Gatorade introduces specialiazed sports drink for athletes’ longer, more intense workouts After years of extensive research, scientists at the Gatorade Sports Science Institute have developed Gatorade Endurance Formula – a specialized sports drink with a unique blend of electrolytes designed to meet the needs of athletes during their longer, more intense occasions when fluid and electrolyte losses can be very significant.

Gatorade Endurance Formula or Gatorade Thirst Quencher for your athletes?

Both Gatorade Thirst Quencher and Gatorade Endurance Formula are scientifically formulated to meet the needs of athletes and are great hydration solutions when athletes are sweating. For most active people and athletes, Gatorade Thirst Quencher is the appropriate beverage to help replace the fluid and electrolytes lost through sweat and provide energy to fuel working muscles.

Gatorade Endurance Formula Gatorade Endurance Formula is a specialized sports drink with a five electrolyte blend including nearly twice the sodium (200 mg) and three times the potassium (90 mg) of Gatorade Thirst Quencher. This specialized formula helps to more fully replace the fluids and electrolytes lost in sweat during longer, more intense workouts and competitions such as: ●

● ●

●

Training for or competing in a marathon or triathlon Two-a-day football practices An all-day soccer or track and field tournament Any other occasion when athletes can experience large sweat losses due to intense or prolonged activity

Athletes have different needs during different athletic situations. In longer more, intense occasions, fluid and electrolyte losses can become significant and that calls for a unique hydration solution such as Gatorade Endurance Formula.

"Athletes have different needs during different athletic situations," says Bob Murray, Ph.D., director of the Gatorade Sports Science Institute. "In longer, more intense occasions, fluid and electrolyte losses can be enormous and that calls for a unique hydration solution such as Gatorade Endurance Formula."

Gatorade Endurance Formula contains the same scientifically balanced 6% carbohydrate blend found in Gatorade Thirst Quencher that helps speed fluid replacement in the body and fuel working muscles.

However, Gatorade Endurance Formula may be the right choice during longer, more intense athletic occasions when sweat and electrolyte losses are substantial.

How to Use Gatorade Endurance Formula Sweat rates and fluid needs vary based on the athlete, the activity, and the environment, so the goal for each athlete should be to drink enough before, during and after exercise to minimize loss of body weight without over-drinking. Athletes should drink enough to keep dehydration to less than 2% of pre-exercise body weight for best performance (e.g., less than a 3-lb weight loss in a 150-lb athlete).

When the activity is prolonged or very intense, fluid and electrolyte losses substantially increase and maintaining hydration becomes both more difficult and more important. It is for these occasions that Gatorade Endurance Formula was created.

Nutrition Roundup

By Christopher Mohr

A LOOK AT CITRUS AURANTIUM The FDA’s one-year-old ban of the herb ephedra has left supplement companies looking for another product that can help people lose weight. Many companies claim they have found ephedra’s replacement in a thermogenic ingredient called synephrine, found in Citrus aurantium.

Athletes looking to lose weight quickly are seeing advertisements for Citrus aurantium and wondering if it is effective. What information can we provide them?

Citrus aurantium (also called Seville orange or sour orange) is a small citrus tree. The inedible portion of its immature fruit contains synephrine, a compound very similar to ephedrine. In fact, it’s often referred to as ephedrine’s chemical cousin.

In theory, the ingredient should be effective in promoting weight loss since it stimulates beta-3 receptors.

Beta-1 and beta-2 receptors cause a relaxation of smooth muscle and stimulation of cardiac muscle. The beta-3 receptors are responsible for lipolytic (fat burning) and thermogenic effects.

The ideal way to burn fat through a thermogenic agent would be to stimulate the beta-3 receptors and minimize the stimulation of the other two beta-receptors. Synephrine is supposed to do just that.

However, while this supplement has become very popular, only one weight-loss study on it has been published in a peer-reviewed journal to date. And that study did not isolate synephrine, but combined it with several other ingredients, making its specific effects difficult to extrapolate.

“The Effects of Citrus Aurantium Extract, Caffeine, and St. John’s Wort on Body Fat Loss, Lipid Levels, and Mood States in Overweight Healthy Adults” was authored

by C. Colker, et al., and published in Current Therapeutic Research in 1999 (60:3, pages 145-153). It looked at a product that contained 975 mg of Citrus aurantium extract (six percent synephrine compounds), 528 mg of caffeine, and 900 mg of St. John’s wort (three percent hypericum).

Subjects took the product for six weeks, and the researchers measured fat loss, weight, metabolic rate, blood lipids, blood pressure, and mood.

The researchers reported a 1.4 kg weight loss (3.08 pounds) in the supplement group versus a 0.9 kg loss (1.98 pounds) in the placebo group. Although these results were statistically significant, they were not compared to each other, but rather to the baseline value within the respective Christopher Mohr, MS, RD, LDN, is a doctoral student in Exercise Physiology at the University of Pittsburgh.

He is a registered and licensed dietitian and was a Sports Nutritionist at the University of Massachusetts for two years.

group. Therefore, it’s impossible to determine if the supplement group was significantly different from the placebo group. This leaves one unable to draw sound conclusions about the product’s efficacy for weight loss.

There was a significant increase in metabolic rate in the supplement group, which may translate to increased weight loss. But, considering the product contained about the same amount of caffeine as four cups of coffee, the increased metabolic rate was most likely due to the caffeine. Moreover, it is unknown if this adaptation was chronic or acute. It would be interesting to know if this effect would be reduced over time as the body grew accustomed to the dosages utilized.

At the time of this writing, there has been no other full-length peer-reviewed published literature on the use of Citrus aurantium for weight loss in humans. Therefore, the research to support Citrus aurantium as a weight-loss aid is very weak.

When considering any supplement, it is important to ask if there are any side effects. In the case of Citrus aurantium, the answer appears to be yes.

First of all, it has been shown that Citrus aurantium may interact with certain medications. There is some evidence that Citrus aurantium may increase stomach acid, so it could reduce the effectiveness of antacids and other acidinhibiting drugs. It may also inhibit a common pathway of metabolism for certain drugs (most commonly calcium channel blockers). Citrus aurantium also has the potential to increase blood pressure.

Another concern is the questions surrounding synephrine’s safety. It is currently on the FDA “watch list,” and some people fear it may have the same adverse effects as ephedra. Even though synephrine’s activation of the beta-1 and beta-2 receptors is limited, there is still uncertainty regarding its effects on the cardiovascular system. Because of its similarities to ephedra and the lack of research on Citrus aurantium, the FDA is keeping it under the microscope.

For now, athletic trainers and coaches should educate their athletes about this supplement. Citrus aurantium has been marketed to work like ephedra without the hazardous side effects. Athletic trainers and coaches can counter the hype by explaining that, in reality, little is known about the safety and efficacy of its main ingredient.

Of course, the best way to lose body fat is through a moderate reduction in energy intake and an increase in energy expenditure. Fat loss supplements are often viewed as a “quick fix” that offers results with little effort required. Athletes should be taught to look past the hype and the promises. ◆

T&C’s Comeback Athlete efisportsmedicine.com

January/February 2005 Winner

Head Strong Three-sport athlete Whitney Tyriver battles a rare cerebral condition.

By R.J. Anderson his winter, Whitney Tyriver is leading a pretty typical life for a freshman student-athlete. A guard on the University of WisconsinOshkosh women’s basketball team, she’s working hard for playing time and getting used to new teammates and college life.

But less than one year ago, her life was anything but typical. A threesport all-conference athlete at Oshkosh (Wis.) West High School, she struggled with excruciating headaches that kept her shuttling to and from the hospital and left doctors stumped for a solution.

In the end, she led Oshkosh West to a state title in basketball, willing herself to be headache-free for the championship run. But she did so in the face of pain that seemed to travel to different parts of her body and a fear of what was going to happen next.

Tyriver’s comeback story begins in Tennessee, when she was 11 years old and banged her head during a backyard family football game. Afterward, she suffered from severe headaches and was taken to Vanderbilt University Hospital. There, doctors diagnosed her with having a small hematoma as well as a cyst on her brain.

Tyriver was admitted to the hospital and doctors inserted a matchbook-sized shunt in her brain, designed

to draw cerebral spinal fluid from the brain into her stomach. Doctors hoped the shunt would relieve the pressure on her brain and alleviate the accompanying headaches.

A month after her surgery, which was considered a success, the Tyriver family moved to Wisconsin and she remained relatively headache-free.

Then, during her sophomore year in high school, Tyriver’s headaches returned. Her doctors said they were simply migraines, and unrelated to the shunt in her brain.

As time passed, the headaches became more frequent and more intense, sometimes so unbearable

Tyriver would go to the hospital and be put in a dark room. “It wasn’t like any pain I’d ever felt,” she says.

“Everything had to be silent, and I had to have a cold washcloth over my eyes. It was horrible.”

Tyriver says the pain was so intense it gave her seizures—two that she can remember. One happened in front of doctors during a visit to the ER. During the spring of her junior year, Tyriver was evaluated by Philip Yazbak, MD, a neurosurgeon at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Appleton, Wis. R.J.

Comeback Athlete Yazbak felt it was time to revise the shunt in her brain, which he thought had become clogged and was no longer effective. During the procedure, Yazbak cleaned out the tube running into her stomach and inserted a new shunt behind her left ear, one with an adjustable valve. Controlled by a magnet, the valve would allow doctors to regulate the flow of cerebral spinal fluid leaving the brain. Based on Tyriver’s symptoms, they could adjust the valve up or down—if her headaches got worse, they could open up the valve and release more fluid.

Following the procedure, Tyriver spent two weeks in the hospital. During that time she lost 17 pounds and most of her conditioning. At 6-feet tall and a slender 160 pounds, losing so much weight took a toll, says Dan Gehri, MS, LAT, CSCS, Athletic Trainer at Oshkosh West High School.

After coming home and being cleared to play sports, Tyriver began working with Gehri on an extensive rehabilitation program that started with low-level cardiovascular work, body weight resistance exercises, and low-level agility drills. Six weeks after her surgery, Tyriver regained the weight she had lost and began playing summer league basketball and doing off-season conditioning workouts.

She remained headache-free through the fall, earning all-conference honors in volleyball, and moved into the basketball season.

In early January, the basketball team was 11-1 and on track to defend its Division I state title from the previous year. It was then that Tyriver’s headaches returned, and they were more intense than ever. She would spend the next six weeks traveling back and forth to the emergency room.

“She was bedridden and in and out of the hospital for most of February,” says Gehri. “They’d release her, she’d go home, have excruciating pain, and the paramedics would have to take her back to the hospital. It was a roller coaster ride.”

Doctors were now treating her with morphine and other painkillers, but they had no idea what was causing

the 18-year-old’s pain. She had again lost nearly 20 pounds. And without Tyriver’s leadership and court presence, the basketball team slid into a major slump, losing five of their next nine games, and extinguishing any expectations of winning another state championship.

“It was devastating for her team because she would get out of the hospital and come to school looking okay. Then she would go right back to the hospital,” says Gehri. “At one point we had a team meeting and the coach told the team Whitney wasn’t coming back.”

It was then, with two weeks left in the regular season, that Tyriver’s headaches finally subsided and she made a dramatic recovery. For the next 14 days, Tyriver and Gehri began an abridged version of their previous summer workout program, which consisted of low-level aerobic workouts

on a recumbent bike and isometric strength training, progressing to working with medicine balls, shooting drills, jogging, and eventually sprinting and cutting drills.

“We had to be very careful. I didn’t want to do too much, have the headaches return, and be right back at square one,” says Gehri. “I was constantly monitoring her blood pressure and her pulse. It was such a rare situation that we had no idea what to expect and no guidelines to go by.

“Each day we progressed a little bit more and kept our fingers crossed that the headaches wouldn’t return,” he adds. “We were walking this really thin line as to how hard we could push her, knowing she wanted to come back as quickly as possible.”

They worked every day during practice and came in on Saturdays and Sundays. And Tyriver did her best to put the weight back on. “I had three lunches packed for school every day,” she says. “I ate constantly—peanut butter all day.”

Despite being headache-free, Tyriver complained of significant back pain. “At first her family doctor and I attributed it to her spending all that time in bed,” says Gehri. “We treated her with ice, heat, and exercises, and tried some anti-inflammatories, but the pain remained and we didn’t really find anything wrong with her back.”

Gehri and Tyriver’s family physician surmised that the pain wasn’t originating in her back, but that Tyriver was probably referring pain from her head to another area of her body.

“She just wasn’t going to allow the headaches to bother her,” says Gehri.

“So she toughed it out. Whitney was not going to keep her teammates from returning to the state tournament—her whole mindset was that she didn’t want to let her teammates down.”

And she didn’t. Midway through the first quarter of the team’s final regular season game, Teri Schumacher, Head Girls’ Basketball Coach at Oshkosh West, inserted Tyriver.

Entering to a loud, emotional ovation, Tyriver stepped on the court and her impact was felt immediately.

Comeback Athlete “When Whitney walked on the court a huge calm came over the team,” says Gehri. “Suddenly players were in the right spots, and they knew exactly what their roles were. The girls really started playing up to their potential because of her presence. We won by 30.”

The team maintained its high level of play for five more games and captured its second consecutive state championship. Tyriver slid back into the starting lineup and in each of the final three games she was assigned to guard the opposing team’s top post player. Despite giving up three or four inches to each of the players—all bound for Division I schools—Tyriver more than held her own while anchoring the Wildcats’ defense.

With a second straight state championship in hand, it would seem that Tyriver had achieved a storybook ending to her ordeal. But that was not the case.

After the state tournament Tyriver’s back pain continued, and five days later she was experiencing severe abdomi-

nal pain. Following yet another trip to the emergency room, she underwent a laproscopic procedure. Doctors suspected that she might have appendicitis, but found only an abdominal infection for which they placed her on antibiotics.

The pain lingered for the next week, and after another trip to the local ER, Tyriver was taken by ambulance to the University of Wisconsin Hospital in Madison, where doctors deduced that the infection had spread to her brain. “By that time, the side of my head with the shunt was puffed up and visibly infected,” says Tyriver. “My head was red, burning, and extremely painful when touched. They poked it thinking it was going to be spinal fluid but it turned out to be blood.”

Doctors determined that the shunt replaced the summer before had broken, causing the infection, which had spread to her abdomen, thus causing her stomach pain. They removed the broken shunt and kept Tyriver in the hospital to monitor her infection.

Though doctors were unable to pinpoint when the shunt broke, Gehri believes that the infection caused the back pain she experienced during the last few basketball games, and that she may have played with a broken shunt.

“Her physicians couldn’t believe that only a few weeks earlier Whitney had led her team to the state championship, given the pain she was in,” he says.

Her infection healed in two weeks, but doctors also put her through a series of tests after which Robert Dempsey, MD, a neurosurgeon at the hospital, concluded that Tyriver was suffering from a rare condition called Pseudo Tumor Cerebri—a narrowing of the blood vessels at the base of the skull. Dempsey performed an angioplasty and inserted stents at the base of Tyriver’s skull in an attempt to widen two of the blood vessels. The procedure was a partial success, and Tyriver now has a venous stent on the right side of her skull. Because he was unable to install a stent on the left side,

Comeback Athlete Dempsey inserted a lumbar shunt to help regulate the amount of cerebral spinal fluid in her brain.

Tyriver returned home, and with her teammates in the thick of their softball season, she undertook yet another round of rehab with Gehri. Four weeks after her release from the hospital, Tyriver was back playing shortstop.

During the team’s final seven games she batted .477 and lent her trademark leadership to a very young team.

“I’ve been an athletic trainer for 12 years and I’ve never met anyone tougher than Whitney,” says Gehri.

“She’s tenacious, a fighter, and she is not going to let her teammates down.

She will do whatever it takes to win.”

These days, she is doing whatever it takes to win at another level, with new challenges—but no headaches.

In choosing to attend the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, she is the only freshman on a team that went 21-6 last season and has had 20-win seasons in 10 of the last 11 years. She also plans to play softball in the spring.

She hasn’t had a headache since her surgery in April and her medical protocol consists of nothing more than check-ups with her doctors every six months. Tyriver says it is wonderful not needing any medical attention, not even from the school’s athletic trainers. “They just told me to let them know if the headaches start coming back,” she says.

With defense and toughness as her calling card, she has worked her way into the team’s playing rotation.

“I’m just trying to figure out where I fit in,” says Tyriver, who is studying elementary education in hopes of one day becoming a teacher.

Tyriver says her experience has put a lot into perspective. “I learned to just go out and work for what you want, and if stuff happens you have to deal with it,” she says. “I wasn’t expecting to get these headaches or to have all these surgeries, but I dealt with it. I also learned that there are a lot of people who care about me— like my mom, my teammates, Coach Schumacher, and Dan Gehri—and they really helped me out.” ◆

Get Back In The Game AirSport ® Ankle Brace Superior protection from inversion/eversion compared to a lace-up or tape. Unique rear-entry design for comfort, protection, and speed — just “step in, strap up, and go!”

Armband Designed to treat tennis elbow, the Armband uses an aircell to concentrate compression on the extensor muscle, not around the arm — providing more support, less constriction.

AirHeel™ With every step, the AirHeel’s dual aircells provide pulsating compression to help reduce the symptoms of plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis. Lightweight and simple to apply — just slip it on like a sock.

Performance & Nutrition Organizing the Daily Training Session – Strength

by Joe Kenn, MA, CSCS Joe Kenn Head Coach, Sports Performance, Arizona State University Introduction Training success in the weight room setting can come down to many programmable factors—sets and rep schemes, exercise choices, training methodology and nutrition—to name a few. In order for a program to become successful regardless of the x’s and o’s utilized, a simple outline of the daily session cannot be overlooked. An organized program leads to commitment from your athletes with results that speak for themselves.

The 3 Part Plan We believe in a three-part plan when designing any of our programs: (1) Pre Work Out, (2) Main Session and (3) Post Work Out. Our plan is based on an 80-minute training session, but an exceptional athlete who is well conditioned and efficient can complete the entire plan in less than 60 minutes.

The Pre Work Out – 10 minutes The pre work out includes quicks, power zone development, and dynamic flexibility/mobility drills.

Quicks Quicks are fast feet drills we use to start the session to warm up the body (jump roping, ladders, and mini hurdles) and is usually done for 3 minutes.

Power Zone Development Power Zone Development (torso

training) has become a more integral part of our daily plan. This is based on training the abdominals, obliques, glutes, erectors, and hamstrings. We incorporate flexion/extension, lateral flexion, stabilization, rotation, and posterior chain (glutes, erectors, hamstrings) exercises throughout the weekly plan to improve power zone strength.

Dynamic Flexibility/Mobility Drills The dynamic flexibility program consists of hurdle mobility drills along with lower and upper body movements done with the use of medicine balls, PVC, standard/mini barbells, light dumbbells, and mini bands/surgical tubing.

The Main Session – 60 minutes Our philosophy is to train the entire body during each training session, 3 days per week year round. We use an up-tempo approach without sacrificing technical efficiency of exercises and/or skipping sets.

The Post Work Out – 10 minutes The post work out is the final part of the daily training plan, which includes: joint integrity drills, dynamic flexibility/mobility drills and static flexibility/relengthening.

Joint Integrity Joint Integrity is where the athlete performs exercises or drills throughout the week for the main joints affected the most by injury during athletics (ankle, knee, hip, elbow, and shoulder).

Dynamic Flexibility/Mobility Drills Basic Hurdle drills similar to the pre work out also are done at the completion of the session.

Static Flexibility-Relengthening The session is concluded with static/isometric movements for the hip flexors, hamstrings, and chest/shoulder regions of the body.

Pre-Post Training Nutrition One of the most overlooked areas in a successful training program is proper nutrition.We recommend that our athletes consume a pre and postworkout beverage containing a combination of carbs and quality protein within 30 minutes before and after the session. We prefer the MET-Rx Collegiate Series Nutrition Shakes or MASS Food bars for this purpose.

Summing It Up As coaches, it’s up to us to do the very best we can in designing a program that leads to enhancing the physical capabilities of our athletes.

Here are some additional steps that can help in the development of an organized training plan: 1 – List the most important components that should be implemented into your training session.

2 – Place these components in an order that best serves the goal of the session and program.

3 – Choose the type of exercises that can best serve these purposes.

4 – Evaluate the training session and provide feedback.

5 – Manage daily time requirements (class schedule, high school weight training class and NCAA weekly time allotments) to make sure the daily training session fits into the time allotted.

iofreeze® pain-relieving gels, roll-ons, and spray products are quite possibly the most effective pain relievers available. When applied generously, athletes and patients will experience relief within minutes. Biofreeze is effective enough to relieve pain from sore muscles, muscle spasms, strains, sprains, tendonitis, upper and lower backaches, and sore joints, and it helps minimize next-day aches and pains. Biofreeze also aids in reducing swelling and inflammation. Use Biofreeze gel before ultrasound for soft-tissue injuries and muscle spasms. Patients will benefit from the dual modality of a prolonged external cooling sensation and internal warmth that lasts for hours after treatment. Biofreeze gels can also be used in situations requiring ice and breathable wraps, or blended with water for ice cups. Biofreeze can be used as often as necessary (up to four times a day) and is available in 16-oz., 32-oz., and gallon gel-pump bottles, and in a 16-oz. spray bottle. Also available is a gravity dispenser box filled with 100 single use application packets (5 g each) for use in the clinic or athletic training room. And 4-oz. gel tubes, 3-oz. roll-ons, and 4-oz. spray bottles are perfect for athletic supply bags or for home use.

eraSport® hydration drink is the preferred choice of many serious athletes—from high school and collegiate athletes to professionals. The athletes who use it will attest to the fact that CeraSport, developed with help from Johns Hopkin’s physicians, hydrates better than any sports drink on the market.

CeraSport’s blend of complex rice carbohydrates, electrolytes, and low osmolality provides sustained absorption of fluids, salts, and energy for optimal hydration and peak performance. The Cera process, in which absorption happens through small-, medium-, and long-chain carbohydrate delivery, helps eliminate cramping, nausea, and other side effects that often occur with sugar-based sports drinks.

As a result, athletes and others who lose sweat and are at risk for dehydration can drink more CeraSport for a higher rate of sweat replacement and extended energy release. CeraSport is liquid fuel for peak performance.
