Nutritional follow-up of a group of amateur athletes of street run
Abstract
A nutritional intervention in amateur athletes may result in an improvement in the performance of sports activities developed by them and positively alter anthropometric indicators. The study aimed to evaluate and develop a personalized diet in which it could be performed for 30 days. This is a descriptive study with a small group of street-racing amateurs (n = 4). It was evaluated the 24-hour food recall of 3 days and anthropometric evaluation to analyze the indicators of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), weight, arm circumference adequacy (CB), fat percentage (WCC), adequacy of arm circumference (WBC) and adequacy of the corrected arm muscle area (WBC). Based on the calculation of the total energy expenditure, a food plan was elaborated. Theanthropometric indicators were measured tocompare the initial measurements and after 30 days of nutritional intervention. The diet was based on a unique menu, substitution list and nutritional guidelines. The prescribed menus were classified as normocaloric, normoprotein, normoglicidic and normolipid. The results of the study were satisfactory for all athletes since there was a significant reduction of the BMI, weight and CB adequacy indicators. It is noteworthy that even without statistical significance there was a reduction in WC,% WC and adequacy of PCT, without loss of lean mass when AMBc was evaluated. It is concluded that a personalized food plan even in a short period of time yields satisfactory results.
