Psychological Mindset
Why they train and compete, lose weight,
build better bodies and potentially destroy
that body.
The main psychological factors that can
influence sports performance:
Stress
Anxiety
Self-Confidence
Why it’s hard:
They always want to be the best
There’s added pressure to be the best
from coaches, teammates, family &
friends, the media and themselves
What you are thinking, what
shape your mind is in, is what
makes the biggest difference of
all.

Mind & Body Connection
Balancing the “Psyche” and
“Soma”
Relationship between the mental
and physical domains, and how to
maximize our overall performance.
To be a better athlete does not
necessarily mean that you must
train harder or longer.
It could mean that you need to address all the components that
make up a successful athletic performance - mental as well as
physical.
Since athletes do not enter into competition with a completely
empty head, they must include mental skills in their training
and conditioning programs as well.
Long Term Success = psychological skills + brain health

Physiology: Start of Program and Visits
BMI vs BD (Body Density)
Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015
Start of Program and Visits: BMI vs BD
What is BMI:
BMI is the common acronym given to Body Mass Index, a
number calculated from your weight and height that roughly
correlates to the percentage of your total weight that comes from
fat, as opposed to muscle, bone or organ.
What is BD- Body Density:
Body density is the proportion of body fat present in a human
body, as compared to its overall mass. Also known as body fat
composition, it is used as a tool for gauging how much fatty
tissue, both essential and excess, exists in a body
it is used as a tool for gauging how much fatty tissue, both
essential and excess, exists in a body.
Knowledge of body density is a critical piece of data in a
nutrition and fitness plan.

BMI and BD Measurement Equipment and Tools
Other, more scientific methods for estimating body density include:
Skin fold measurements- Callipers ($14- $470)
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)- ($100- $8,000)
Near-Infrared Interactance- NIR Futrex 5000- ($2000-$5000
Bod Pod (Air Displacement) ($30,000- $40, 000)
Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) ($400- $5,000)
Hydrostatic Weighing aka Underwater Weighing ($75/ session- only
available at research institutions, university or colleges)
Advantages:
Skinfold, Near-Infrared Interactance, and BIA techniques are less
costly than the newer DEXA Method and Bod Pod.
Disadvantage:
can be less accurate and have more limitations than DEXA method.
Technical source of errors
Disadvantage of DEXA Method and Body Pod
DEXA requires a lot of equipment and extensive knowledge to
administer test, submerging can cause anxiety for some

Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015
Why BD: 7 to 9 Sites- Skin Fold Caliper Measurements
How to take the right measurement:
7 Main Sites for
Testing
1. Tricep
2. Pectoral (Chest)
3. Midaxilla
4. Subscapula
5. Abdomen
Equation for Body Density (BD)
BD = 1.097 - (0.00046971 x sum of skinfolds)
+ (0.00000056 x square of the sum of
skinfold sites) - (0.00012828 x age), where
the skinfold sites (measured in mm)
6. Suprailliac
Some trainers use only 3 maybe 5, which gives
you an incomplete picture, 7-9 sites is more of
the gold standard
8. Biceps
7. Quadriceps
Extra Sites to Test
9. Calf

Parasympathetic: acetylcholine vials
Administer Paravita
Use: Pleo Citro and Pleo Sanuvis
Use: Anxvita/ Simvita, Salvtonic
Note: Dysregulation of ANS can also be linked to timing of training, sleep cycle and
melatonin.
According to a study done by (Yamanaka et al, 2015), morning exercises eventually
enhanced the parasympathetic activity, while evening exercise activated the
sympathetic activity, as indicated by increase in heart rate in the nocturnal sleep
patterns. These findings indicated differential effects of morning and evening
exercise on the circadian melatonin rhythm, PSG- Polysomnogram, and HRVHeart Rate Variability. The sleep PSG did not change after morning exercise, stage
1+2 sleep significantly decreased by 13.0% without exercise, and RE sleep decreased
by 10.5% after evening exercise.

Lactic Acid Threshold:
The lactate threshold refers to the intensity of exercise at which there is an
abrupt increase in blood lactate levels (Roberts & Robergs 1997)
- Improve with high volume training
O2 Levels:
we breathe in about 2% (O2)
with increases physical activity, an increase in O2 intake also ensures an
increase in strength, energy and endurance
most of the time our bodies are not benefiting from optimum O2 intake
intense or prolonged physical activity depletes the body of O2. The more
strenuous the activity, the more O2 used up than what is taken in
•
VO2 max:
the maximal volume of oxygen that the body can deliver to the working
muscles per minute.
Significant improvements in maximal oxygen uptake and/or aerobic
endurance performance following phosphate salt supplementation
(William, Ph.D, J Int Soc Sports Nutr. 2005)
•
O2 + Stress + Detox:
stress, even minor stressful event impact O2 levels
lack of physical activity impact O2 levels
Increased O2 helps reduce build-up of toxins, detoxify, inflammatory
agents and lactic acid produced by the muscles, by flushing them out of
the body

Anabolic Steroids: What are they?
What are they?
They're man-made versions of testosterone, a male sex hormone
that helps build bigger muscles. Can be taken oral or injected
directly into the muscle
Do your patients use them? Why?
- Increase muscle
- Enhance performance/ competitive edge (i.e. strength and
endurance without the mass)
- Leaner more vascular look
- Weight-loss
- Some cases for anti-aging

Setting them up to Win: The Role of Water
Never Underestimate the Importance of Water
Most athletes focus on nutrition
such as:
- protein, carbs, minerals
- using sports drink
supplements along side
bars, gels and mini shots.
However, correct water intake is
vital for athletes
- too much or too little will
result in performance and
health problems
- water is our one vital nutrient
for life
Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015

Setting them up to Win: The Role of Water
The Roles of Water:
- Cellular communication uses water
and water is the primary vehicle for the
transmission of chemicals, hormones
and nutrients throughout the body.
-
Water is the medium responsible for sending and amplifying
energetic wave patterns. (McTaggart 2002, Oschmann 2003)
In every cell there is one molecule of protein to every 10 thousand
molecule of water and it is water that hold the double helix together
Water copies, memorizes, and carries energetic signals and messages.
(Dr. Ava Lloyd, 2010)
-
- Glycogen is stored in the muscle and liver together with water
- 1 gram of glycogen is stored with 3 gram of water
- This means when glycogen is used, water weight is lost in the
process.
Note: athletes and athletic patients need to be consuming
at least 2-3 litres of water minimum. Patients with higher
muscle density or higher energy expenditure need to
consume btw 3-5 litres
daily (i.e cyclists, bodybuilders,
Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015
wrestlers etc)

bodybuilders- due to damaged microflora and inflammation
from steroid use):
- This form of probiotic helps to normalize pH, (multiplies rapidly
and becomes metabolically active in the intestines producing
lactic acid (right spinning- which neutralizes lactic acid build-up)
-
Basentabs (Pascoe Product): great and gentle for alkalizing

Setting them up to Win: Thermogenics & Fatburners
Thermogenics and Fat burners: Why athletes Use them.
The main fundamental premises of fat-burners is to provide a
huge boost in metabolism and suppress appetite, enhance weight
loss and increase energy. In the fitness industry any fat burner
that lacks these major functions should be neglected and not
considered as a fat burner.

Setting them up to Win: Thermogenics Mechanism
L- carnitine tartrate & Acetyl –L-carnitine (older patients): amino acid (a
building block for proteins) , energy metabolism and mitochondrial protection and
ability to burn fat
Ginseng Panax: for improving thinking, concentration, memory and work
efficiency, physical stamina, and athletic endurance.
Green Tea Extract: Antioxidants and thermogenic,
Green Coffee Bean Extract: chlorogenic acid in green coffee is thought to affect
how the body handles blood sugar and metabolism.
Creatine (monohydrate, tartrate, HCL, pyruvate): commonly used for
improving exercise performance and increasing muscle mass in athletes and older
adults. improving the athletic performance of young, healthy people during brief
high-intensity activity such as sprinting.
- Mono
- Tartrate
- HCL
- Pyruvate
Note: Do not take creatine if diagnosed with kidney disease or diabetes. This may
worsen it
Nitric Oxide: can cause an increase in blood flow and oxygen to the skeletal
muscles, which then increases strength and endurance. The general theory behind
NO is that the increased blood flow helps to transport blood and nutrients better to
the working muscles.

Sleep and Recovery
- Less than 7 hours of sleep, lowers total blood flow to the brain- Dr.
Daniel Amen, MD- 2015 (7-8hrs is optimal)
- Metabolic and immunological consequences of sleep deprivation
point to high potential of antioxidant imbalance (Everson et al,
2004)
- Recovery sleep normalized antioxidants content in the liver and
enhanced enzymatic antioxidant activities in both the liver and the
heart. (Everson et al, 2004)
- It is important that those who exercise regularly or occasionally
ingest foods rich in antioxidants.

Major Minerals
Calcium, Phosphorus, Sodium,
Potassium, Chloride,
Magnesium, Sulfur
Trace Minerals
Iron, Zinc, Copper,
Manganase, Flouride,
Chromium, Molybdenum,

Minerals
Minerals are very important in athletic training and performance
- As micronutrients are often equated with energy, strength
and optimal performance,
- the prevalence and effect of vitamins and mineral
deficiencies in athletes.
- Completely without them neither our metabolism nor our
immune system would work.
- They are little “wonders of Nature” that control growth and

Nutrient Timing: When, What & How much to Eat
Very important to be aware of how the timing of your meals i.e. before, during, and,
after an event effects exercise and performance.
What you eat pre-exercise have a defining effect on performance and therefore it is
extremely important to know how to properly fuel your body for exercise.
How to time nutrient intake during exercise and how to push through when you hit
‘the wall’ is also very important. As eating out has a huge impact on your
recovery after you work out
Before: Starting up
How to manipulate carbohydrate intake before (carb loading), during, and, after
exercise, and how it can improve performance by optimizing energy stores in the
body is important.
Optimizing Energy Stores in the Body for performance
• Carb Loading: Before 80-100 grams
• During: carb drink 25-48 grams
• After Exercise: 20-35 grams
Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015
Training and Competition: Protein & Fats
Protein and Fats for Exercise
Before physical activity: 20-25g of protein powder, reinforce your muscle
strength, prolong endurance and limit breakdown of muscle.
Protein During: Amino acids is what athletes really need to be taking
during performance
Amino Sport and Amino Acid Quick Absorb (Biotics Research) 3-4 squirts
in 250 ml water
*if taken within 10 minutes of training, will reduce the amount of stress hormones
(mainly cortisol) released!
– up to 30 grams to be consumed with 30-60 minutes post
workout and training (i.e 100 grams chicken breast has 20-30
grams of protein
After: Refueling- post workout: Protein powder- quickly absorbed, helps
the body recover quicker, replenish the body’s energy, muscular
strength and just leave you feeling nourished.
Fats During: Fatty acids are important to help with mobilization and
oxidation during exercise.
Fats After: 1-2 Tbsp post workout

Fitness and Bodybuilding Carb Loading
Week of the show: varies depend on class (i.e. Bikini, Fitness,
Figure, Physique, Bodybuilding)
Show Day: again depends on class
Aerobic and Endurance/ Distance Events (90 minutes or more) & Cycling
Carb Loading: 2-3 Days before a race: 700-850 grams per day + some protein.
Day of eat a few hours before some low fat protein, carbs, veggies - this vary
based on body weight and calorie expenditure
Court & Skill Sports: Carb Loading: Night before ⅓ each protein, carbs
(complex) and veggies
Morning of match: 4 hours before: a bit of protein, complex carb, a bit of veggie/
fruit
During: Electrolyte fluid, banana, protein bar
Post: Replace electrolyte and lite meal with protein, veggies & carbs
