| contents | ANTHROPOMETRIC AND NUTRITIONAL PROFILE OF MALE MOUNTAIN BIKERS Luciana Rossi Viviany Karine Cipriano Gagliotti Candelária Patrícia da Silva Gomes Salud cycling food intake Anthropometry body composition nutritional assessment Off-road cycling or mountain biking (MTB), the cross-country modality (XC), is an Olympic sport that physiologically requires high strength, endurance and aerobic capacity. However, little is known about the nutritional and anthropometric profile of practitioners of this modality. Purpose: To characterize the nutritional and anthropometric profile of male practitioners of off-road cycling (cross-country). Methods: Twelve male mountain bikers, aged 31.2 ± 6.2 years, were evaluated based on anthropometric measures, fat percentage, anamnesis, food intake and total energy expenditure (TEE), assessed to determine the adequacy of macro and micronutrient intake. Body composition was satisfactory and consistent with the adequate levels for health and performance. Dietary intake was normocaloric and the intake of carbohydrates was 54.4 ± 7.9%, proteins 17.3 ± 3.6%, lipids 28.3 ± 7.3%, and fiber 24.6 ± 10.7 g. Micronutrients were adequate: 91.8%, 169.5%, 67.3% for vitamins A, C and E, respectively, and 37.2% for iron. The food intake of mountain bikers is adequate for their TEE but should be balanced to enhance efficiency. 2010 artículo científico 1981-6324 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=93021660005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=930 Brazilian Journal of Biomotricity application/pdf Universidade Iguaçu Brazilian Journal of Biomotricity (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.4 |
