Anteprima della tesi: Methods and Strategies for Weight Loss in Athletes

Weight Gain & Loss Methods and Strategies for Weight Loss in Athletes Introduction Some athletes will reduce their body weight in hopes of increasing their chances of winning. Low-body weight is desirable for at least one of three reasons: 1) appearance in aesthetic sports (diving, figure skating); 2) improved performance in events where lower body weight may increase speed; or 3) a certain weight category must be achieved.

A couple of states, most notably Wisconsin and Michigan, are leading the way with this type of approach and are seeing progress in the sport of wrestling. The programs use a nutritionist and athletic trainers at the local level as well as telelink and Internet communications to broadcast across the state. I think their ideas will be emulated in other states.
