-1 REVIEW Open Access Understanding the factors that effect maximal fat oxidation Troy Purdom1,2* , Len Kravitz2, Karol Dokladny2,3 and Christine Mermier2 Abstract Lipids as a fuel source for energy supply during submaximal exercise originate from subcutaneous adipose tissue derived fatty acids (FA), intramuscular triacylglycerides (IMTG), cholesterol and dietary fat. These sources of fat contribute to fatty acid oxidation (FAox) in various ways. The regulation and utilization of FAs in a maximal capacity occur primarily at exercise intensities between 45 and 65% VO2max, is known as maximal fat oxidation (MFO), and is measured in g/min. Fatty acid oxidation occurs during submaximal exercise intensities, but is also complimentary to carbohydrate oxidation (CHOox). Due to limitations within FA transport across the cell and mitochondrial membranes, FAox is limited at higher exercise intensities. The point at which FAox reaches maximum and begins to decline is referred to as the crossover point. Exercise intensities that exceed the crossover point (~65% VO2max) utilize CHO as the predominant fuel source for energy supply. Training status, exercise intensity, exercise duration, sex differences, and nutrition have all been shown to affect cellular expression responsible for FAox rate. Each stimulus affects the process of FAox differently, resulting in specific adaptions that influence endurance exercise performance. Endurance training, specifically long duration (>2 h) facilitate adaptations that alter both the origin of FAs and FAox rate. Additionally, the influence of sex and nutrition on FAox are discussed. Finally, the role of FAox in the improvement of performance during endurance training is discussed.

  • Sports Nutrition: a Review of Selected Nutritional Supplements for Bodybuilders and Strength Athletes
    Sports Nutrition: A Review of Selected Nutritional Supplements For Bodybuilders and Strength Athletes Gregory S. Kelly, N.D. Abstract Because there is widespread belief among athletes that special nutritional practices will enhance their achievements in competition, the use of supplements has become common. Accompanying the growth in supplementation by athletes has been a corresponding increase in exaggerated claims or misleading information. This article reviews several supplements currently popular among bodybuilders and other strength athletes in order to clarify which products can be expected to produce results. Included in the discussion are creatine monohydrate, beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate, whey protein, phosphatidylserine, and selected amino acids and minerals. (Alt Med Rev 1997; 2(3):184-201) Introduction The increased focus on fitness and subsequent research in the exercise field has ex- panded the role of nutrition as it relates to sports performance. Because there is widespread belief among athletes that special nutritional practices will enhance their achievements in com- petition, the use of supplements has become common. Although some of the supplements have proven benefits, historically a great deal of the information on products is either misleading or exaggerated. This is perhaps best witnessed in the products marketed to bodybuilders and other athletes concerned with size, strength, and body composition. This article reviews some of the supplements currently promoted in this market in an effort to determine which contribute to maximizing results. Included in the review are creatine monohydrate, beta-hydroxy beta- methylbutyrate (HMB), whey protein, phosphatidylserine, and selected amino acids and minerals. Creatine Monohydrate Creatine monohydrate has become one of the most popular supplements in the history of bodybuilding.
