Who are Athletic Patients?
11/5/2015 Genetic Make-up: Body Type- Body Density Proper Diet Nutrition Supplementation Exercise Sleep Recipe for Success: With your Athletic Patients & Athletic Performance By: Angela Anoliefoh-Ford, M.Sc, Ph.D (candidate) Medical Support Manager Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 Who are Athletic Patients? Define Athletic Patients Athletes: (A- Elite Athletes) • Marathon & Distance Runners • Power lifters • Cyclists • Sprinters • Soccer Players • Skiers/ Snowboarders • Football players • Basketball Players • Hockey Players • Body Builders/ Fitness Athletes: (B- Everyday Athletes) • 10K runners/Joggers • Hikers • Firefighters • Police Officers • Weekend warriors • Gym Goers • Weight-loss Patients 1 11/5/2015 Performance : Contributions and Connections Physiological Genetics Nutrition Accurate Training Health Injuries Overtraining & Fatigue Water Consumption Supplements PERFORMANCE Mind and Body Connection Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 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. ~ Willie Mays Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 2 11/5/2015 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 Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 Psychological- Brain Health Key components of psychological mindset is Brain Health. There are many factors that play into brain health. Exercise Physical Healthy Healthy Anxiety Sleep Great Diet Meditation New Learning + Social Connection Gratitude Brain Health ANT Killing (Automatic Negative Thoughts) Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 3 11/5/2015 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. Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 4 11/5/2015 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 Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 5 11/5/2015 Body Composition and Fat Analyzer Measurements using a body composition and fat analyzer The Omron HBF-510W Full Body Composition Monitor features full body sensing with hand-to-foot technology more accurate than foot-to-foot monitors. Full body sensing provides a comprehensive understanding of body composition Omoron cost range ($95-$200) The Body Composition Monitor and Scale measures 5 fitness indicators to get the most accurate results including: Body Fat Percentage, Body Mass Index (BMI), Skeletal Muscle, Visceral Fat, and Body Weight Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 Body Composition and Fat Analyzer Measurements using a body composition and fat analyzer Tanita BC-418 Segmental Body Composition Analyzer BIA (bio-electrical impedance analysis Tanita's professional Body Composition Analyzers provide weight and a complete body composition analysis in less than 30 seconds. longevity (up to 300, 000 uses before calibration.) Cost more than the Omoron. Tanita cost range ($2000-$4100) Through the use of 8 polar electrodes, the Tanita BC-418 Segmental Body Composition Analyzer can show separate body mass readings for the right arm, left arm, trunk, right leg and left leg. It also prints out a complete body composition profile in seconds including: Weight, Body Fat Percentage, Body Fat Mass, Body Mass Index (BMI), Fat Free Mass, Estimated Muscle Mass, Total Body Water and Basal Metabolic Rate Adult & Athlete Mode Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 6 11/5/2015 Know their: Somatoype: Body Types & Density Ectomorph, Mesomorph, Endomorph Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 Know their Somatotypes: Body Types & Density Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 7 11/5/2015 Body Types Variance 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.

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.

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 Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 Choosing the right supplements Choosing the Right Supplements- Reba Test The large variety of pills, powders, drinks and bars, which claim to increase muscle and strength, or burn fat, can often lead to confusion amongst athletes. - - The right supplement is as important as clean eating Filtering on the Vital/ Physical Energy Levels Administer the ones that test well and stagger depending on where they are in their season or program Also, depending on symptoms being exhibited Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 14 11/5/2015 Setting them up to Win: Supplements for Body Type Choosing the Right Supplements for Body Types Ectomorph Body Type (Aspergillus Constitution +Thyroid Body Type) - Pleo Nigersan - Lycopus if they have hyperthyroid - Female Tonic (in cases of Amenorrhea and Dysmenorrhea) Mesomorph Body Type (Pencillium mix with Mucor constitution + Pituary, Thyroid & Gonadal Body Type) - Pleo Mucedo - Biothy on a rotation - ASF-Adrenal Support Formula or Adrenum Endomorph Body Type (Mucor constitution – Adrenal + Thyroid+ Gonadal Body Type) - Give them Biothy - Pleo Mucedo - Female Tonic ( hormone balancing and cases of Dysmenorrhea) - Thymus Eg or Pleo Thymokehl - ASF-Adrenal Support Formula or Adrenum - Cytozyme AD & ADB5 Plus (Biotics Research) Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 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 Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 15 11/5/2015 Anabolic Steroids Testosterone Oral Steroids Street Names Typical Uses Clenbuterol Often called “Clen” Bronchialdilator, fat-loss thermogenic, has anabolic effects but not an anabolic steroid Oxandrolone Anavar Often called “Var” Fat burning steroid, better option for womenbulking/cutting, fewer side effects Human Growth Hormone HGH Faster recovery, increase metabolism, anti-aging Oxymetholone Anadrol Often called “Drol” most potent Extremely potent, for size & strength gain Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 Anabolic Steroids Testosterone Oral Steroids Street Names Typical Uses Stanozolol Winstrol often called “ Winny” Harder ripped look to the muscle, leaner and more vascular muscular look Methandrostenolone Dianabol often called “Dbol” Muscle growth, rapid and fast acting buildup of strength & mass Fluoxymesterone Halotestin often called “Halo” Raw strength + cutting cycle, increases strength & aggression- can be harsh on the body, thus less used Nandrolone-Decanoate Deca-Durabolinoften called “Deca” Cutting and bulking cycles, for pure muscle building and solid harder muscles Oxymetholone Anadrol Often called “Drol” most potent Extremely potent, for size & strength gain Methonolone Primobolan Depot- often called “Primo” Considered best muscle harder- for cutting, used a lot by female athlete, fast results in short a period Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 16 11/5/2015 Testosterone and Steroids Injectable Steroids Street Names Typical Uses Trenbolone No common trade nameoften called “Tren” Coined greatest steroid, muscle mass, cutting phase, hardness, definition, vascularity, rapid fat burning Testosterone Numerous brands- often called “Test” Lean muscle mass, recovery, endurance, libido, low testosterone Stanozolol Winstrol Depot- often called “ Winny” Strength & endurance w/o unwanted mass, enhances other steroids Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 Anabolic Steroids: Advise & Education vs. Judgement Advise & Education vs Judgement: Steroid causes hormonal imbalance as well as: • Long term use damages joints can damage • Connective tissues damage • Fluid retention • Liver and kidney damage • Hardening of other muscles such as the heart, blood vessels, arterial walls How to Support their Organs- (Talk about this later) - Support their gut from damage done by and from steroids DETOX THE BODY!

Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 Start of a program: Organ Testing & Filtering Start of Program check personal energy reading levels Check the Acidum Lacticum for the Cellular Milieu and fixing the Mesenchyme (Thanks to Dr. Loretta Kershaw, MD, DHM), I’ve had great success with this. • • Reba Device Diagnostic Testing Tool Personal Readings – Vital, Emotional, Mental, Causal Specific Readings (Tissue acidosis -lactic acid)- Milieu Modulating – Acidum Lacticum vials: D2, D6, D15, D30, D60, LM6 • Remedies: Pleo Alkala, Pleo Citro, *Pleo Sanuvis*, Pleo Form Detox Testing and Organ Testing : Zoological Test Kit - Liver, Adrenal, Kidney, Lymphatic Knot, Gallbladder – Supplement Testing: A variety Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 18 11/5/2015 Setting them up to Win: Detox 1st Detox First: At the start of any competition, season, weight loss program etc. Get the body ready: - This is necessary because the liver gets overload and or is often overloaded to begin with and or damaged, making it unable to do it’s job of detoxification properly or efficiently. - Thus it’s important to support that so that it can do it’s job properly and efficiently Nestmann Detox Kit (Biomed) A-Hepatica, Solidago, Lymph-a-drop (Liver, Kidney, Lymphatic) 17-20 drops each 3 times daily Gut Cleanse Pack: Taraxa, Probiotic 7-in-1, 3C (Liver detox, micro flora, complete colon cleanse) Cellulor Detox (AOR): Angela Anoliefoh- Ford, M.Sc – Angela Ford Fitness© Nov 2015 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 19 11/5/2015 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) Setting them up to Win: Alkalizing Measuring the pH Start every program with a picture of the body’s milieu and the cellular matrix milieu. 1. 2. Urine Test 1. Test pH for 2-3 week days and 1 weekend day 2. Use 2nd morning urine (1st morning is always more acid. Can be a false reading 3. ph range 7-7.3 (use test strips) Testing with the Acidum Lacticum Vials (in Advance Test Kit of the Reba) 1. Gives a picture of the cellular matrix and milieu 2.

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.
