INFLUENCE OF HYDRATION LEVEL AND BODY FLUIDS ON EXERCISE PERFORMANCE IN THE HEAT
During exercise in the heat, sweat output often exceeds water intake, resulting in hypohydration, which is defined as a body fluid deficit. This fluid deficit is comprised of water loss from both the intracellular and extracellular fluid compartments. Hypohydration during exercise causes a greater heat storage and reduces endurance in comparison with euhydration levels. The [...]
