Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I am having a little trouble understanding the whole training in your correct HR zone method. After looking at several different training plans, they did not make sense because I could not get my HR low enough even though I did not feel like I was pushing myself. (Such as my last run. ~ Any slower and I would be walking.) I understand the whole 220 minus your age to determine each zone, but to train in Zone 1, my HR would have to remain around 94-113? No way. I was told I must be well above (endurance-wise) what the plans suggest (as far as HR goes) to start a plan. It doesn't make sense to me so, I decided to get some help from an outside source. My brother is the track and field coach at Robert Morris Univ. in PA. He trains all of his athletes using HR monitors. To help me out, he is going to email me an excel spreadsheet he developed. He confirmed that my last run (avg. HR was around 150) was where I need to be. In our conversation, he basically told me that my HR when doing easy tempo (strictly aerobic) should be between 135-150. He later told me about the other zones, but none going higher than 180 bpm (zone 5) for my age. I haven't received the spreadsheet yet, but will share it if anyone is interested. He has trained many world class athletes in running, but obviously not in other tri specific events, so I don't know how this will mesh with a tri specific workout, but it will be interesting to see. I like getting all different perspectives on things. I know there is a really good thread on here somewhere regarding HR Zones. I'm on my way to find that out right now. |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Pam, This is a little off-topic but I have to ask, Why is your nickname Barqhead? Is it because you like Barq's root beer or something? BTW, I tried some of the swim drills today and they seemed to really help - especially the one about realy stretching and extending my catch arm .... and that once I plunge it into the water in front of me to just glide for a second or so ... I could immediately tell that my stroke was smoother and that I was actually punching a smaller hole through the water and that I was gliding some which helped my speed some ... versus creating a lot of turbulence my just jamming my hands into the water and immediately pulling it back ...

Yay! Smooth is fast ![]() I am Barqhead because when our kids were little, it was a "nicer" way for my husband to call me a name when I did something annoying. Somehow you are a barqhead sounds better than you are a butthead. And we didn't care if a toddler went around repeating barqhead over and over. How we came up with Barq is another story. Once when my husband was cycling, a very large dog started chasing him. Of course, it was on an uphill. My husband was pedaling as fast as he could, but the dog was closing quickly. All of the sudden he heard this "Barq!" and he turned to see that the dog was getting up, shaking dirt off itself and heading back to its home. It had been so focused on chasing my husband that it didn't see a ditch in its path. So instead of ooops, we'd say Barq! And of course call each other Barqheads. Yeah, we are a little weird ![]() |

Pro ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() OK, group. We are in the final throws of 2008. It is time to look toward 2009. What are your goals for the coming year, triathlon-wise? Mine are: 1. Get down to a good racing weight (138-142) 2. Increase running volume without getting injured 3. Run a half marathon under 2 hours (1:59:59 is fine) 4. Race IMCDA to the best of my abilities 5. HAVE FUN!! I know the CDA goal is kind of vague, but there are so many unpredictable things about an ironman and this is my first try at this distance. I feel like I should be able to finish within 12-14 hours, but I'll take all 17 if needed ![]() |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Wow, seeing how I have never competed in a triathlon, I am not going to be able to be very specific about times and so forth. However, I will lay out some of my goals. 1. Of course, as most of us do, I have weight loss goals. I would like to get down to my fighting weight (lol). I started training at 257...my goal for 2009 is to get down to 185 lbs. Yeah, that's quite a bit of weight, but I am already down to about 210. 2. Complete three (3) Sprint Tris 3. Complete one (1) Olympic distance Tri 4. Complete my first Century bike ride 5. Would love to increase my running distance to at least a half marathon (without injury of course)
I know, I have some lofty goals considering this is my first official Tri season. I feel that my goals have to be this challenging to keep me focused. Edited by msfugitivehunter 2008-12-29 11:14 AM |

As part of preparing for the Oly, I want to build up till my long run is 10 miles. If the mileage goes as planned and I complete the Oly then I'm looking at running a 1/2 Marathon by Fall of 2009. I started at 313 lbs. in Jan 08, by the end of July was 248 lbs ... been hovering around that since ... so I want to re-focus on the weight loss and get down to 215 lbs. by April 26th ... my birthday. Also a part of preparing for the Oly, I want to be able to swim 1 mile non-stop, and to bike for 40 miles non-stop. ... BTW, love the story about Barq and Barqheads ... that stuff is priceless... .. |

Pro ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() For those of you that haven't completed your first tri, yet, I am giddy with excitement! This sport is soooo addictive ![]() I noticed at least 3 of us want to lose weight (me me me!!) I braved the scale yesterday and saw a very ugly number, 150.1. So now I am officially 6 pounds over my heaviest range on my race weight goal. If you have a bit more than 10 pounds to go, this next advice may not apply to you. When I was losing a lot of weight, I could cut my calories and not really notice any difference in performance as long as I fueled properly during the activity (biking and running, but mainly biking). Also, during that time, I was only training for sprint distance races, so fueling during a ride wasn't that complicated. I drank a bottle of sports drink (Cytomax, to be specific) an hour and took a gel every 45 minutes. On hot days, I would stash a bottle of Cytomax on my run course at the halfway mark. Keep in mind, my long run at that time was @8 miles. Those of us closer to goal and doing longer distances, especially HIM and up, really have to pay attention to nutrition before, during and after workouts. Before I get into a bunch of boring details that may only pertain to me, I want to recommend a couple of books, for those who are interested. Nutrition Periodization for Endurance Athletes by Bob Seebohar is a good read for those who like a scientific approach to sports nutrition. Seebohar breaks down nutrition by training cycle. He gives formulas that you can calculate for yourself in regards to the percentage of fat, carbs and protein that your body requires during the base, build, race and recovery cycles of training. Very scientific. Lots of numbers. Not exactly user-friendly. But some of you people might be into that. It was a good read with a lot of information, just hard for me to really put into action for real life. I need actual examples of how to piece together these percentages of fat, carbs and protein. Which brings me to my next book. Forever Fit by Richard S. Kattouf II. This book is simple and just gives an overview of nutrition and its importance to fitness. Kattouf is quite general because he covers not only endurance athletes, but folks just trying to start a workout plan to improve their fitness levels. He even outlines a strength training plan. I like this book because it gives loads of examples as far as meals, snacks and even the timing of meals and snacks. I may like this one a bit better as well because I attended one of Dr. Kattouf's nutrition seminars and got to sample food and listen to some of his clients' experiences. He is local to my area and he and his wife are world-class duathletes. So if y'all have any questions or thoughts on nutrition, let's have that be the topic du jour. Of course, questions and thoughts on any subject are always welcome. Happy Tuesday. Gotta go run now ![]() Edited by barqhead 2008-12-30 7:41 AM |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Barq, I am looking for some very specific information regarding nutrition, but I think I have the basic knowledge as far as percentages of fat, carbs and protein. Additionally, because I am still in the Sprint stage I haven't fretted a whole lot about it because the length of training and races haven't really required me to plan for the "long haul". I have restricted my calories quite a bit, my RMR is 2250 calories per day, I subtracted 500 per day. That would put me losing roughly a pound a week, with no activity. Then I throw in my workouts and the pounds are falling off. I pay specific attention to the quality of the calories I eat, trying to get the most bang for my buck. The higher the quality the more food I get for less calories. (Lean protein/whole grains/lots of green veggies/and low fat dairy). I also try to save the bulk of my carbs for pre and post workout for fuel and recovery. My specific questions that I have relate to restriting calories too much and sacrificing muscle at the expense of trying to lose weight. I have on occasion smelled ammonia in my sweat and that worries me, as I don't want to lose any muscle mass. ANy suggestions on which book can help me fine tune my restricted calorie diet to both lose weight and retain my muscle mass? Funny note- In 4 months I have not had one single cheat day, I am living on will power...lol. Well, the other night my daughter and I went out for pizza, a well deserved break. I left the pizza place feeling like I was o drugs....I was high as a kite! I can only guess that it was the rush of insulin and/or other reactions from the calories and carbs...but man it feel good. Then of course, the guilt! lol |

Then of course, the guilt! lol Since you have such a good grasp on the basics, I would recommend the Seebohar book. He will give you all the formulas you could ever want to make sure you're getting the proper nutrition during all phases of training. You must have a good balance going on to not binge for 14 months. Ammonia though, is not good. A good rule of thumb is to eat a snack containing protein, fat and carbs within 30 minutes of completing a workout (1 hour duration) like a Clif bar, or a protein shake made with Whey protein, low fat milk, and fruit. Both authors recommend eating 4-6 xs per day to keep your metabolism fires stoked. And drinking lots of water. Use the color of your urine as a guide. Of course, if you use vitamin ar protein supplements, this can cause vivid-colored urine whether you are hydrated or not. Oh and as a slight digression, I encourage everyone to attend as many clinics, seminars, demonstrations, etc. as possible that are offered in your community. Even if I gain just one small nugget of new information, I can store that away in my training arsenal ![]() |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I eat 6, sometimes 7 small meals a day. I take my allotted calories and break them down so I get roughly 250-300 per meal, 6 times a day. I often throw in a chocolate protein shake with a scoop of peanut butter after my long workouts and a lean body or something after a short workout. I drink roughly .75 ounces of water per pound of bodyweight (a bodybuilding formula I was givn years ago)...that puts me drinking about 150-160 ounces or eight (8) 20 ounce bottles a day. Yeah, that's a lot! I also take GNC Mega Men Sport vitamins...which cause a severe discoloration of the urine, so it's hard to judge my hydration level by that. I can usually tell by though, by how I feel and my nail bed color. Of course, drinking the amount of water I drink, I hardly think dehydration is an issue, considering I am not in the IM or HIM distaces. I just need to fine tune my diet. I have been told the ammonia smell is beause my body was using amino acids for fuel and ammonia is a by-product of that metabolic process and is escreted through the sweat glands. Any truth to that? |

OK. From what gleaned from Seebohar's book regarding amino acid oxidation, this occurs only in the absence of adequate carbohydrate sources for energy. Here is a direct quote from the book, "While protein has made its way onto center stage as of late, it does not contribute to significantly to energy levels in an endurance event unless carbohydrate stores an intakes are low. In this case, amino oxidation has been shown to contribute up to 15% of total energy, but the contribution of amino acid oxidation decreases to 5% when overall energy intake is adequate. Following current guidelines of high carbohydrate consumption before and during an endurance event will minimize the contribution from protein as an energy source." It says nothing about an ammonia smell. You could try bumping up your carb intake prior to your workouts and see what happens. Anyone else have any great ideas or experiences? |

I have been told the ammonia smell is beause my body was using amino acids for fuel and ammonia is a by-product of that metabolic process and is escreted through the sweat glands. Any truth to that? MsFugitiveHunter ... I've also done some recent research and reading about nutrition and in particular about protein, burning muscle vs. fat, the 3 forms of energy use in the body, and the smell of ammonia in sweat. It is caused by burning proteins or amino acids ... and opposite of what one might think, you DON'T take in more protein but actually take in more carbs. I was thinking if I'm starting to burn proteicn then I'm not getting enough ... but taking in more protein just makes that much more available t burn .. The reason the protein is being burned for fuel is because you are running low on carbs (glycogen/glucose) .... so like Pam was saying ... bump up on a few more carbs. A couple of articles I read say that even though you are burning some protein and get that ammonia smell it is not likely you are actually burning up your muscle cells ... that things would have to be pretty drastic for that to start happening ... although it is possible ... but if you are eating those 6 to 7 meals a day and keeping a close eye on your calories and portions of carbs, proteins, and fats ... I seriously doubt you are lacking so much carbs and protein that you are catabolizing your muscles for fuel. But what does happen, is since you are running low on carbs and having to burn up the protein you take in ... that leaves less protein for recovery and to re-build torn down muscles from your workouts. So normally after strength training or strenous enough cardio .. there is some muscle breakdown ... and your body repairs that muscles and tries to repair it back a tad bit stronger and bigger ...(hence how body building works .... but you probably know that) ... but since you are burning up some of those proteins ... there is less to do this muscle repair and for general overall recovery. So, you will start to fatigue sooner, your recoveries will take longer, and you won't build new muscle or even fully repair torn down muscle ... so over time there will be big fatigue factor. A Nutritionist told me that if you are active, you need about 0.8 to 1.2 grams of protein per 1 Kg of body weight (or 0.8 to 1.0 grams if you are get that ammonia smell easily or you don't have a clear urine at least once a day - means Kidney's aren't filtering out all the unused protein). So someone around 100 Kgs. or 220 lbs. needs 80 to 100 grams of protein a day. Carbs needed each day is figured a little differently ... the standard most used is to calculate that 60% of your calories should come from carbs, and if for example you eat 2000 calories a day, 60% times that is 1200 calories .... then divide that by 4 because each gram of carb has 4 calories .... so 1200 calories divided by 4 grams per carb = 300 grams of carbs to take each day. And this may be about what your are doing ... by dividing up your meals into 6 or 7 a day and dividing up the calories, etc .... but what these guidelines don't take into account is the heavy exerciser ... these values are for the standard, average Joe. But, if you are doing heavy exercise and actually burning 3000 or more calories per day (vs. the 2000 that is typically used as an average daily amount for most people) .... well you have to take into account that you are actually burning 3000 or more calories ... and so you will naturally need more carbs .... for fuel .... so 3000 times 60% is 1800 calories ... divided by 4 cal. per gram a carb .... = 450 grams of carbs per day you need .... .. so that is quite a difference from 300 grams to 450 grams of carbs ... and that 150 grams of carbs that you are missing might just be the cause of the protein being burned and the ammonia smell. .. P.S. People who want to lose weight will cut calories ... including carb calories ... but for endurance type athletes .... you will need to cut less of the carb calories and cut more of the fats and proteins ... You can still cut short some of the carbs and may get the ammonia smell once in a while and faintly ... like this article was saying ... as long as you are getting some sound nutrition is not likely at all you will burn up your muscle ... so some protein burning is okay .... I've read it also helps to make most of your carbs complex carbs ... and since they digest slower and won't spike your insulin .... then you will be less likely to store fat ... which of course will help with weight loss ... so even if 2 people are taking in 300 grams of carbs, but one is mostly simple carbs and the other complex carbs .... the one taking complex carbs will lose fat easier ... ...

Pro ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() He he. You guys are great. Now in my computer room, I've got both nutrition books, Gordo's "Going Long" and the TTB so I can have them at my fingertips for reference ![]() ![]() Enough of the technical mumbo jumbo for now. It's New Year's Eve! I must get my hiney to the pool. I started my Ironman training plan yesterday. This week is bike intensive. If I am able to get in all the mileage, I will have at least 100 miles on the bike for the week. Next week is run intensive, with over 30 miles planned. I'm a bit worried about all that running mileage, but my coach and I discussed that a 3/1 build has not worked for me in the past. So we are trying a different plan. What's on your training menu? Or are you kicking it in next week when the holidays are over? Whatever it is, hope you have a great day and a safe, fun New Year's Eve ![]() |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Mythbusters...lol, I like it! I guess when you endure the challenges of a triathlon, you learn to make notes and file away the important stuff. I have learned that no matter how hard I train or how much I think I know...it seems that nutrition is probably the most overlooked aspect of most training programs. I mean, you can will or force your body to run that extra mile, or swim that extra lap...but when the body is out of fuel, it is out of fuel and no matter how strong you are or what kind of shape your in, you can not prevent the body from shutting down. Like Barq said, enough of the technical stuff for the day, it is party time! I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year! My training for today, well, I am supposed to have a 48 minute bike ride. I may or may not fit that in today, I have quite a bit on my plate today trying to figure out which party to attend....lol If I don't fit it in today, I will probably take the bike ride tomorow, followed by a short run (a brick). Hope everyone has fun tonight and makes it home safely! Edited by msfugitivehunter 2008-12-31 11:27 AM |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Hey everyone! I made it safely home from the beautiful Florida Keys. It was rough leaving the 80 degree weather and coming home to temps in the 20s. Looks like there's been lots of good discussion while I was away. All the nutrition talk makes me feel like getting my biochem book out and studying up on metabolism. But it's New Year's Eve so I think I might just go have a drink instead. Y'all have a Happy New Year! |
