  • How Much MAP Do I Need?


    Dear Dr. Minkoff,
    Hi. I have begun counting how many grams of protein I eat each day. How do I figure my MAP into that equation? If I understand correctly most or all of my protein should be from meat/eggs. Whey, soy, "protein bars" or "shakes" are not as good. Are these other sources a waste of $ and calories? Should I stick w/ meat/fish/poultry/eggs & MAP? Thanks so much for your help. J

    Dear J,
    We have a calculator coming to the site soon to help people do this. It's not that whey, soy, protein bars and shakes are bad, it's just that as protein sources, the quality is low. If you want other calories for energy or non protein nutrients, they're fine. But for protein here is the basic idea of how to calculate it.


    Dave Scott Q and A Video


    Dave Scott and Dr. David Minkoff discuss running mechanics and training for triathlon at St. Anthony's IronMan in St. Pete Florida.


    From Cherie Gruenfeld Iron Man Age group Champion


    I did Vineman 70.3 last weekend. I won and set a new course record. The most gratifying thing is that I did it in 5:43 - a min. faster than 2008 and it was considerably hotter this year. At my age (65), to race faster than a year ago I consider to be a major success!

    Thanks for all your support. MAP is the best!


    Don't Lose It On the Run


    by Cherie Gruenfeld

    Last month MAP team member Kevin Moats wrote an article, Running Well Off the Bike. In it he gave some very constructive suggestions for workouts you can do to help in this quest. I agree wholeheartedly with everything Kevin wrote. And, since I think it's such an important issue for a long distance triathlete, I'd like to add to Kevin's thoughts.

    First, a couple of observations:

    HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT WITHOUT LOSING MUSCLE MASS

    By Luis Alvarez

    As with the rest of the world, Mexico is also is being hit by the economic crisis. As some of you may know, I am in the auto industry and it has been very intense, even to the point of critical.

    I think many of us have experienced the need to save our jobs, businesses and family income, and this has taken priority over exercising, training and competition. Unfortunately, I have found myself saddle sore from being tied to my office chair instead of my bike seat.
