Exercise & Sports Nutrition HEAL 333-02 Spring, 2016 INSTRUCTOR: Dr. Wes Dudgeon Email: dudgeonw@cofc.edu Phone: 843.953.6538 Office: Silcox 214 Office Hours: Monday & Wednesday: 3:00-4:00, Tuesday: 9:00-10:00 * Please email me (rather than phone) if you would like to set up a meeting time outside scheduled office hours COURSE MEETING: Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 1:00-1:50: Johnson - Room 206 COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course addresses the main aspects of nutrition as related to exercise and physical performance. Emphasis will be placed on the energy systems in exercise, components of nutrients, assessment of nutritional needs and diet modification for physically active individuals. * Prerequisite : BIOL 201 REQUIRED TEXTBOOKS: Sport Nutrition: An Introduction to Energy Production and Performance, 2 nd ed. Jeukendrup & Gleeson ISBN: 978-0-7360-7962-4 * The textbook is required for this course (used is fine). While I will not cover everything in the book during my lectures, many exam questions will come from book content. COURSE OBJECTIVES The purpose of this course is to acquaint students with various pathways of ATP production, discuss the impact on nutrition and training and finally identify the most commonly used sports supplements and how they impact athletic performance. STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES: - Students will display knowledge of the basics of aerobic and anaerobic metabolism, ergogenic aids, body composition and macronutrients with satisfactory completion of tests and quizzes. - Written evaluation will be used to assess student s ability to apply nutritional techniques to improve athletic performance.
Dudgeon HEAL 333 Spring 2016 2 - Students will show the ability to apply sport and exercise nutrition principles to different sport and populations with successful completion of the informational pamphlet assignment and the final presentation. - Satisfactory completion of the dietary analysis assignment will demonstrates the student s ability to analyze their nutrition and apply their course knowledge to their own situations. - Students will show a comprehension for the dietary needs of endurance and speed/power athletes with successful completion of written exam questions. EVALUATION: - Exams (500): Four (4) written examinations will be given throughout the semester (The final exam will be cumulative). Knowledge will be assessed using multiple choice, matching, fill in the blank and short answer questions taken from lectures, text book materials and complimentary readings. o Make up exams If you have an excused absence for an exam, you have 1 week in which to schedule a time with the professor to take the exam outside of class. It is your responsibility to contact the professor about scheduling a time. Failure to schedule a makeup time will constitute a 0 on that exam. - Quizzes (100): There will be 8-10 short quizzes administered at the beginning of selected classes. Quizzes will not be announced, thus you are expected to come to class having read the required material, reviewed your notes from previous classes, etc. Make up quizzes will only be granted for extenuating circumstances. - Discussion Board (100): There will be discussion boards in OAKS that pertain to each of the 3 exams given during the semester. Each student is expected to view the discussion board 3 times and post at least 1 time for each exam. The nature of the discussion board is for students to post and respond to questions related to the content of the exam. - Dietary Recall/Analysis (125): This is a two-part assignment that will require you to track your diet, begin to analyze your dietary consumption and develop nutritional strategies for accomplishing specific goals. The first phase of this process is for you to record all you eat and drink (including the amount/serving size) over a 7-day period. You will then calculate your daily average caloric intake along with the average grams of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats you consumed. You will also need to keep track of your daily physical activity and, based on your resting metabolic rate and your activity, estimate your daily caloric and macronutrient needs. You will then write a short report summarizing your findings and make recommendations for how you can correct any problems in your diet (i.e. lack of diversity, excess salt, lack of vegetables, etc.). The next phase in this project is to actually adjust your diet to meet the recommendations you made from the initial assessment (if you have a perfect diet then we will figure something out!). You will conduct the same 7-day dietary recall and analysis and will again log your daily activity. You will write a short report detailing what changes you made to your diet, why, and how it impacted your overall caloric balance. Forms and a rubric will be posted on Oaks.

Dudgeon HEAL 333 Spring 2016 3 - Savvy Shopper (100): The purpose of this project is for the student to demonstrate the ability to assess the dietary needs of an athlete and then physically identify those foods that provide the needed nutrients. The uniqueness of this project is that the student must find these foods AND keep within a budget. Each student will be given a specific athlete (sport, gender, ability) and will be required to shop for 3 days worth of food (2 training days and 1 recovery day) with a budget of $11/day. The student is to write a report indicating 1) the nutritional/hydration needs of the athlete, 2) what foods they chose, 3) why thy chose those foods, 4) the cost of the foods and 5) the nutrition facts for the diet they have constructed. Finally, the student is to summarize the project discussing the ease/difficulty of finding quality, nutritious food within the campus area. A rubric has been posted on OAKS to help guide the analysis. Due: April 4 th - Presentation (75): Students will select a research paper related to nutrition and performance and design a creative presentation using VoiceThread, PowToon, imovie, Kalutura, etc. All presentations will be shown to the class and awards (i.e. bonus points) will be given for most creative, best content, most out of the box, etc. A rubric and details for this assignment have been posted on Oaks. Presentations: April 13 th, 15 th, 18th, 20 th ATTENDANCE Students are expected to attend each class, and be prompt.

If extenuating circumstances (i.e. family emergency, severe illness, etc.) prevent you from attending class, please notify the instructor PRIOR to the class. It is the responsibility of the student to contact the instructor for assistance with understanding the missed material. If a student misses more than 10% of the assigned course meetings, their letter grade will be dropped by 5 percentage points (i.e. a 90% becomes an 85%) LATE WORK POLICY All assigned work should be submitted by the due date and time. Any work submitted past this time will be subject to a 20 percent point deducted for each 24 hour period, including weekend and holiday days. Make-up will only be permitted with an excused absence.

HONOR CODE Lying, cheating, attempted cheating, and plagiarism are violations of our Honor Code that, when identified, are investigated. Each incident will be examined to determine the degree of deception involved. Incidents where the instructor determines the student s actions are related more to a misunderstanding will handled by the instructor. A written intervention designed to help prevent the student from repeating the error will be given to the student. The intervention, submitted by form and signed by both the instructor and the student, will be forwarded to the Dean of Students and placed in the student s file. Cases of suspected academic dishonesty will be reported directly by the instructor and/or others having knowledge of the incident to the Dean of Students. A student found responsible by the Honor Board for academic dishonesty will receive a XF in the course, indicating failure of the course due to academic dishonesty. This grade will appear on the student s transcript for two years after which the student may petition for the X to be expunged. The student may also be placed on disciplinary probation, suspended (temporary removal) or expelled (permanent removal) from the College by the Honor Board. Students should be aware that unauthorized collaboration--working together without permission-- is a form of cheating. Unless the instructor specifies that students can work together on an assignment, quiz and/or test, no collaboration during the completion of the assignment is permitted. Other forms of cheating include possessing or using an unauthorized study aid (which could include accessing information stored on a cell phone), copying from others exams, fabricating data, and giving unauthorized assistance. Research conducted and/or papers written for other classes cannot be used in whole or in part for any assignment in this class without obtaining prior permission from the instructor. Students can find the complete Honor Code and all related processes in the Student Handbook at http://www.cofc.edu/generaldocuments/handbook.pdf. GRADING Evaluation will be based on the total points accumulated from the exams, quizzes, and assignments. Grades will be assigned based on the following point totals: Percentage Grade Percentage Grade Percentage Grade 90% to100% = A 75% to 77% = C+ 62% to 63% = D-
