Nutrition Strategies for Power, Endurance, and Combined Power/Endurance Sports

 

 

 

Case Study, Chapter 11, Nutrition Strategies for Power, Endurance, and Combined Power/Endurance Sports
Jamie is a member of the USA men’s hockey team. He has made vast improvements in the last year in his
strength and conditioning regimen, and he’s seen how his hard work has paid off in his performance. He thinks
that his diet could give him even more of a boost in his performance, and he’s got a lot of questions. He is now
working with the team dietitian to improve his nutritional intake before, during, and after competition. He has
started making small changes in his diet and has seen improvements in his performance and feels much
better, so he’s motivated to continue making positive changes. He isn’t sure about his next steps and has a few
questions.
Questions:
1. Describe Jamie’s reliance on different energy systems during hockey games.
2. Are there any specific nutrition strategies Jamie can implement during the game?
3. What should be the focus of Jamie’s post-competition nutrition strategy?

Myths and Realities
Sarah has been working for a starting spot on her basketball team. She has put in more hours training than
anyone on the team. Despite her efforts, she cannot seem to break through to the starting lineup. She’s getting
desperate to make the cut. She decided to go to a local supplement store and find out about the different
supplements that are available for her. She talked to the store clerk to describe what she was looking for and
the benefits she wanted from the supplement. He gave her a list of supplements that he guaranteed would help
her. She decided to go with branched chain amino acids and started taking them the next day.
Questions:
1. Name the branched chain amino acids. Name a food high in concentration of BCAAs.
2. Sarah tested positive in a drug test for banned substances. She checked the food label before taking the
supplement, so how could this happen?
3. Summarize the scientific evidence of this supplement.

 

 

Sample Solution

 

This section provide an important data related to porosity and permeability in order to get a better understanding in reservoir and flow of different types of fluids using DHP (Digital Helium Porosimeter) and DGP (Digital Gas Porosimeter) devices also VINCI is one of the instruments that used for steady- state processes.
SCAL sectio
Special core analysis section are specialist in understanding petrophysical properties goes beyond special techniques with advance tests to help the client more in estimating their fields.
It is important to note however, that SCAl provide several services in MICP (mercury injection and capillary pressure), FRF (formation resistivity factor), and permeability of fluids especially water, CT scan, and flush cleaning using different solvents.
However, the department provides unique tests related to the above processes in order to ensure the delivery of good quality services and focus on saving costs to the customer.
Therefore, SCAL section is responsible for different fluid analysis at several stages in order to fulfil all the operational requirements and to achieve important results that optimize production and development of the fields.
Other sections
Weatherford laboratories also provide some other services behind the services provided by CCA and SCAL. These services include the basic experiments and requirement to observe several parameters such as temperature, pressure, and type of gas.

Summary of the internship

I have implemented the internship in Weatherford Company, Is one of the international oilfield services company. The company has several sections and the section where I had training is the Weatherford laboratory and is considered one of the main sections in Weatherford. The Weatherford labs are located in Ghala Industrial Estate in Oman.
The company offers internship opportunities to students in different departments for example wireline, product line which include laboratories, and finances related to their major and skills.
During the 6 weeks of the internship program, several tasks were assigned to me according to my major and practical skills in all the 3 units of laboratory department. I spend one week and several days in each unit with multi tasks given whereby some are related to my studies and others are for the purpose of gaining new experience in other fields that are semi-related.
Besides that, I was trained not only in improving my soft skills, but, also dealing with several safety situations in the workplace and management technique when dealing with
During my training a couple of approaches were assigned to me such as calculating the porosity and permeability using different instruments for example DHP (Digital Helium Porosimeter) and DGP (Digital Gas Porosimeter) also VINCI which is used for unsteady-state processes, how inject mercury to samples and calculating the bulk volume of the sample using Archimedes law, CT scan which include several software�s for making videos of core sample to analyze the fractures and how it will affect the value of porosity and permeability, Formation Resistivity Factor ( capillary pressure) (appendix 2), permeability of fluids, flush cleaning using different solvents, and finally the dean stark which is about extraction of oil and water.
