Comment on How to Quantify the Stress of a Workout with TSS by Bowman

Bowman — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 18:03:29 +0000

David, thanks for this info. I am very interested in using TSS specifically for my running. I feel like some weeks I work too hard and risk injury, and some weeks, I don’t push myself enough. I am interested to see if TSS can help me find the right balance. My question is around finding my Function Threshold Pace… can I determine that from a recent 5K or 10K where I know I was pushing myself to my limits, or do I need to run a 1hr “time trial”?

Thanks!

A few things i have seen in terms of computer memory is that often there are specific features such as SDRAM, DDR and many others, that must go with the specific features of the motherboard. If the computer’s motherboard is reasonably current while there are no main system issues, modernizing the storage space literally normally takes under one hour. It’s on the list of easiest computer system upgrade techniques one can visualize. Thanks for revealing your ideas.

Comment on Stupid, lame SUGAR! by Melissa

I think this article was intended to make us think, not to scare us that if you eat high amounts of sugar your going to have liver failure. It’s not just our liver that is affected by most americans addiction to sugar our entire body suffers. I appreciate the article and coach Keena. Instead of critisizing I think it is a good opportunity to research and educate ourselves more.

Comment on So, you think you have runner’s knee? by Ty

Ty — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 16:01:51 +0000

Knee pain is a common problem in endurance athletes, and it can stem from a variety of underlying problems (tendonitis, patellar tracking issues, IT band friction, …). A few cautions with this blog entry:

1. Endurance athletes should never drastically change mechanics with shoe inserts/wedges, arch supports, or any other extrinsic variable. Any changes should be done with advice and supervision of a healthcare professional. Further, any change should be incorporated into the training program gradually over an extended period of time. A shoe insert in response to injury, could provide some temporary relief, but create additional problems while continuing to train.

2. Knee counterforce straps (which I assume the author is alluding to) are not a solution. They may change the direction of tension on the tendon, but they will not solve a problem that is often related to mechanics or some other extrinsic variable (shoes, running surface, seat height, etc.). Counterforce straps can be good as an adjunct treatment, but solving the underlying problem is key.

3. Consult a healthcare professional when using an NSAID. Almost always these over the counter medicines are not used with an appropriate dose to act as an anti-inflammatory.

4. There is no reason to apply heat before going to bed. Ice will help to manage the inflammatory process, and it will assist in pain control.

The best advice in this blog entry: rest and be patient.

I committed myself to NO SUGAR this week until I started doing my usual workouts. That was when I discovered that all my workout hydration, gels and recovery products are loaded with…guess what…SUGAR!! So my question is this: What should we use for hydration and nutrition during workouts if everything contains sugar? I know from experience that water alone doesn’t cut it for me during/after long workouts. Is the sugar in these products for taste alone or do the manufacturers put it in there because it has a legitimate purpose?

I lost 20lbs this last February from cutting soda out of my diet completely… It gave me the motivation to continue and eat more healthy foods. I’ve now lost 55lbs and I’m running my first marathon on Dec 4th. I don’t know much about nutrition, but I know sugar = suck. Thanks for the article.

Thanks for writing the article Keena. Hepatology is a complex topic and the science and understanding of nutrition has changed greatly over the past decade, and will likely change much more. Although I too studied biochem, organic chem, nutrition, medicine, took care of people with sick livers and those who were post liver transplant and could point out various points of uncertain facts in your article, I understand your message and think your interest in helping people is commendable. Most refined and highly processed foods are convenient to eat, taste good, and are cheap, although nutrient deficient. Consumption of poor quality food no doubt reduces health and is related to increased prevalence of obesity. For those of us who have put in massive hours of training, we know nutrition is critical in order to function at a high level, and it only makes sense to improve our knowledge of this topic as it is one aspect of our lives we may control.

ummmmmm, dextrose is glucose. Always get a bit nervous when authors make mistakes like this.

With my background in organic chemistry, nutrition, and human physiology, I would take this post with a grain of salt… The real concern about sugar is that these mono and disaccharides are energy dense molecules. Americans have too much added sugar (and sugar is a carbohydrate) in their diets. However, the main source of this added sugar comes from the consumption of soft drinks (which are mostly sweetened by High Fructose Corn Syrup). Consuming foods with lots of added sugar or refined grains can quickly sabotage one’s energy input/output balance. One 20oz bottle of a non-diet soft drink has about 250 calories. The average person will need to walk about 2.5 miles to burn those 250 calories if they already meet their daily caloric needs.

Here’s my spiel about the liver and sugar. It is also true that the body’s cells readily absorbs glucose, but when all carbohydrates (which are mono, di, and polysaccharides) are consumed they generally will elevate blood glucose levels to cause a pancreatic response to produce insulin. The concern in this regard is because foods with simple sugars and refined grains have a High Glycemic Index. As such these ingredients will often cause a rapid increase in blood glucose levels because these substances are quickly metabolized and absorbed by the body. With increased blood glucose insulin levels rise so the liver will be stimulated to convert glucose into glycogen for short term storage. This means that even though some foods are low in sugar they can still have a high Glycemic index which can make the liver “work harder.” Anyway, the real concern with sugar is that diets high in sugar can increase one’s risk for Type II Diabetes, not liver failure.

Is it 7-9 servings of fruits and vegetable so a total of 14-18 servings or a total combined of 7-9. Not really clear what the challenge is exactly with regards to portions.

I have picked up on this conversation a bit late but had a clarifying comment. CEP ‘Sleeves’ are not recommended for more than 2-3 hours. Their ‘Socks’ however, are recommended for any and all durations. This 2-3 hours limit in sleeves may vary based on the individual’s efficiency of their venous return system. As there is no compression in the foot with a sleeve, an individual may experience swelling over long durations. A person with an ‘efficient’ venous return system may be able to wear sleeves longer without swelling in the foot. Alternatively, the socks have compression through the foot to aid venous return at rest, recovery or for longer duration activity. Overall, very interesting study!

Amazing job Keena – I sure love it. What a way to contribute to society with this kind of information. I do Ironman races (IMSG), & I checked with a couple people for training, but their prices were too high for me at this time that I still have 2 guys in college. Can I ask what your prices are?

I’ve read most of your articles.

Keena,
loved the article, as a society we really need to adopt these habits and begin to instil them in our children. Today a friend of mine was just commenting on his sons third grade class, saying that at least 70% of the students were over weight. Thank you for the article, and please keep up the good work
