- 2:29Dani already made the preamble to the invitation for today' s guest. So
- 2:35today' s guest is Dr. Jesus Miranda. How welcome you are,
- 2:40all right. Thank you very much, thank you very much for inviting me,
- 2:45thank you very much to the people who are listening to us. And
- 2:46how good to participate today and be able to share some of my professional experience
- 2:53and also sports. Of course we invite you because of course you' re
- 3:00a doctor for the sports portologist. So you understand us? You understand how
- 3:02stubborn we have in some moments, and because you' re going to clarify
- 3:09many things and you' re going to give us a lot of information that
- 3:13I know that both those who listen to us see us and we ourselves will
- 3:15serve. Yes, yes, Daniel Camilo e, thank you very much.
- 3:20It is indeed very valuable to be here and to share, as I say
- 3:23to you, a little of those emotions that cross and that, sometimes,
- 3:28even if we have a knowledge, the emotions of career, the social pressure
- 3:34mixes there and we must do one of reaching a point of equilibrium to avoid
- 3:39injury, as you mention. Well, let' s base the first part
- 3:46of this talk on you telling us, who you are, how old you
- 3:52are, where you come from, what you do and how it was little
- 3:55by little that foray of yours into the perfect sport. Okay. My name
- 4:00is Jesús Miranda. I' m forty- one years old living in Medellin.
- 4:05By profession, I am a specialist in sports medicine and I also had
- 4:11a specialization in physiology and marathon training. I have also specialized in training three
- 4:15athletes with the World Triathlon, among many other things. However, more important
- 4:20than all this, is that I have been a sportsman for more than thirty
- 4:26years. Like many Colombians, before I was ten years old I started in
- 4:31football and playing football in small schools, in volleyball, including playing Chess,
- 4:39but at the age of thirteen I devoted myself to athletics. I was an
- 4:45antioquia team, I was a national champion in high jump, I was a
- 4:50national champion in jump with Garrocha and I specialized in multiple trials. Between the
- 4:54ages of three and seventeen I devoted myself to athletics practically totally. He trained
- 5:00like any high- performance sportsman in the country, three four hours a day,
- 5:05six days a week. At the age of seventeen, the University of
- 5:12Medicine began and there I made the decision to stop training and, like many,
- 5:16even of those who listen to us here, during college, I spent
- 5:23a sedentary life between seventeen and about twenty- eight years. Imagine 28 years.
- 5:32I worked out just to be fine, just as for the maintenance of
- 5:40the I started specialization in sports medicine when I was twenty- six. Between
- 5:44the ages of twenty- six and twenty- eight, I am a sports
- 5:47doctor at the University of Antioquia and while I was a sports doctor, I
- 5:54did not practice, I could not train, I did not have the time.
- 5:55However, when I finished my specialization, I was reunited with the sport.
- 5:59I ran again and inside that already visualization of what I wanted to do.
- 6:04I ran into the triathlon. That was about thirteen years ago, and
- 6:09from that moment on, I was passionate about the triathlon. I started between
- 6:16two thousand thirteen and two thousand eighteen. I practiced triathron in all distances,
- 6:23from Print distances to Full Iron Man. I' ve run several marathons.
- 6:30However, as I have focused a lot on the Triathlon. Let' s
- 6:36say running is part of my weekly training, but I have participated mainly in
- 6:46Triathlon currently between two thousand eighteen and two thousand and this year I went down
- 6:50a bit to the competition. However, already this year I have already resumed
- 6:54as again, the level of competitive training then. But beyond all this,
- 7:00and one very interesting thing is that I' ve injured myself as many times
- 7:04as they want or also dies. But look what' s funny is a
- 7:13thousand injuries. I told them I went. I was inactive sedentary about until
- 7:16I was twenty- eight when I resumed athletics. I took it up with
- 7:24the teenager' s mind, who was in the torrent and seven years,
- 7:29seventeen years. Between the ages of twenty- eight and thirty, I had
- 7:33more than five injuries. I had a partial rupture of the achille tendon,
- 7:39I had a meniscus injury, I had a shoulder injury. I mean,
- 7:45I' ve been through it all. But you' re gonna talk about
- 7:47why that happened to me. And also already because between the two thousand thirteen
- 7:54and two thousand fourteen, and a thousand injuries, fortunately already disappeared and I
- 8:00can train not only with emotion, but with knowledge. Sure, well,
- 8:05I have several questions, because here we start to ask about that process.
- 8:11You were at school and you started, I mean, you said you started
- 8:16playing football, but how do you realize you' re good for high jump,
- 8:20well, all of a sudden for height and pitching. It was that
- 8:24you told me, no yes, yes, yes, yes, for that
- 8:28because you say well, you are a runner, you run fast, come
- 8:33run 100 no and come run 1, 500 or five zero. But how
- 8:35did you realize he' s a long jumper? Specifically, I was fortunate
- 8:41enough to meet a coach on a stake in the city where I was born.
- 8:46I grew up to the south, south of Medellin, which is called
- 8:54Hernana Tortuga. Hernán is one of the history coaches here in Colombia, and
- 9:01he has an eye on those, of those eyes of coaches who know what
- 9:07the profile is to me. I was once invited to a training there,
- 9:13to the golden track, well known by all the runners in Antioquia, to
- 9:16the golden track, and there he saw me. But I wasn' t
- 9:22the best runner. I wasn' t a resistance runner, but immediately,
- 9:26as Daniel says, my texture, I' m afraid a meter and a
- 9:31half. I' m pretty tall. I currently weigh seventy- two,
- 9:35seventy- three kilos. However, at that time, at the age of
- 9:39thirteen, I was already about one eighty and weighed fifty- six, fifty
- 9:45- seven kilos, that is, I had a very specific profile to be
- 9:50a jumper. Ok how they seemed to you The trainings to be jumper were
- 9:58very challenging at first, because, despite the height and so on, they
- 10:05needed a very technical work, a very important domain of the body. At
- 10:11first, when I was training, we were training on a dirt track,
- 10:16literally, there were two wands on the sides and we were putting on a
- 10:24rubber and there we were done. I imagine as power, a lot of
- 10:26power jobs, a lot of power jobs, jumps in drawers, a lot
- 10:33of fence work. It was a very technical job, but it was a
- 10:37very nice job. He even called me, because now he' s remembering
- 10:39a little bit about the issue of injuries. In my time of intense training
- 10:45between the three and seventeen, the injuries were very small. I mean,
- 10:48it really was a time that, although there was a high training, the
- 10:54injuries were few, but it was very chevere. It was very cool experience.
- 10:58I was like Catherin Barge' s training. In his early days I
- 11:05left the dorado en vigado to train already with the Athletics League of Antioch.
- 11:11That was between the ages of fourteen and sixteen. That' s where I
- 11:15met Kaherina Ibargüe when the Cubans arrived in Colombia. That was like the environment
- 11:22that surrounded me in my first bond with sport. And that' s where
- 11:28you represented the school or the school how they supported you. Like, because
- 11:33it' s clear there not to leave education on the side a high-
- 11:37performance leta. The most, because it' s four or five hours a
- 11:41day in practice. Yeah, well, it' s important to know that
- 11:46I' m talking about a little over twenty- five years ago. The
- 11:50support was not much and was a very variable support. Let' s say
- 11:58at school they weren' t there, they gave us spaces and time on
- 12:03the beam. I remember being supported with the tickets to go, to go
- 12:07to train the league, to the athletics league. They gave me the subway
- 12:13tickets. The subway was already out then, that was an advantage. However,
- 12:16there was no economic or nutritional support for the athletes that we were local,
- 12:22that is, that we lived in Medellín invigado, while the athletes who
- 12:26came from outside lived in the village. Even though we were of the same
- 12:31competitive level, that is, we were all anti- Ochi selection. They
- 12:35say to us they don' t give us say that was like the kind
- 12:39of support they could give us at that time and since there was no support.
- 12:46Obviously, when I finished school at the age of sixteen, my decision
- 12:50was to study college regardless of the level of sports I had. Well,
- 12:56when you left school, you did have other careers. Or medicine was always
- 13:01your priority. Camilo, look. I think the way, my way of
- 13:07studying sports medicine was always as determined. I, when I finished school,
- 13:16introduced myself to an ice texs call at that time to go to study sports
- 13:20medicine in Cuba and I was excited, motivated and I said wow. This
- 13:26is like my thing, and it turned out that because of national policies or
- 13:33the ice Tex I don' t know. The call only allowed people living
- 13:37in municipalities far from the big cities to aspire to the call. Then I
- 13:46didn' t pass, but I showed up for medicine at the University of
- 13:50Antioquia. I studied medicine and there I had a wider picture. However,
- 13:54when I went to finish the career, again appeared to me the medical lights
- 14:01of the sport and I said I will not now yes to know the specialization
- 14:07and definitely this was always my career, my profession and not only is my
- 14:11profession, but it is aligned with what I vibro, which is the physical
- 14:16movement. But when there was the possibility of going to Cuba, that was
- 14:20an undergraduate as such already sport medicine, that is, it was not medicine
- 14:24and then you specialized in Cuba sports medicine. He was an undergraduate as such.
- 14:33I don' t remember exactly how many semesters, what the duration was,
- 14:37but it was an undergraduate specifically aimed at being a sports doctor. Super
- 14:41well, that is you finished medicine and then where you specialized in medicine sports.
- 14:46At the same university I am a doctor, I am a doctor of
- 14:50the University of Antioquia, graduated in two thousand seven and a doctor specialized in
- 14:54medicine the sport of the University of Antioquia in two thousand eleven. Okay you
- 14:58say that in that span of time, when you' re studying, because
- 15:03you didn' t do high- performance competitions or training. Yeah, but
- 15:05if you did some maintenance exercises, which ones, what did you do?
- 15:09You ran, ran, but ran little, i e, really already in
- 15:16college, both undergraduate and graduate. I tried to work out a gym.
- 15:20But definitely, there is something that is very striking and I came to understand
- 15:26it just say when I returned to the sport again, and that is that
- 15:31people who have experienced competitive sports processes of training in our childhood in our adolescence,
- 15:41we can hardly adapt to a training, for example, of gym where
- 15:46we pursue some more health purposes, perhaps a little more aesthetic. I don
- 15:54' t mean that' s wrong, that' s okay, but in
- 15:56my case, for example, I didn' t enjoy it. I mean,
- 16:00I felt really empty doing exercise in a gym, I felt empty doing
- 16:07exercise as maintenance and even psychologically I felt that I didn' t enjoy it.
- 16:15I didn' t enjoy it. That' s when I finished my
- 16:18specialization. It' s very funny because when I started in the triatro,
- 16:22the triatro wasn' t so fashionable in the country. It was a rather
- 16:26competitive sport. I started to train and that really motivated me like I felt
- 16:33again the excitement of the competition, the emotion of the physical demand and at
- 16:40that time, in football raising of elbow or rather remote, that is,
- 16:47you knew the consequences of that and you didn' t do it or as
- 16:52soon. Yes, well, naturally, I' ve always been very far
- 16:56away from vices, obviously, because as a university student, as a young
- 17:00man, we' re getting closer to drinking liquor. However, it was
- 17:07a more academic environment, more of a university, but in one way or
- 17:14another, discipline. I value immensely the possibility that I had to live a
- 17:23sports workout in my teens. I even promote sports in adolescence very much,
- 17:32not with the aim of being the high- performance athlete, but because sport
- 17:36in adolescence helps us to forge values that are eternal, discipline is enduring,
- 17:42we set goals, we set goals, we organize our day, we take
- 17:51care of our body to achieve those goals. So I think those values that
- 17:59he could acquire as an equal sports teenager, they accompanied me in my college
- 18:07life and I didn' t say I had a very quiet college life.
- 18:12When you say that you start making tring well, we know that these three
- 18:18disciplines you already had, you already mastered one what happens with the other two
- 18:22you already practiced cycling naturalization. You started from scratch learning practically from scratch.
- 18:27That was very curious because I was there. I want you to visualize this
- 18:33image a little bit. Two thousand eleven was recently graduated as a sports doctor
- 18:38and stood accompanying a sporting event at the Guatape Dam six in the morning,
- 18:45a stunning cold. It was a triathlon world championship and there were the athletes
- 18:52on the pier in their neo full suits ready to get in the water and
- 18:56I couldn' t swim. I' ve never given a dam before.
- 19:00I' ve never had a road bike to triat it. He had a
- 19:04bicycle, he could ride, but he was not competitive. And I said
- 19:08one day I' m going to be triatro two thousand eleven, but swimming.
- 19:15I' ve already been a graduate professor and joined a swimming Seeder in
- 19:21college. Nothing went with the undergraduate students, because there was no way to
- 19:26find another space I got my first bike and so little by little I got
- 19:30into it. And although athletics was my base sport, as I was telling
- 19:37them right now, I was a sportsman of power, of jump, of
- 19:42technique, but I was not a sportsman of resistance. The physical capacity I
- 19:48had to develop later. So practically athletics also started from scratch. Yeah,
- 19:57yeah, yeah, it started a process of adaptation and I wasn' t
- 20:03specifically prepared for a endurance sport and that' s why I injured part of
- 20:10me of one of the reasons I had so many injuries between the ages of
- 20:15twenty- eight and thirty is because I thought I was running. I thought
- 20:19that, because I had been an athlete, I could start running longer distances
- 20:25I could start demanding myself and I didn' t know the specific training of
- 20:30a endurance athlete. Then there was one like a false thought, some false
- 20:38ideas that like no, like I was then I can still be. And
- 20:41it was not a specific training that I had to adapt, learning and allowing
- 20:48my body to adapt to the abilities I had at twenty- eight or thirty,
- 20:53but to those I had at seventeen. You said that when you'
- 20:59re in charge of maintenance, good physical activation of maintenance, like I didn
- 21:03' t fill you 100%. Maybe that' s because you weren'
- 21:07t competing against someone. And the other thing is when you get on the
- 21:11train, how much time goes on for your first competition. He does not
- 21:19enjoy the let' s say functional exercise or maintenance exercise at that time.
- 21:26In my case, because obviously I can' t generalize, but in my
- 21:30case I had a lot to do with not demanding my body in a way
- 21:38that challenged me. Right, there was no challenge, there was no goal,
- 21:42there was no planning. Even I think that many, when you listen
- 21:48to exercise to stay healthy, there are some recipes, exercise five days a
- 21:53week, thirty or more minutes, aerobic exercise strengthen, but there was no
- 21:57structure. I believe that in the absence of a structure, there is no
- 22:03planning, as in my case, the motivation was lost and even today,
- 22:08being passionate about sport, being someone who has been in sport all his life.
- 22:17If I don' t have a goal, it' s easy to
- 22:25lose the habit. If for me I don' t have a short goal,
- 22:29three months, six months, one year and it' s not a
- 22:33competitive goal, it' s a personal goal, it' s a goal
- 22:37to make a distance, it' s a goal to make a time,
- 22:41it' s a goal to regain a physical ability. I get lost then,
- 22:42that' s very important to me. And then you start the other
- 22:47question was how long it was, why would you do your first competition up
- 22:52to the content of a duathlon or something aquatlon or something like that. I
- 22:57started from one to training is triathlon, I started training all three sports.
- 23:02But there was a progression of about a year, a year and a half
- 23:07or so to start participating. My first event was a duathlon. Yeah,
- 23:17swimming and running sorry, a quatlon, a quatlon, swimming and running quatlon.
- 23:23My second event was a triathlon, but already a short distance, a
- 23:29sprint distance, and so I was in two thousand thirteen. Two thousand fourteen.
- 23:34I took two years to participate in my first standard distance triathlon event.
- 23:41It was a well- done progression, for I feel it was well-
- 23:47done for me. I' m not saying it was quick, slow cut.
- 23:49It was right for me. It was two years. My first standard
- 23:53triathlon distance was in San Andres, distance is there but I had already had
- 24:00a progressive stroke in that one called the Morgan output. Yes, there was
- 24:07the burga in challez, but the Morgan challenge is three days, Friday Saturday
- 24:10and Sunday Saturday distances print pardon, Friday distances princess or five kilometers and Sunday
- 24:18triatro a standard. I went straight to the standard distance. Let' s
- 24:23say there, well, you' re already training, you' re already
- 24:26turning. How that happens is to share that time of training with work.
- 24:33It was very interesting camel, because I trained triathlon. I was already participating
- 24:41again in races of ten kilometers half apparatus, let' s say as a
- 24:48complementary part, but in the work I was dedicated at that time I was
- 24:51already a doctor of sport. However, I accompanied as a sports doctor sports
- 24:57gym athletes these people who were starting to do physical activity, but already getting
- 25:03into the sport allowed me to start going, accompanying athletes, runners that is,
- 25:08it was a transition that allowed me to get much closer to the sport.
- 25:12Moreover, I was very curious because, being a sports doctor and training
- 25:18triathlon, I did not imagine being a doctor of sport runners and triathletes.
- 25:25So much, it wasn' t a profile that there was, because it
- 25:29wasn' t a profile that was in the middle. However, since the
- 25:30two thousand fifteen I began to accompany, to accompany athletes and that has allowed
- 25:37what we talked about from the beginning, to understand their emotions, to understand
- 25:45their language, to know the sport. Being immense in a community where we
- 25:48have to learn to articulate these things, because sometimes and I say it with
- 25:56respect, obviously, for the science that is my base, science is often
- 26:00or the guidelines the recommendations may be a little behind with respect to technological advances
- 26:08with respect to non- general, but individual experiences. So that makes me,
- 26:21as a sports doctor, start articulating much better. Or feel that I
- 26:25' m doing much better with the individuality of each athlete and what you start
- 26:30to become independent. I' ve worked on a lot of projects. I
- 26:36' ve been independent since two thousand thirteen as a sports doctor. However,
- 26:41I am conducting a number of trials. I accompany an online training program called
- 26:47Triatrol Consciousness, where I accompany triathlete cyclists through education and evaluation. I'
- 26:55ve also coached triathlete cyclist racers. I' m not currently a coach.
- 27:00I don' t run, well or if I' m a coach,
- 27:06but from a very small group of people, because my main job at the
- 27:10time is in a new project that I' ve been carrying, so,
- 27:14a new company that we have for about a year, which is Bewman,
- 27:18which is a sports laboratory that I run here in Medellin, where we do
- 27:26pre- participative evaluations, physical skills assessments to help that athlete train safely and
- 27:30who wants to improve his performance. I have two questions that seem quite interesting
- 27:36to me. Once, what is the main disadvantage that you think exists between
- 27:41a sports doctor who practices sport to one who is a sitter, because I
- 27:47think the same as I read in a publication that someone shared a fellow sports
- 27:57doctor and is that if your doctor does not practice sport, your sport revalues,
- 28:07revalues, and not because you do not know. All sports doctors have
- 28:14knowledge from the athletic base that are integral to all sports. However, knowing
- 28:22the sport goes beyond knowing the physiology, knowing the strategy, the technique of
- 28:29the sport. To know the sport is to know the emotions that are experienced
- 28:37before during a competition, to know the things that motivate us to participate.
- 28:41I mean, there are many reasons to know the sport is to have physical
- 28:48sensations, because of the weather, because of the crowd, because of everything
- 28:52there is. Then more than thinking there' s a disadvantage. I think
- 28:59that if I am a sports doctor and I practice the sport of the athletes
- 29:04I accompany or at least, I am immersed in that sport. I'
- 29:11m going to have advantages. I mean, I think that, well,
- 29:14my recommendation or my conclusion more with the sports doctors, with the colleagues whom
- 29:18I wake up to and admire, is that there are advantages if I,
- 29:25as a sports doctor, know the sport and not only from the theoretical field,
- 29:30but from the practical field. I think it' s beyond that,
- 29:33to which I would direct my answer. There are saving points. Or the
- 29:38other question that I have, because it is a doubt that arises to me
- 29:42and is the amateur sportsmen Lately, or because I don' t know if
- 29:48it comes from many years, because I have been practicing no more than two
- 29:51years of athletics. It' s when some pain comes in, they go
- 29:55to the physical or first option, second option, when the matter is more
- 29:59serious, they go to the doctor who should be the order of things.
- 30:06That question, Amilo, is very important and the reason why you go to
- 30:10one or the other many times has to be because of proximity, true,
- 30:15by ease. Even as an athlete, if I have a pain, the
- 30:21first thing I should do is tell my coach, Hey Profe, I have
- 30:26this pain, I have this upset. He' s the closest professional person
- 30:30to guide me. That coach must be in the ability to say this is
- 30:40just an overload of training. Let' s lower the load, modify or
- 30:48this is an overload, but it' s not that mild and I suggest
- 30:53if I need a diagnosis, address the sports doctor or address, in this
- 31:00case, a physical therapist who will help in the rehabilitation process. There are
- 31:07basic sports doctors, we focus on integral diagnosis, cardiovascular diagnosis, hosteomuscular diagnosis,
- 31:15and give diagnostic aids, to send exams and give guidelines and recommendations on
- 31:19how to do, for example, physiotherapy sports doctors in general. Not so,
- 31:30I say in general, because there are some who suddenly do support rehabilitation,
- 31:33but we do more of the diagnostic approach and recommendations and guidelines, it
- 31:38' s like planning. The physiotherapist accompanies the diagnosis and already accompanies the process
- 31:47of rehabilitation and therapy. So, taking up that question, I think the
- 31:55first thing is professional trainer who leads to a doctor where he sports or to
- 32:01a physical therapist and even if in case it isn' t something muscular,
- 32:08because he could also address an orthopedist or a physiotherapist. But it all depends
- 32:14a lot on what I, as a sportsman, have in hand. I
- 32:16can' t limit myself to doing a process of reducing the burden of rehabilitation
- 32:25because I don' t have a doctor. Sport at hand. True,
- 32:30most people in Colombia, in the world, are not going to have a
- 32:32sports doctor there at hand, as are the big cities. So I can
- 32:37' t tell an athlete you have a pain and you can' t train
- 32:42again. Until I see you a doctor, the sport, not the coach,
- 32:45and that' s one of my important functions, training coaches so they
- 32:51know when they really should address a doctor, the sport, a physical therapist,
- 32:54an orthopedist or another. If clas camilo, yes, super I have
- 33:02a question and it is with this commercial theme that they begin already, obviously
- 33:07the running or becoming I Running and DS Dread where they start to become fashionable
- 33:13come the brands. Obviously come on. I have these sneakers, I have
- 33:16this one and I have seen your videos and I would like to recognize or
- 33:22know more what you think of the footsteps are necessary and the shoes are necessary
- 33:27for pronator, for his opinionator or you suddenly think that, since one has
- 33:32already run all his life. That' s better to keep that technique than
- 33:37to change it. Or I don' t know, I mean. Let
- 33:37' s say that' s a good question for you and that' s
- 33:44a very good question because, as they say, there' s a traditional
- 33:49saying out there that' s not the arrow, but the Indian. And
- 33:52really, on the subject of treading, on the subject of strength, of
- 33:58foot, of stability, the most important thing is my foot and not footwear.
- 34:02Okay, that' s a weak foot, for the best shoes I
- 34:12have, it' s not gonna work. The most important thing as an
- 34:19athlete is to know my foot, to take care of my foot, to
- 34:23strengthen the foot the key. Within all this there is a book that everyone
- 34:27surely knows, or many here know that it is born to run. That
- 34:31was one of the books that backed me up what I learned and I didn
- 34:37' t learn it at the university, which I learned running on a dirt
- 34:40track. As I told them right now, the most important thing was to
- 34:46strengthen the foot. If I have a strong foot even, that should be
- 34:51my main goal when it comes to starting to run. It is to strengthen
- 34:57my independent foot if it is pronator, if it is supine. If I
- 35:00have a strong foot, I' ll have stability on my foot so I
- 35:04can run. That' s the first thing. The shoes. Footwear plays
- 35:09a very important role and is to protect us. But if the shoe doesn
- 35:14' t have the base element, which is the right size, I always
- 35:21tell you in my office the right size an inch the size of my fingers.
- 35:27Let' s say if this is the template that my fingers are,
- 35:30provided that at least one or one five centimeters of space, because most of
- 35:36the runners that I evaluate when if it' s on the template and this
- 35:40is the footwear, the fingers are collected. For those who are listening to
- 35:44us, imagine as if your fingers are not stretched out, but bent.
- 35:51Most runners wear shoes with the So, that makes the support not efficient,
- 35:54that the fingers suffer Then, first measure, have adequate size the footwear,
- 36:01second measure, have a strong foot. Third measure, have a training plan
- 36:09and have some goals. Sports shoes are designed for certain, to make times.
- 36:20Sport shoes are designed for special racing rhythms. So, if I'
- 36:25m starting to run, I can' t let myself be influenced. From
- 36:28what the brand tells me, so tell me the influencer, I' m
- 36:30going to buy some shoes with tight rigid plates. When I have a weak
- 36:37foot, then. In short, for this question, I agree with the
- 36:45design of footwear, I agree with the technology applied to sports shoes, the
- 36:50value or respect is made for a certain level of athletes, but to start,
- 36:55to start as an athlete, my priority is my foot. Second comes
- 37:01the shoes, but first is my foot before the shoes. Super good.
- 37:07When you start running, the first recommendation you get is to go to the
- 37:13sports doctor for a few tests, one test to see if you can run
- 37:17good. That as first recommendation, I want to ask after the first time,
- 37:24every time it is advisable to go to the sports doctor. All right,
- 37:30that' s what you' re saying. That evaluation is a different
- 37:34evaluation, different from the evaluation or consultation for injury, I mean I hurt
- 37:40myself in the ankle foot. That' s a very specific consultation related to
- 37:49what my injury is, what the cause was, and let' s start
- 37:52a process of therapy, rehabilitation, and so on. Right, this consult
- 37:58you don' t tell me. That' s what I in sport medicine
- 38:00or worldwide is called pre- participative evaluation or EPP. It' s an
- 38:08evaluation that seeks to rule out causes of sudden death. It is an evaluation
- 38:14that seeks to determine, as an athlete, what probability or risk I have
- 38:19of being injured. It is an evaluation that seeks to know how are all
- 38:22my physical abilities, strength, flexibility, posture and, from there, to
- 38:28give guidelines and recommendations. It' s a very curious evaluation, because most
- 38:34athletes I' ve met, I' ve asked, sometimes they' re
- 38:38afraid to go to that evaluation because they don' t want to be dismissed,
- 38:44told hey, you' re not fit and, on the contrary,
- 38:46it' s not an evaluation to rule out. It' s an evaluation
- 38:52to tell you look, even though you have this, this and this condition.
- 38:57Let' s make these modifications so you can say fruit from your training.
- 39:00So pre- participative evaluation. Ideally, I should go every year as
- 39:07an athlete, I should have an evaluation every year. It is a very
- 39:10important evaluation because it allows us to really plan my goals. Yes, then,
- 39:19every year, I should have a pre- participatory evaluation, injury evaluation.
- 39:24Consultation for injuries, because when I am injured, yes, that difference
- 39:30between a pre- participative evaluation is clear. In the case let' s
- 39:39say that we' ve already talked to another author gesture here on the podcast,
- 39:43but I think it would be interesting to tell you that. In what
- 39:45case you would tell an athlete changes that sport because you don' t,
- 39:51or we' ve already told myself here, you can' t, you
- 39:54can' t keep running. Nobody goes, Daniel. That' s one
- 40:00of the most difficult questions or answers that I, as a doctor, have
- 40:04had to give sport, because I think that no doctor to sport likes to
- 40:09tell a sportsman you can' t run? You shouldn' t run a
- 40:16runner, for example, tell him you can' t run. That'
- 40:21s news I wouldn' t want to give, but I have to,
- 40:24right, I have to do it when it' s appropriate. In the
- 40:29high performance athlete there are situations, for example, when there is significant,
- 40:37severe, true joint damage, when there is an injury that I say and
- 40:44more than tell you you can' t, I tell you you shouldn'
- 40:47t mean. You have an osteoarthritis in your hip, you have a damage
- 40:51to your knee that if you keep running, you will get injured more,
- 40:55you will have a very serious process, but it is your decision. Right.
- 41:00It is always very important to know that sports doctors are not to ban,
- 41:05but to suggest. So, when there is severe damage to the knee,
- 41:09to the hip, when there are cardiovascular diseases that prevent me from being
- 41:16at the level of high performance. So prohibitions or restrictions are given more in
- 41:22high performance. When we find severe injuries in amateur sportsman, amateur sportsman and
- 41:28paralympic sport, things change. We see paralympic athletes with chain problems, knee
- 41:37problems and so they' re running and so they' re swimming, so
- 41:39they' re riding a bike. So it' s important to know that,
- 41:44even though I have certain limitations on my mobility for x hears health situation,
- 41:53I can make modifications in my level of effort, in level of my
- 41:59training load to be able to continue enjoying the sport. So it' s
- 42:04really weird to have to tell an amateur sportsman. You can' t run.
- 42:08We usually tell them for x time, for two months, three months,
- 42:15six months. Let' s stop running, let' s change the
- 42:20sport. But it is more a non- total restriction, but an exact
- 42:28time restriction. We know if we' ve heard that in some marathons around
- 42:34the world they ask for a medical certificate to enter the marathon. Let'
- 42:38s say good there. Unfortunately, we' re here in Colombia and there
- 42:42' s a lot of people who skip that step and try to fake that.
- 42:45What is the risk of not taking the test to run a perfect marata.
- 42:52That certificate is called or called here in Latin America, the physical fit.
- 43:00It is part of the report given in that evaluation that told them right
- 43:04now of the pre- participative evaluation you make an annual evaluation and at any
- 43:09time you can ask your sports doctor to give you or send you a certificate
- 43:14of that pre- participative evaluation. It' s an evaluation that determines your
- 43:21health condition is adequate. It doesn' t say how well trained you are
- 43:25or how long you' re going to be true. It' s a
- 43:29physical health certificate. That is a certificate that is important for organizations, for
- 43:37those who organize the event to know that their athletes are at least well trained.
- 43:44It is a certificate that, although it is not obligatory, because I
- 43:49must do it very thoroughly and say man, I am well prepared. But
- 43:52if the organization doesn' t require that certificate, then you should take it
- 43:58as part of my training process, my preparation, and be at ease with
- 44:04the risks. The risks are not because you don' t have or have
- 44:08the certificate. I mean, we all know that the risks of running,
- 44:13of participating in a sporting event are there or there. I can have the
- 44:19certificate. Daniel Camilo can leave my office, from the evaluation eight days later
- 44:25go run a marathon and suffer an injury and get a serious event. And
- 44:30that doesn' t mean the doctor was wrong. It also means the risks
- 44:37of sports participation in an event like a marathon. Even if I participate in
- 44:45a recreational way, it is a high physical demand event that has its risks
- 44:50and this is very important. It is a message that I share very much
- 44:52with the people I accompany and it is I am a recreational amateur runner.
- 44:59But participate in a half marathon. In a marathon it is an event of
- 45:04high physical demand that is not recreational. That is because if an elite watchman
- 45:08makes forty- two in his demand and in his country, in his rhythm,
- 45:13because we too are going to make our own forty- two to our
- 45:16demand, our own and our own rhythms. It doesn' t mean that
- 45:21because that' s amateur, then I' m going to get shorter.
- 45:23The kilometers are not the same kilometers and the same country that I will endure,
- 45:29so they will go. The athlete of the liter no de lei goes
- 45:32to Tope and I also go to my topi and the risks both cardiovascular,
- 45:38hosteomuscular, do not decrease because I passed from taking two hours, two and
- 45:44a half hours, Three hours, three and a half hours and who has
- 45:47the one five hours ago the marathon, then has less risks. On the
- 45:52contrary, there are risks that the more you delay me. I, in
- 45:55a marathon I have more risks, I have more dehydration, I have more
- 46:02risk of overload, I have more risk of heat stroke. Yeah, they
- 46:07' re good at me. Now that we' re dealing with that issue
- 46:13of risks, we also wanted to ask you what, as I tell you,
- 46:16it can be for the body to make two marathons in less than ten
- 46:20days. That is a very interesting topic, because in the world there are,
- 46:28because there are challenges even of runners who have made forty- two marathons
- 46:32for forty- two days. True, and that kind and even more then
- 46:38everything depends on preparation, planning. Right, I' ve got a sportsman
- 46:49I' m with who, for example, did Boston last weekend and is
- 46:54running London. Yes, but with two very different objectives. Today they'
- 47:00re different. You make a specific career, say London, London is your
- 47:09career. It' s the race we call Type A, it' s
- 47:15the race he' s getting ready for and you. It was an event,
- 47:20a training participation, a one- week participation, that is, at
- 47:27a low load. Yes, at a low level in London. He'
- 47:31s got a time target. I had one. He has a goal of
- 47:36staying his three hours in Boston, has a goal of participating, doing a
- 47:42low intensity aerobic background and did three hours quietly fifty. They' re two
- 47:50different targets. It' s the variation is very different. If me and
- 47:53that and that is no longer a recommendation. Without my 100% in a
- 47:59barathon it' s three hours. I' m not going to go do
- 48:05my 100% in Boston and the next week I' m going to look
- 48:08for my 100% in London. Uh- huh It' s a load
- 48:16game. It' s very important that, but I can' t think,
- 48:22as a runner, that I' m not going to wear myself out,
- 48:24that I' m not going to overload myself. It should be a
- 48:27highly planned topic, very very well planned to avoid injury or decrease the risk
- 48:35of injury. But that' s exactly it. That' s a risk
- 48:38of injury. There' s no cardiovascular risk all of a sudden, because
- 48:44I don' t know how much you can talk about a burden on the
- 48:47respiratory issue, I haven' t heard it, but there can' t
- 48:52be a cardiovascular risk that can get at risk, because life itself, because
- 48:55an injury one says well, I hurt as you say an athlete hobbies for
- 49:00two three months and again I' m going to start and do the same
- 49:02the other year. There' s a risk of death. There, suddenly
- 49:06on a marathon, followed by one each month one, suddenly two months later
- 49:12another marathon and two months later another marathon. I mean, with the chaos
- 49:15with this racing fever there is influence. That question too, Daniel, is
- 49:23very important, because the cardiovascular risk is not because of the distance I run
- 49:30or how long I take. No. Cardiovascular risk is associated with physical demand.
- 49:38Yeah, and I can have a cardiovascular event being very well trained and
- 49:49participating x days, even if it' s a single race or I can
- 49:53have a cardiovascular risk in a training that' s short. That is,
- 49:58cardiovascular risk is obviously in mass events, where there is the highest physical requirement,
- 50:04I can present greater risk, but not necessarily. It is associated as
- 50:10the weekly training volume or the weekly training load. It is an event associated
- 50:16with physical effort as such. It' s different and that' s good,
- 50:24because there' s always a lot of fabric to cut. It'
- 50:27s different when I have a chronic dehydration process, right, I don'
- 50:30t hydrate, I don' t recover and I leave and then I demand
- 50:35dehydration. That' s already other issues, but it' s not about
- 50:39garlic secondary. I don' t know. I' d like to ask
- 50:45a question. Then he was involved in a tragic event. It was a
- 50:52very short time ago. I don' t know, if you' d
- 50:55like to tell us the experience of that day and suddenly, from your medical
- 51:00perception, suddenly, what' s the cause. I don' t know.
- 51:04Unfortunately, I think that this is one of the situations that neither as
- 51:07a sportsman nor as a sports doctor want to witness, we want to live,
- 51:15we want to experience and even though hearing it someone died in x hears
- 51:24career is hard, it is strong to live it. Witnessing her is something
- 51:29else. Determining the causes is not an exercise. Let' s just say
- 51:35we can get in right now and not even start here like we' re
- 51:39going to figure out exactly in this case that happened. I believe that in
- 51:42the face of that already every individual is important to make an assessment of whether
- 51:45I am well trained, of whether I am not well trained, of whether
- 51:50I have any risk, of whether or not I have done the participatory prepa
- 51:53evaluation, if I have an electrocardiogram. I believe that each of the runners
- 51:55who are here the invitation is var We are going to do what needs to
- 52:00be done from the point of view of physical preparation. That' s the
- 52:05first thing. With regard to my personal experience, I think that although we
- 52:14still lack a great deal of capacity to react to these kinds of events,
- 52:22in our massive events, to be there, to have the equipment, to
- 52:27have the medical equipment, to have a defibrillator in less than three minutes at
- 52:32the site where there is a cardiocardiorespiratory arrest, to have an ambulance and a
- 52:37care team. We' ve improved, and that wasn' t a doctor
- 52:44at the event. I was a spectator who was accompanying a group of athletes.
- 52:49When I arrived, I activated, then, like the whole care protocol,
- 52:54in less than a minute another external person the organization, but it was
- 53:01because it was the one that was there next to me and reacted. He
- 53:04brought me the defibrillator in less than a minute and I did the process of
- 53:09trying to do the reanimation process and about three minutes already the athlete was between
- 53:15the ambulance transport. That was my experience. What happened before, what happened
- 53:22after. Let' s just say it' s another topic. But from
- 53:24my experience, I think we need event organizers to always keep in mind that
- 53:31this can happen and to improve this, because there are events that don'
- 53:37t count. There are events, say someone in Colombia, every weekend there
- 53:42is a race and there are massive races, big ones that have a better
- 53:51positioning and that have already had the experience of this type of catastrophes. There
- 53:57are others that don' t and the more, that is me in this,
- 54:01sometimes I won' t necessarily have all the experience, the logistics.
- 54:05So that' s kind of, like, a summary of that. Well,
- 54:12we' re running out of time. I think to close a little,
- 54:15this talk. I don' t know if you want to give people
- 54:21who are listening to recommendations for people who are starting to run, because finally
- 54:24this podcast is focused on people who are starting to run. From scratch,
- 54:28I don' t know if you can help us with a recommendation. Yeah,
- 54:30sure, sure, I think it' s fundamental. The first thing
- 54:35is that running is a wonderful one. Running is, of course, our
- 54:39sport, that is, running. Everything that has to do with running,
- 54:43throwing, receiving the body is designed for that and as Ahoritica mentioned in the
- 54:49suggested book born to run. We' re made to run and we'
- 54:55re born to run. What happens is that, as happened to me,
- 54:58as happens to many of the people who listen to us for work, for
- 55:02study, for different situations, we stop running as children and want to run
- 55:12as adults again. And when we want to run again, we want to
- 55:19do it with the naturalness that is born to us. But, unfortunately,
- 55:23we lose all those physical, innate abilities, and that is why we have
- 55:30to start over. So, starting from that concept that we have to reac
- 55:35Although we were born to run, we have to relearn to run, it
- 55:39' s important. One, the strongest muscles must be our feet, the
- 55:46toes, that is, these fingers must have that immense ability to receive support,
- 55:51to cushion and to push. So, one has to strengthen one'
- 56:00s feet, and that doesn' t have to wait to go to the
- 56:02gym. That cannot be strengthened with my own weight, but it is to
- 56:07make it aware that that is fundamental. That helps us prevent injuries. Or
- 56:13one two. In this world that we live from urgency, from acceleration,
- 56:19from wanting everything immediately, we have to have a progression, that is,
- 56:24because everyone runs marathons. I can' t write to all the marathons they
- 56:30want in the year or start running and the first year already delay marathons.
- 56:36You don' t have to have a progression and you have to be respectful
- 56:40of your body. If I stop running a week, a week, it
- 56:45' s more, I stop running three four days. I' m not
- 56:47going back with more than 30 minutes. I never return with fifteen twenty minutes
- 56:54of jogging soft return, progressive return. Then fundamental in everything to have a
- 57:01proper progression so that our body adapts, is facilitated. Thirdly, stretching for
- 57:10me, but more than stretching is consenting to the foot. That is the
- 57:16foot, you have to allow it, you have to massage it, you
- 57:22have to move it, you have to stretch it true, because it is
- 57:27that the load that I give to my skin after running is very high and
- 57:30there must be a load and there must be a recovery. The difference between
- 57:34the Kenyans of many high- performance athletes is that they train and recover.
- 57:43We as amateur athletes or sportsmen of it, and we must keep in mind
- 57:47that recovery is just as important as training. So, all those fondnesses for
- 57:54the foot are fundamental. Fourth, and there is and if I strengthen,
- 58:00if I consent my foot and so on, if I make a good recovery,
- 58:07I can start there to take care as well of the right footwear and
- 58:10not the footwear thinking about the brand. It' s the shoes that help
- 58:15me take care of my foot. I didn' t have shoes to help
- 58:16me run faster. It' s the shoes that help me take care of
- 58:21my foot. There' s a joke, but I don' t know
- 58:25if in Bogotá, too, the same thing happened to you. He came
- 58:28to me here in Antioquia, and they always told us to be quiet.
- 58:31Put on those tight shoes, let the shoes give in, the shoes make
- 58:39that wide. Well, no, the shoes don' t stretch. What
- 58:45fits is my foot, my foot shrinks, you see the joints, my
- 58:50foot ends up suffering. Then think of a shoe, not to run faster,
- 58:55but to run better and fundamental, to plan, to plan, that
- 59:02is, to run them. Running is natural, running is recreational, running
- 59:07the physiological. But if I want to set a goal of running a half
- 59:12marathon, a marathon plan it with a coach, do a weekly training structure,
- 59:20distribute the loads well enjoy it, but don' t run crazy because
- 59:27I' m going to, because I see stories of people who will run
- 59:32twenty- one kilometers in three weeks. Then every weekend I go out and
- 59:35run twenty- one. Planning needs to be structured. Right, it'
- 59:40s easy. It is then easy to do so as a recommendation. That
- 59:44' s it. And finally, I think it' s clear they trust
- 59:47their coach. Have a coach, I mean, who knows, not just
- 59:52who knows him. Set up a training plan with a coach. That'
