Slide4

Basics of Exercise Training

Divided into two main categories, dependent upon type of sportAerobic conditioningEndurance sports, e.g. long distance running, triathlon, cycling, football (soccer)Strength trainingShort burst activity and poser sports, e.g. sprinting, American football, weight liftingMost sports require a balance of the two

Remember Basic Physiology!

Endurance activity requires more aerobic fibersThis is predominantly Type 1 fibersSustain activity for hours, but slow twitch speed and small fiber sizeShort burst activity requires more anaerobic fibersThese are predominantly Type 2 fibers subdivided into:2a moderately fast – long term anaerobic (<30 min)2x fast – intermediate short term aerobic(<5 min)2b very fast – short term aerobic (<1 min)

Slide7

Basic Terminology

Measurement of exercise capacityAerobic TrainingVO2 – defined as Liters of O2/minute or mlO2/kg/minMET – one metabolic equivalent - 3.5 mlO2/kg/minWattage – Resistance on an ergometer – this is power outputHeart rate – Used to determine the level of intensity once power at a given heart rate establishedRPE – can guide exercise once power rates determinedResistance TrainingMaximum Voluntary contraction – one rep max

7

Slide8

Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing

CPET is used regularly in athletesScreen for IHSS or arrhythmia in younger athletesAllows for most efficient training program in dedicated athletesDone in sports specific testingAchieve individual specific target heart ratesCustomize exercise program for recovery or improved performance

8

Slide9

Exercise Guidelines for Athletes

Use established guidelines – but best with exercise testing to determine true levels of intensityAlways have appropriate warm up and cool downSome controversy exists on benefits, but nothing that states it is harmfulRole of CPETFor high level athletes, can help to refine exercise programs and prevent overtraining. Has a role in defining work efficiency/economyCan allow for maximal performance

9

Slide10

CPET – What Are You Looking For?

Peak capacity in resistance/intensity and VO2Anaerobic/ventilatory thresholdRespiratory compensation point above AT – for peak strength/interval trainingCan give youHR targetsWith task specific testingWattage/cadence for cyclistsSpeeds/inclines for runnersProfessionals use this all the time

10

Slide11

Aerobic Training – Injury Avoidance

Principles to avoid injuryAvoid overtrainingIncorporate multiaxial activityUtilize neumuscular and proprioceptive trainingE.g. running on reular surfaces better than on a treadmill, or road cycling better than on a stationary bikeEmphasize agilityUse well maintained equipment

11

Slide12

Aerobic Training – Injury Avoidance

Consume appropriate nutrientsDuring and in the first hour after exertion- need to have glucose and some protein, fats less criticalConsume appropriate liquidsAvoid overhydration – can use thirst as a guideHyponatremia is the highest risk – can lead to mortalityMaintain ElectroytesUse of appropriate protective equipment

12

Slide13

Aerobic Exercise Capacity

For endurance only trainingWork at or lightly above Anaerobic thresholdUse as base intensity, build up training sessions Perform dailyFor power combined with enduranceGoal is to build burst power in addition to building enduranceInterval training is a good way to achieve thisAlternate long endurance sessions with interval sessions

13

Slide14

Sample Exercise Program

Endurance athlete – 30 y/o male runnerCPET Max VO2 is 60 ml/kg/minAT is at 51 ml/kg/minHR at peak 188, HR at AT is 165Exercise program should be to maintain HR for long endurance at 165 BPM – with program to include some gently strengthening, agility, and core exercises to avoid injury. Footwear maintenance and appropriate hydration and nutrition with exercise sessions is essential

14

Slide15

Sample Exercise Program

Elite Competitive Cyclist– 27 y/o female cyclistCPET Max VO2 is 56 ml/kg/minAT is at 48 ml/kg/minHR at peak 198, HR at AT is 170Exercise program should be to maintain HR for long endurance at 170 BPM several days a week for 30-60 mile road rides Intervals alternate with endurance workouts with shorter 30minute to 60 minute sessions – hill repeats or long ride with multiple sprints for strength building HR to 190 BPM with intervals, base activity at 165 to 170 BPMInclude strengthening with weight training focused on thigh muscles, and core along with agility/balance.

15

Slide16

Strength Training Exercise

Weight lifter 35 y/o man, recreational/semi-competitiveEstablish one rep maximum trainingDO a program of low repetition and high weight training – using reps in the >85% on rep max levelInclude several bouts of lower intensity free weights for agility and endurance – helps with injury preventionUse spotting, appropriate equipment/protective gearAdvise that some aerobic exercise also is important for general fitness – at moderate intensity level 70% peak HR.

16

Slide17

Strength Training Exercise

Football player 20 y/o man, competitiveThe balance between aerobic and strength will depend on the position – must be tailored to position.Establish maximum training program for strengthInclude low repetition and high weight training – using reps in the >85% on rep max levelInclude several bouts of lower intensity free weights for agility and endurance – helps with injury prevention as well as core exercisesUse spotting, appropriate equipment/protective gearInclude aerobic exercise at moderate intensity level 70% peak HR, with sprints as appropriate.

17

Slide18

Conclusion

Gain familiarity with exercise physiology and the specific requirements of sports Remember that application of exercise training can help with both injury prevention and enhancement of exercise performance for athletes in all sports.The physiatrist has an important role to play in both athletes after an injury (teachable moment) as well as with pre-participation evaluation Work with trainers and coaches to improve safety - allowing you to be a more valuable member of the athletic support team.

Slide19

Enhancement

Not all enhancement is “illegal”

High altitude training

Interval training

Dietary modification (high protein diets,

carbo

loading)

Modalities

cooling after exercise, icing, massage, heat

Problem comes with use of pharmacologic and newer methods of artificial enhancement

Slide20

Now to the “Extralegal”

This is all over the press – and is seen in all types of sports at all levels of competition.Many high profile cases recentlyLance Armstrong (and most cyclists from the last 30 years)Olympic athletes (Marion Jones, et al.)Baseball (Mark McGuire, Sammy Sosa, et al.)American Football (Just who do they think they are kidding)Professional Soccer (Has not caught up yet – but it is there)Just not tested (but they look awfully fresh after a match)AC Milan and FC Barcelona season prep plans found in “Operation Puerto” which broke cycling wide open.Power lifting and body building (never covered up – Arnie!)

Slide21

What is Used?

Multiple drugs in multiple classesSteroidsEpoAmphetaminesCaffeineNitric OxideAnd more…….Blood dopingProteomics/gene regulationAnd, the new frontier => Gene Doping

21

Slide22

How is it regulated?

Up to individual sportsProfessional and Olympic sports are under WADAAmateur and school based are under a hodgepodge of regulationsWADA has available downloads Of particular use are: The list of banned substanceBiological Passport (ABP) guidelinesTherapeutic use exemption guidelines (TUE)Need to know the rules to help prevent patients from consequences! Go to: http://www.wada-ama.org/en/

22

Slide23

Therapeutic Use Exemption

You need to know the rules to allow necessary treatment with a banned substance or methodAll TUE need to be filed to protect the athleteSubmitted to the relevant anti-doping agencyVia paper or the ADAMS systemShould be 30 days prior to competition, or as soon as the condition is diagnosed if < 30 daysAnswers go to the athlete => then treatment can startIf they start before approval – technically in violation. Can get retroactive TUE emergencies or TUE cannot be reviewed in time.

23

Slide24

How does doping work?

Depends on the substance/sport/athleteThis is an entire world of its ownCan be harmful for athletes long termBUT benefits are very high – so risk is secondaryCan include METHODS as well as substancesBlood doping with transfusionEnhancing recovery, limiting pain Tampering with samples/testingGene Doping

24

Slide25

Some Sample Doping

Cycling is easy to discuss – covers all issuesAllegations since the first TDF (No dope, no Hope!)NTG, Strychnine, cocaine, alcohol, amphetamines, pain killersDeaths in 1960’s1960 Knud Jensen died in Olympic time trial with amphetamines and vasodilators in his system => Olympic ban1st high profile issue in TDF 1967 death of Tom Simpson (amphetamines, alcohol, dehydration)1970’s – Amphetamines and steroids foundEddy Merkx among those positive for PemolineSteroids for recovery, not strength (cortisone)First cases of trying to fool testing (methods) Pollentier and the condom.

25

Slide26

1990’s => EPO arrives

Not detectableGave marked advantages in aerobic strengthOnly could rule high Hct (Bjarn Rijs – Mr. 60%)This was era when Lance started doping1998 – Festina Scandal Van with soigneur Willy Voet stopped at Spanish border with narcotics, EPO, hGH, testosterone, amphetaminesLance allegations swirl from 1998-20062006 – 1) Operation Puerto – The method of dopingBlood bags in a fridge – most famous riders caught2) Landis tests (+) for testosterone:epitestosterone at 11:12010 => Contador stripped for clenbuterol => Transfused?2012-13 – Armstrong stripped of titles after admissions

26

Slide27

Effect of Blood Doping

Off the cuff example

Cyclist with baseline VO2 of 80 ml/kg/min\

This puts you solidly in

Peleton

– 40-100k Euro/year

Has 2 units PRBC infused

Baseline blood volume (5 liters) now with additional 500 cc blood – 10% increase

New VO2 is about 88 ml/kg/min (10% increase)

This is in the level of top cyclists – salary >100k Euro, 8k/stage, 450k for win, and

Endorsements

.

So I wonder why they cheat?

Slide28

So what is used and how?

Clenbuterol – increased lean body mass (LBM)Anabolic Steroids – increase LBM, speed recoveryGlucocorticoids – speed recovery, ease painhGH, IGF-1, PDGF, VEGF, etc – increase LBMHormone and metabolic modulators – increase performanceSERMs, myostatin inhibitors, insulins, aromatase inhibitorsEPO – Increase blood volume/hemoglobinAmphetamines – increase performanceBeta agonists – Enhance breathing/performanceBeta blockers – in selected sports – calm shakingNarcotics – ease pain, speed recoveryAlcohol – not in competition in aeronoautics, driving, archery, karate, power boating, and motorcycling = > historically to ease pain in competitionDiuretics/masking agents – evade testingBlood transfusions – autologous – as EPO

28

Slide29

What is therapeutically allowed?

Beta agonists: Salbutamol (1600 mg/24hr)Inhaled formoterol (54microgram/24hrs)Inhaled Salmeterol used as per manufacturer’s regimenAlcohol – out of competition allowedBeta blockade – only out of competition, except never for archery, shootingAdrenaline in anesthetic injectionPseudophedrine <150 micrograms/mlEphedine/methylephedrine <10 micrograms/mlCathine <5 micrograms/ml

29

Slide30

New/New Frontier

ProteomicsWorks at level of proteins to enhance effectiveness of enzyme => myostatin inhibition leads to hypertrophyCytochrome P450 enzymesVariable activity in various populations – can be altered with pharmacogenetic approaches to enhance/hinder the function of the existing gene product. Caffeine/Adrenaline are metabolized via p450 so changing the activity…….Altering the effectiveness of existing gene products can alter performance

30

Slide31

Cutting/Bleeding Edge

AICAR: 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranoside (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-δ [PPAR-δ]-5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase [AMPK] agonist) => upregulates mitochondria, less type 1 fiber fatigue, altered insulin sensitivity, angiogenesis Telmisartan (Micardis): angotensin II receptor blocker synergistic with AICARGW1516 (Endurobol): (PPAR-δ-agonist) Causes cancers in liver, bladder, stomach, skin, thyroid, tongue, testes, ovaries and uterusPositive tests in 2013 – Kaykov (Rusvelo) and Ubeto (Lamprey)

31

Slide32

New Frontier => Gene Doping

Transfer of polymers of nucleic acids/analoguesNormal or genetically modified cellsCan’t currently be testedUnclear if used Significant potential risks and benefitsIntroduced via a vector (Viral or non viral)Can enhance gene expression – EPO, Muscle proteins, mitochondrial genes, hGH, angiogenic factors, etc – your imagination is the limit. Add genetic screening to the biologic passport?

32

Slide33

Conclusion

You can legally help athletes perform at their bestNeed to protect our athlete patients form extralegalProtection:1) from using drugs and enhancers – can be dangerous and it is bad sportsmanship2) from testing false positive due to treatments we giveKnow the reporting process and be openCheck on WADA site for any questions you haveBe an advocate for clean competition => especially in amateurs!
