MESSAGE FROM THE EDITORS Falling in love with running didn’t just change my outlook in life, it transformed my thoughts on food. Food was no longer an enemy. It became my fuel for better performance. In this month’s issue, we talk nutrition. Fitness coach and good friend Mitch FelipeMendoza debunks training and diet myths and Maris Balatibat teaches us how to avoid those nasty cravings that wreak havoc on our healthy diets. Coach Andy Leuterio tells us how fast we need to run to burn fat and the proper frequency of training per week. To help us cook healthier meals, we feature kitchen gadgets to assist you with better portion control and eating well. Of course, we also “whet your appetite” with the latest triathlon gear in the market. Missed out on the past month’s races? We’ve covered the South Luzon 240km Ultramarathon, Salomon Xtrail, and SBR. ph’s Aquaman, Duaman, and Triman. Here’s to many more races ahead… and a lifetime of sumptuous wholesome meals to help us race better!

I've had the privilege of witnessing the growing passion for endurance sports, and I've seen the pursuit of excellence from all the athletes who have raced in our country. Our cover story epitomizes this, and we are proud to share the story of Dhill Anderson Lee. His goal is to be the fastest Filipino swimmer in the 50 and 100 meter butterfly by breaking the national record of 24.2 seconds. In this issue, we sit down with Kim Atienza, Donjie Dormitorio, and Alex Panlilio, and talk about the joy of being an inspiration to their young ones in the Father's Day special feature. We also discuss the significance of knowing your Functional Threshold Pace in running. I firmly believe in this because you will learn to properly pace yourself in a race, which decreases your chances of pushing too hard, too soon. We’ll also talk about post-training nutrients and show you why it’s a determinant in your training development and race day readiness. Summer may be over, but we're just warming up for another exciting half of the year ahead. See you on the road!

OUR PANEL OF EXPERTS ANSWERS YOUR MOST PRESSING ENDURANCE SPORTS DILEMMAS

OGIO 8.0:

THE BAG THAT MEANS BUSINESS

Q: A:

How fast do I need to run so that I know that I’m really burning fat effectively?

To burn fat effectively by increasing your metabolism and get the most bang for your buck in a relatively short workout (60 minutes or less), then you need to ratchet up the intensity. High Intensity Interval Training (or HIIT), circuit workouts, fartleks, and interval sessions at 5k to 10k race pace burn more calories per hour than slower, aerobic sessions. These high-intensity sessions also keep you burning post-workout calories, a high percentage of these being fat. But you can only do so many high intensity sessions in a week. And these won't help much for endurance sports that put a premium on aerobic efficiency. Therefore, if your goal is to become a hyper-efficient fat burning, long distance machine, the majority of your workouts should be aerobic. I like to use Mark Allen's simple formula of 180-age + 5 bpm to 10 bpm for experienced athletes and -5 bpm to 10bpm for less experienced athletes. Setting this aerobic

threshold ceiling keeps a check on your intensity. Running at this HR range should be "talk-able" or roughly 75-85 percent of your 10k race pace or threshold HR pace. To add strength to a workout like this, I like to run/ride on hilly terrains while maintaining a controlled rhythm. Be sure to hydrate properly and refuel a bit with a gel or banana perhaps after the first hour. Remember, "Fat burns in a carbohydrate fire".

Q:three days in a row?

Is it okay to work out

If it were up to me, I would train every day of the week! But being a triathlete with a job, a family, and a life, we have to consider the work-tri-life balance, not to mention recovery from each sport. Each athlete recovers differently from each discipline, but most age-groupers will average two to three workouts per sport a week, evenly spaced out in a Swim-Bike-Run daily sequence most of the time.

However, there might be periods that focus on one or two disciplines only, in which case I’ll prescribe a higher frequency or volume for the athlete. So, it's not strange to have three days straight of swimming (or cycling or running) followed by one to two days of the other sports. Fatigue inevitably builds up after a period of time, so a three-day micro block would work on something like an easy-day focus on technique, a hard-day focus on long muscle endurance or intervals, then an "easy" recovery day focus on just pedaling through fatigue. I'll even give someone a 10-day "crash" block if the situation warrants it (say, for someone who wants to do well in a stage road race or an ultra). There are no hard and fast rules with how many days/ weeks. The key is to consider the athlete's ability to absorb each workout's objective, and to schedule everything accordingly to allow a proper build up, taper, and peak.

7 HUNGER FIXES

TIPS TO CURB CRAVINGS IN BETWEEN MEALS

BY MARIS M. BALATIBAT

For athletes, proper nutrition and staying within a desirable body weight range are key components to great performance. But maintaining the two can be difficult specially during training days due to food cravings. Practice these smart and simple ways to stop cravings between meals.

1 DON'T SKIP BREAKFAST. Breakfast-skippers tend to eat more than usual or nibble on high-calorie snacks. Consuming breakfast is key to jumpstarting your metabolism. During sleep, our body uses energy to repair itself and it undergoes a fasting state for six to 10 hours (depending on each individual’s hours of sleep). Skipping breakfast prolongs this state thus putting your body on “starvation mode,” which causes your blood sugar to drop. To cope with the starvation and low blood sugar, you tend to eat more throughout the day. Low blood sugar levels are associated with lower overall blood flow to the brain, which can jeopardize your ability to make good decisions.

2 EAT FOOD RICH IN NUTRIENTS AND LONGLASTING ENERGY.

ENDURANCE SPORTS | WWW.ENDURANCE.PH

Choose from fruits, veggies, legumes, whole grains, nuts, lowfat dairy and lean meats. Make sure that protein contributes 30 percentof your regular meal. Protein is a very satisfying nutrient, and when eaten with high-fiber carbohydrates, helps increase the feeling of fullness for longer period. Fibrous foods also can take longer to chew, giving your brain time to get the signal that you have had enough to eat.

3 EAT CARBOHYDRATES THAT DO NOT SPIKE YOUR BLOOD SUGAR. Eliminate

refined sugars, sodas, and fruit juices, as these can trigger cravings between meals. Choose food low in glycemic index like multigrain bread, coffee, lowfat cheese, apples, green leafy vegetables oatmeal, tea, yogurt, rolled oats, cranberry juice, nuts, bananas, saging saba, sweet potato, and vegetable juices.

4 AVOID YOUR TRIGGERS.

Identify the people, places, and things that trigger your cravings and plan ahead so you avoid making unhealthy choices. Most cravings will pass within 15 to 20 minutes, so if you can find something else to occupy your mind for a while, do it, and you may just find relief.

5 DRINK MORE WATER.

Sometimes hunger is disguised as dehydration. Try drinking a lot of water between your meals to make you feel fuller and help you moderate your food intake.

6 MANAGE STRESS.

Stress triggers hormones that activate cravings and leads to “comfort-eating.” Take up yoga or integrate time management skills into your routine. Even a short walk and deep breathing help release endorphins, known as the "happy hormones" and improve oxygen levels in your body thus lowering your stress level.

7 WORK OUT REGULARLY. Research shows that regular physical activity can curb cravings. Making exercise a part of your daily routine can help you stick to your healthy eating plan. Regular exercise increases your metabolism. A higher metabolism means you can process the food you eat more efficiently, thus the nutrients and minerals that you eat from your major meals are absorbed properly. This, in turn, reduces your food cravings, since cravings are often a result of your body missing important nutrients.

THE DAILY MULTIVITAMIN DESIGNED FOR ATHLETES Enervon Activ is specially designed for progressive athletes to build stamina and help them to keep training and performing. Each capsule is packed with B-complex, ginseng and royal jelly to provide powerful boosts of energy, antioxidant, Vitamins A, C, E, and Zinc to strengthen immunity and a special blend of Mineral SIUM 5X™ formula to improve muscle control. Take one Enervon Activ everyday to ensure better performance in training and on race day.

Make sure that protein contributes 30 percent of your regular meal. Protein is a very satisfying nutrient, and when eaten with highfiber carbohydrates, helps increase the feeling of fullness for longer period.

Vitamins and dietary supplements have a place in our nutrition plans but these should not replace the nutrients and benefits you can get from real, whole foods. The primary function of vitamins and supplements is to fill in small nutrient gaps. “The big power is on the plate, not in the pill,” according to Roberta Anding, MS, RD, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association and director of sports nutrition at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston. Numerous studies have shown the health benefits and effectiveness of supplementing missing nutrients in the diet. Vitamin and mineral supplements can help prevent deficiencies that can contribute to chronic conditions. It pays to know what vitamins and minerals lack in your diet and seek these when looking for the proper supplement. Enervon Activ, for one, is packed with energy boosters that are fit for active individuals.

COVER STORY

OF HIS OWN ACCORD

Dhill Anderson Lee trains hard to attain his ultimate dream and prepares for a splashy comeback. By Sarah Moran

o achieve his goal of becoming the fastest Filipino swimmer, triathlon has to take a backseat, but only for a while. Dhill Anderson Lee, 23, has his eyes on the prize: break the 50m and 100m butterfly record in the Philippines this July in the Speedo National Championships. The country’s record is 24.2 seconds, held by Fil-Am swimmer Daniel Coakley, who is Lee’s close friend. “I actually ask him tips on how I can break his record,” Lee quips. His present time is 25.2 seconds for the 50m butterfly and 55.8 seconds for 100 meters. (The International Swimming Federation (FINA) World Championship record for the 50m butterfly is 22.67 seconds held by Milorad Cavic of Serbia, while the US’s Michael Phelps holds the record for the 100m butterfly at 49.82 seconds. —Eds.) But triathlon lured him away from swimming.

FORAY INTO TRIATHLON In 2012, a friend called Lee asking if he’d be interested to try out for triathlon team Alaska Team TBB. “It was funny because I actually learned how to bike just a week before my first triathlon,” Lee says. Under the guidance of coach Mathieu O’Halloran, I learned how to do triathlon really well,” he adds. His debut was the Century Tuna 5150 in Subic on June 24, 2012. He surprised himself with a third place finish in the 20-24 age group, with an impressive time of 2:51:58. “I fell off my bike during training so much my coach [Mat O’Halloran] was worried that I might not be able to finish the race,” Lee recalls. “He messaged Coach Brett Sutton to ask for advice. But he [Sutton] just wanted us to race so we just practiced every single day of that week before the race.” To make it more memorable, he was recognized as the fastest Filipino swimmer with a time of 18 minutes for the 1.5-k swim, emerging from the water on the heels of pro triathletes Csaba Kuttor, Ben Allen, and Dave Dellow. O’Halloran knows that Lee, a very fast learner, has a great potential in triathlon, “Dhill got to appreciate the simplicity of swimming more after his time doing triathlon as it opened his perspective, gave him better mental endurance and develop different overall abilities as a person,” says O’Halloran. He added that a lot of pressure was put on Dhill when the team was started but, “he gradually developed as a young adult by knowing the realities, sacrifices, and demands of real-world sport. In the end, those lessons will transfer well into any other life endeavor he may take on and confront.” Under O’Halloran, Lee cycled at least three times a week, and ran and swam once a day, every day. “If

Can’t train without: my Arena Carbon Pro for swimming, it’s a compression suit that makes me feel fast in the water. I also like Skins. It really helps me avoid cramps. I listen to: electronic dance or upbeat music when I run or bike. I can’t listen to anything when I swim

you have a good coach, you improve faster. When I became better at biking, he sent me to trails to bike for me to get optimal leg strength.” Lee was 21 then. To this day, Lee considers the most challenging training for him as the 21k trail run in Corregidor that his coach made him join. He fell ill the next day. “I finished it but it was really painful,” he says. He spent 2012 and 2013 joining triathlon races like Cobra Ironman 70.3 in Cebu, White Rock 70.3 in Zambales, and Century Tuna 5150. “During White Rock 70.3, my coach was there all the way. He went with us and cheered us on even though it was very humid and hot,” he recalls. At the 2013 Cobra Ironman 70.3, he and his Alaska Team TBB teammates raced in the mix relay, with Lee doing the 90K bike leg. They finished 3rd place.

RETURN TO SWIMMING However, he faced a dilemma. While he was already enjoying doing triathlon, his swim rankings were suffering. “Before I went into triathlon, I was points away from the Philippine record in both 50m and 100m butterfly.” In 2014, Lee decided to focus on swimming. “I hope to break the [Philippine] record this year. But definitely in 2016, I’ll be able to break the record. I also want to qualify for Olympics [2016, in Rio de Janeiro],” Lee says. Lee considers the Philippine team’s Top 8 finish during the 12th FINA World Swimming Championships in Doha, Qatar last December 2014 as his most memorable race experience. He battled the flu during the event and had to take naps during breaks but he performed a personal best. The Philippine team qualified for the Men’s 4x50m Freestyle Relay final. The team composed of Lee, Jeremy Bryan Lim, Fahad Alkhaldi, and Jessie Khing, clocked 1:34.3 to place 8th in the morning preliminary and advance to the evening finals; a first World Championship finals appearance for the Philippines in the history of Philippine swimming. Still in 8th place, they improved their time to 1:33.12 in the evening finals. “It was a historical moment for us because it’s the first time that the Philippines qualified as Top 8 in the world in the FINA Championships and I’m very proud of it,” says Lee. Apart from breaking the existing swim record and going back to racing in triathlon competitively, Lee also wants to do better in coaching aspiring swimmers. “My students inspire me to become the best that I can be.” At 23, Dhill Anderson Lee is taking it a day at a time, training harder and smarter; pursuing his dream and seeing where it takes him.

so when I‘m going through those boring laps, I visualize my race plan, the way I want to race in the meet that I’m training for, and focus on finding small ways to be better and faster. I love to eat or drink— before a race: a light meal and a cup of coffee

during a race: for swimming, it’s bananas. For triathlon, it’s snack bars and chocolate bars. post-race: chocolate milk or protein shake I also enjoy basketball, playing the ukulele, writing songs, drawing, and dancing.

BY SAUL ANTHONY I. SIBAYAN, MSS, TSAC-F

echnology has assisted athletes and healthconscious people with their fitness goals. One of the current trends in sports is physiological testing (expensive but effective), done in a sports science or exercise physiology laboratory to test an individual using gas analyzers to get your blood lactate threshold, ventilatory threshold , and VO2max as a basis for establishing training zones. In the past, training zones were based on one’s maximum heart rate. But one of the more valid tests for endurance is the lactate threshold (LT). First, let’s discuss some basic terms and principles. When we perform high-intensity exercises, carbohydrates are the pre-dominant source of energy that our bodies use. Lactate, is an intermediate by-product of carbohydrates breaking down in the muscle. So, when we push too hard, our muscles use our stored carbohydrate (also known as glycogen) and lactate is one of its by-products. Therefore, LT can be defined as the maximum steadystate effort that can be maintained by a person without a continuous increase in lactate production. This means that you’re not running too lightly and not too hard that you’re hitting your red zone too early. Majority of good training plans for running would include workouts that are planned to be done at LT intensity. Why train in LT intensity? It’s

because LT training is an effective and efficient way to build fitness. In running, LT is the fastest pace that can be sustained for 30 to 60 minutes (close to 30 minutes for less fit runners, and close to 60 minutes for very fit runners). Stephen McGregor, PhD, director of the Running Science Laboratory of Eastern Michigan University, refers to Lactate Threshold as the Functional Threshold Pace (FTP). LT is a physiological phenomenon that happens when you run at a certain pace or effort. This pace or effort exerted in running is your Functional Threshold Pace. This is because pace is the unit of measurement, which is time in relation to a distance metric, either minutes per kilometer (min/km) or minutes per mile (min/mi) for running. Knowing your FTP has numerous benefits. It helps you: • develop the right training zones based on your current fitness level; • train close to your LT to improve your fitness level gradually, effectively, and efficiently • pace yourself in a race which decreases your chances of pushing too hard too soon, going into the red zone, and not recovering; • and gauge your improvement (whether you’re plateauing, or your fitness level has decreased, or adjustments to your training have to be made).

A good test of your FTP would be the 5k and 10k runs. Test yourself by finishing a 5k or 10k as fast as possible. Perform such 5k or 10k test runs every four to six weeks and compare with your previous results. Always get a good night’s rest of at least six to eight hours or do a light training day before performing a test. Be wellfueled, hydrated, and perform the test at the same time and place to allow for validity and comparison of results. In lieu of the FTP, getting a watch with GPS (global positioning system) that also has a heart rate monitor (HRM) is your best bet. Advances in timekeeping and watch technology mean easier and better ways of tracking improvements in fitness, along with the added value of giving feedback on our training session, and preventing overtraining. By having the GPS track your pace and the HRM check the response of your body, these let you know how well you are adapting to training. This is where the “know pain, know gain” approach comes in. Joe Friel, a well-known endurance coach uses the term decoupling to describe the point at which your usual heart rate at a certain pace is not the same. When this happens, you’re now ready for a higher intensity training regime. Couple this with your Rating of Perceived Exertion, and you have a useful tool in assessing your current fitness status.

RECOVERY FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE

MINUTES AFTER AN INTENSE TRAINING SESSION, YOUR BODY REQUIRES SUFFICIENT NUTRIENTS FOR RECOVERY, REPAIR AND NOURISHMENT IN ORDER TO PERFORM BETTER FOR THE NEXT TRAINING SESSION OR ON RACE DAY.

BY ARMAND MENDOZA

SHUT TERSTOCK.COM

ow an athlete feeds himself with adequate post-training nutrients is one of the most important determinants of his development during training and readiness for race day. Eating nutritiously post-race ensures that the athlete’s body is repaired,rebuilt, and further improved. Hence, post-training nutrition is as important as presession fueling during the whole training program. Here’s what to consider for posttraining nutrition. EAT WITHIN ONE HOUR AFTER TRAINING. This helps ensure that the repair and recovery process is not delayed and it prevents you from getting energy dips throughout the day especially if you train in the morning. INCLUDE BOTH CARBOHYDRATES AND PROTEIN in your post-recovery meal to ensure maximal recovery and repair. EAT FRUITS. They are rich in electrolytes, vitamins and minerals. Avoid high-fat foods to prevent undesired weight gain and indigestion. GET ADEQUATE FLUIDS FOR YOUR BODY WEIGHT. The classic

Helps in tissue repair and increases immunity. Found in fruits and broccoli.

ZINC Helps in immunity.

VITAMIN A Helps in skin repair and helps keep your eyes healthy. Found in carrots and squash.

PROTEIN belief of drinking two liters a day is outdated and baseless. New research has recommended that athletes drink according to their body weight and gender MALE FLUID DAILY REQUIREMENT: Body weight (lbs) x 10.36 = mL of water FEMALE FLUID DAILY REQUIREMENT: Bodyweight (lbs) x 9.176 = mL of water

KEEP SNACKS HANDY. A piece of fruit, a cup of yogurt, or an energy bar can stave off cravings in case your next proper meal is hours away. GET FOODS THAT ARE NUTRIENTDENSE. These are green, leafy veggies, fruits, fish, poultry, and lean meats, all of which have certain nutrients that can help the body repair itself. EAT IN REGULAR TWO TO FOURHOUR INTERVALS THROUGHOUT THE DAY to prevent hunger pangs and energy dips. IF YOU TRAIN AT NIGHT EAT A LIGHT BUT NUTRITIOUS SNACK like fruits or whole wheat crackers that’s not too strenuous for the body to digest which may cause difficulty to sleep. LOAD UP ON POTASSIUM. Taking fruits rich in potassium help prevent post- training soreness and cramps. Examples are apples, bananas, pears,

guava, melon, watermelon and coconut juice. AVOID HIGHLY PROCESSED FOODS LIKE HOTDOGS, SAUSAGES AND CHIPS. These have chemicals that are not helpful for optimal recovery. INCLUDE FLUID-RICH FOODS like fresh vegetables and watery fruits. They help optimize hydration especially if you’re an athlete who isn’t too keen on drinking too much water. FISH-BASED OR VEGETABLE SOUPS and healthy broths are great ways to get post-training nutrients. TAKE IN CARBOHYDRATE DRINKS like Gatorade, coconut juice, and fruit juices. They help speed up rehydration and recovery from fatigue because they contain carbs, electrolytes and salt which are all essential for recovery. AVOID OR MODERATE THE DRINKING OF ALCOHOL AFTER TRAINING. It increases the chances of dehydration in your next training session which will diminish your performance. EAT LEAN MEATS, FISH, POULTRY, AND DAIRY PRODUCTS to meet up your protein requirement for each day. These help rebuild and repair the muscles used during training.

Recreational athletes Kim Atienza, Alex Panlilio, and Donjie Dormitorio share how they’ve inspired their kids to love sports. INTERVIEWS BY SARAH MORAN

KIM ATIENZA

What is your role in developing your kids’ skills?

What sports do you all do together?

I motivate them by example. I make it clear to them that although we’re passionate about it, triathlon is a hobby. This means if it eats up the schedule for family or school, huwag na muna. Extra-curricular activities are very important in molding the character of my children so I want them to be active in sports. In the same way, I want them to be very focused in school and their relationship in the family.

We love running together. Jose and Eliana go to takbo.ph and runrio.com and they choose races and they tell me what races they want to run. I fix my schedule so we can run together.

How did they get interested in triathlon? Well, they’ve seen me very passionate about it. They see me preparing for it and training for it. They see other kids also enjoying it, so ayun, nahawa.

How often do they train? Jose has been doing triathlon for two years and Eliana for a year. Jose is more competitive than Eliana. He trains at least three times a week with Coach Ige Lopez. Hindi ko masyadong binubugbog sa workout because I want them to enjoy it. For them, it has to be like play. Jose doesn’t bike more than 10 km and also takes swimming lessons with Coach Nonoy Basa.

What races has he joined? Jose joined Ironkids in Cebu last August 2014 and the Anvaya Triathlon in October 2013, and some short-distance triathlons. But he has joined a lot of run races. He’s broken 30 minutes kid's profile Jose, 12, into triathlon, football and Eliana, 10, into triathlon trivia: Favorite athlete/triathlete: Pete Jacobs. I’ve run with him several times. Whenever he races here, I can see that he really is in love with the country.

for the 5K run.

48, TV host, triathlete

What’s your most memorable moment in sports together? I remember Jose’s first triathlon in Anvaya two years ago. I ran with him when he finished and he was just so happy. Another memorable experience with him was when he did his first 10K, the New Balance Power Run this year. He finished it in good time, 1:08. I ran the last kilometer with him. With Eliana, she was signed up for her very first 3K run. I ran with her and we accidentally did 5k instead. But she finished it! Now she can run 5k very comfortably.

What challenges do you encounter in keeping your kids in sports? How to keep them interested in triathlon. Now, Jose is becoming Favorite father-kid bonding activity: We like to eat together. We make it a point to eat together twice a day, breakfast and dinner. Favorite gear: My bicycle, Cervelo P5. Jose, his Felt F85 bike Favorite snacks: I eat like a diabetic although I’m not. No sugar all the time. My carbs, I get from brown rice. I eat

very interested in soccer. I understand that triathlon can take a backseat, which is fine. When they’re young, I cannot force what they can be passionate about. Whatever it is they’re passionate with, eventually will stick; so walang pilitan. I just want them to play.

Is your spouse supportive of you and your kids? Feli is as supportive as I am because she does all the back work. Siya naghahatid-sundo niyan. Feli is into strength training in the gym and a lot of core work. She’s comfortable running 5 to 10k, but on the treadmill.

Does Jose experience any pressure from his peers to be athletic especially because his dad is a triathlete? He wants to finish fast so the pressure comes from him because he doesn’t want to let me down. But as a parent, I just allow him to have fun.

What’s next for you and your kids? The A-Race for all of us is the IRONMAN 70.3 in Cebu this August for me and IRONKIDS for Jose. We always look forward to this. When Jose is older, maybe he’ll join his first Olympic distance, eventually his first 70.3, and his first full IRONMAN. a lot of fruits and lean meat. With the kids, I limit the junk food but I also allow them a bit of it because they’re young. I know that they can burn it. What’s the best lesson that you learned from your kids? If you are to excel, you better be having fun. If you don’t have fun, you can’t excel.

KIM ATIENZ A , ALE X PA NLILIO, DONJIE DORMITORIO

f you’re a parent who lives the active lifestyle, it’s a source of pride when your kids show interest in what you do, and say that they want to become just like you. Three dads in the endurance sports community are happy to share the spotlight with their equally active and competitive “mini-me”.

ALEX PANLILIO 46, operating vice president, Unilab Consumer Health Sports: triathlon, running, basketball, badminton, diving

What sports do you and your children do together? Running and swimming. They just learned how to bike. I’m also a football dad.

How did your kid get interested in sports? They used to watch me play basketball in the alumni league. Then they started running at the Run United events. They fell in love with football and swimming when we signed them up for Football Fanatics and Lozada Swim classes.

How often do your kids train? The kids train football twice a week. Swimming three times a week. I watch them play football and swim. We’ve been biking together.

How serious are your kids about sports? Zach loves football and joins competitions. He joins Alia for swim

DONJIE DORMITORIO 45, managing director of Agronutrition Enterprises, mountain biking coach.

What sports are you and Ariana involved in? Cycling (mountain bike & road bike)

How did Ariana get interested in sports? When I got hooked on mountain biking eight years ago, first as a hobby then as a serious racer, she would also tag along on my rides and then later, join the races I was in.

training. Alia is serious with swimming and competes. She also joins Zach for football training. They used to do gymnastics together.

What is your role in your children’s love for sports? I try to motivate by example. I have them see me train. Often, they want to run or swim with me, so when we can, we do it at the end of my training sessions. We bike together after my training ride. I am there for all their competitions and most of their training. I always give them feedback and encouragement each time I watch them. I call them “tips” so they won’t feel too much pressure.

What’s your most memorable moment in sports together? It’s whenever I watch them. But there was this time in April 2014 when I did the Pico Tri. I had a bad race. My goggles kept taking water in. My bike was not good too, and my run was so-so. It was my worst Olympic-distance finish time. But as I ran to the finish line, they ran beside me.

country. She’s also a brand ambassador for Specialized bikes, Rotor, Vitargo, San Marino Tuna, Blackbeard’s Seafood Island’s, and several other brands.

What races has Ariana joined so far? She has won more than 70 races locally and internationally. Major achievements are winning the gold in the ASEAN MTB Cup, Philippine National Games MTB, and the Philippine National Junior Female MTB.

What is your role in her sports development?

That was the best finish despite the worst time.

Is your spouse supportive of you and your kid being active in sports? Is she also into sports? My wife, Pia, is very supportive. She runs and is into badminton.

Do you feel your kids experience any pressure from their peers because of your occupation as an executive of a company that strongly espouses an active lifestyle? (laughs) No. I’m not known that way. I’m known as Zach’s or Alia’s dad. But I did grow up in the U.S. having always been into sports. I tried sports like American football, high jump, triple jump, long jump, squash, you name it. My brothers and I played baseball and snooker! I try to make my kids appreciate sports first by watching it. If they show interest, we let them try it. We never pressure them and they pursue sports based on their interest and passion.

trivia: Favorite athlete/ triathlete: Mirinda Carfrae Favorite father-kid bonding activity besides training: Playing games from charades to Lego; “war games” to Wii Sports like FIFA 15 and Just Dance. Favorite gear and why? The Garmin 920XT, great upgrade from 910XT. light and dependable; and the

Saucony Kinvara 5, light with the right cushion Favorite snacks: Peanut butter sandwich (using bagels) or Active Health Carb Gel before I train or race. During race, I take the Active Health Carb Gel and Pocari Sweat. Postrace, Enervon HP, bananas, egg, rice with protein What’s the greatest lesson that you learned from your kid? Have no fear but truly love what you do. Otherwise, why do it?

We worked doubly hard in preparing for this and when she won it was really very satisfying for both of us.

Is your spouse supportive of you both being active in sports? My wife, Vaneza is supportive, 100 percent. If this was not so, I do not think we would be able to achieve what we have done so far. Family support is very important.

What’s next for you and Ariana?

We train almost daily together, doing drills on the bike that I, as her coach, have programmed for us, as well as several sessions in the gym as well.

I have trained her in all aspects of the sport and have developed a training program that has been modified as she grows older. I motivate her by explaining to her everything that she can achieve if she works hard for it.

This year we have the ASEAN MTB Cup series of races for her (two more legs; she won the first 2), as well as The Asian Mountain Bike Championships in November in Malaysia, and the Philippine Nationals also in November.

How serious is Ariana about mountain biking?

TRAINING & NUTRITION MYTHS DEBUNKED

DITCH THE CARBS. WORK OUT HARD. REWARD YOURSELF WITH ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT MEAL. EXERCISE EVERY DAY. THESE ARE SOME OF THE TALES YOU’VE HEARD AND HERE’S WHY YOU SHOULDN’T FOLLOW THEM. BY MITCH FELIPE MENDOZA, MA, PTRP

“I need to do more cardio first before I start or resume resistance training so I can lose weight faster.” Weight loss is more effective if combined with resistance training so you can build muscles, which are responsible for speeding up metabolism, thus burning more calories so that you lose weight faster.

“I will take out bread and rice from my diet so I can lose weight and get fitter.” Remove starch like rice and bread from your diet, and you’ll lack the energy to exercise. Your body will also crave sweets like cakes and pastries, which are higher in calories. Choose brown rice which contains more fiber than white rice, and control your portions.

“To lose weight, I need to stop eating before 6 p.m.” Your last meal of the day depends on the time you go to bed. Eat three hours before your sleeping time to avoid hunger pangs at night. If you eat too early and sleep too late, there’s a bigger chance of getting hungry later in the evening that leads to unnecessary bingeeating. You can still lose weight as long as you eat the recommended amount of food needed for you to achieve your weight goals.

ENDURANCE SPORTS | WWW.ENDURANCE.PH

“Protein powders and supplements will help me gain more muscle.” You can definitely get the right amount of protein needed by your body from real foods such as milk, egg, poultry, red meat, seafood and even starch like rice. It’s way better to eat natural foods containing important vitamins and minerals than relying too much from supplements. Make it a habit to enjoy healthy, nutritious meals.

“It’s better to exercise on an empty stomach to speed up weight loss.” Exercising on an empty stomach early in the morning is okay if your workouts are short and moderate in intensity. However, doing exercise, or long runs, and bike rides for hours without eating a light pre-workout meal such as bread and banana will affect your training performance,as well as your energy levels, and your recovery.

“I will do whatever it takes so I can train early in the morning even if I lack sleep.” Getting the right amount of sleep (seven to eight hours) is as important as having the right amount and type of diet and physical activity. Less than six hours of sleep before a training session or race won’t lead to the best training session the next day. Sleep is very important for recovery, weight management, and exercise performance.

“I can train hard and eat less on weekdays so I can treat myself on weekends.” Avoiding excess and extremes are important in eating and exercise so you can make healthy living a lifestyle. If you’re too hard on yourself on weekdays and splurge on weekends, your mind and body are not trained to behave in moderation. Overeating usually results as a way to cope with burnout from overtraining and stressors.

“To achieve my training goals, I will exercise every day no matter what.” Recovery is vital to training. After a hard workout, allow at least a day or two of rest in a week so your body can take some time to recharge. This will make your performance stronger, better, and you can avoid injuries and burnout.

“Walking is not an effective form of exercise for weight control.” Walking helps you burn extra calories. It can be a more effective form of exercise in weight control and fitness improvement if you do it continuously and at a faster pace that increases your heart rate. Walking is especially beneficial for sedentary people who are jumpstarting an active lifestyle.

“Since I did more than an hour of cardio today, I can reward myself with the allyou-can-eat buffet.” Exercise does not give you a free pass to eat whatever you want. If your goals are to control your weight and improve your performance, then this calls for more effort in disciplining yourself when it comes to eating. A 1,500-calorie pizza and pasta meal will negate the 500-calories you burned running for more than an hour on the treadmill.

The Salomon X-Trail Run series is one of the most anticipated trail running events in the Asia-Pacific region, having been held in the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, and Taiwan, attracting numerous participants, from newbies to hardcore Salomon fans. This year’s Salomon Xtrail Pilipinas took place at Anvaya Cove, in Morong, Bataan developed by Ayala Land Premier. New trail routes were created exclusively for the event such as trail sections overlooking the cove that were steep and technical, with sharp and loose rocks, roots, and thick foliage. Nearly 1,500 outdoor enthusiasts and trail runners ran through the paths, hills, mountains of Bataan and Zambales, and its lush valleys surrounding Anvaya. With the slogan “Outrun the road, outlast the trail”, the physically-taxing yet gratifying competition was divided into the 32k, 24k, 12k, and 6k categories. Those who signed up for the 32k were the earliest to kick off the run at 5 a.m. and were given up to seven hours to complete the challenge. The 24k contenders, with a five-hour cutoff, followed. The 32k and 24k categories were also classified as mountain runs as they simulated ascents of skyrunning races. Participants in these gruelling categories were mainly experienced and adventurous trail runners. Members of the 12k league, who were allowed to beat the trail’s trials up to 2.5 hours, had their turn at 7 a.m. The 6k runners started thumping the trails at 7:30 a.m. with a N TO VIE W ICO 1.5-hour cutoff.

DECEMBER 6, 2015 QUIRINO GRANDSTAND In the 2nd half of 2015, runners can look forward to two races and help give back to the less privileged, thanks to the local milk tea brand Affinitea. Affinitea brings Raise D’ Roof on July 7 and and Brown Race Marathon on December 6. Raise D’ Roof now on its second year with 3k,5k, 10, 16k, and 21k categories., carries the theme “More than Medals.” Proceeds of this event will go to the He Cares Foundation, a nonprofit organization assisting street children in Metro Manila. The Brown Race Marathon on December 6, inspired by the concept of “Makabayan” aims to create awareness about the identity and origin of the Filipino race. This year’s beneficiary will be Aralpinoy.org Inc. To register and find out more details, visit: www.affinitearace.com.

1ST SOUTH LUZON 240KM (SL240) ENDURANCE CHALLENGE 2015

Outdoor aficionados and Bonifacio Global City mall goers were treated to a packed two days of activities that whetted the crowd’s desire for the great outdoors at this year’s Outdoor Festival organized by Recreational Outdoor Exchange (R.O.X.), Southeast Asia’s current largest outdoor sports and recreation store. As the culminating event of R.O.X.’s “Get Outside” campaign, the festival was packed with the best reasons to spend your days outdoors such as jaw-dropping competitions. There was the Zero Gravity Bouldering Competition, a battle among the country’s top bouldering champions to test their vertical limits. Another crowd-pleaser was Mountain Hardwear’s “The Last Man Standing,” a game of endurance and willpower where contestants stood on three-foot pole under the heat for eight hours. Other activities were inspiring outdoor talks such as those given by professional photographer Winston Baltasar on how to get adventure’s good angles, Wanderlass blog’s Liliane Cobiao on “The Good Habits of Globetrotting”, and UP Mountaineers’ Dennis Lopez on respecting the outdoors while conquering it.

2015 SOUTHEAST ASIAN GAMES JUNE 5-16, 2015 SINGAPORE Over 600 athletes and sporting officials make up the Philippine contingent that will battle it out in 35 out of 36 sports scheduled for the 28th Southeast Asian Games in Singapore from June 5-16. The Philippines eyes a decent finish in this edition of SEA Games after placing 7th in 2013, its lowest ranking since joining the biennial event. “The goal is to improve our finish in 2013 in Myanmar—whether it’s sixth, fifth, fourth, or higher,” says Julian Camacho, chef-de-mission of the Philippine Olympic Committee. At the send-off party held last May 27 for the National Athletics team, Philip Ella Juico, president of Philippine Athletics Track and Field Association (PATAFA) expressed confidence that our country’s athletics team will take home not less than eight gold medals. The team, composed of 36 athletes, will compete in all track and field events except the walkathon. Among the gold medal hopefuls cited by Juico were Eric Cray (400m hurdles), Jesson Ramil Cid (decathlon), Archand Bagsit (400m), Christopher Ulboc (steeplechase, 4x400m men’s relay), Henry Dagmil (men’s long jump), Marestella Torres (women’s long jump), and Caleb Stuart (discus throw, shot put, hammer throw). VELOCI Time and L Timestudio sponsored the send-off party held at the Marriott Hotel Manila.
