THERMOREGULATION IN HYPERHYDRATED MEN DURING PHYSICAL EXERCISE

The influence of hyperhydration on thermoregulatory function was tested in 8 male volunteers. The subjects performed cycle exercise in the upright position at 52% Vo2max for 45 min in a thermoneutral (Ta = 23 degrees C) environment. The day after the control exercise the subjects were hyperhydrated with tap water (35 ml X kg-1 of [...]

HYPERHYDRATION: THERMOREGULATORY EFFECTS DURING COMPENSABLE EXERCISE-HEAT STRESS

This study examined the effects of hyperhydration on thermoregulatory responses during compensable exercise-heat stress. The general approach was to determine whether 1-h preexercise hyperhydration [29. 1 ml/kg lean body mass; with or without glycerol (1.2 g/kg lean body mass)] would improve sweating responses and reduce core temperature during exercise. During these experiments, the evaporative heat [...]

ROLE OF TASTE PREFERENCE ON FLUID INTAKE DURING AND AFTER 90 MIN OF RUNNING AT 60% VO2MAX IN THE HEAT

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between taste preference and total fluid intake during a 90-min run at 60% VO2max as well as during a 90-min period of seated recovery under hyperthermic conditions (30 degrees C, 50% RH), comparing the ad libitum intake of water and two carbohydrate-electrolyte drinks (one [...]
