NATIONAL ATHLETIC TRAINERSA’ ASSOCIATION POSITION STATEMENT: FLUID REPLACEMENT FOR ATHLETES
OBJECTIVE: To present recommendations to optimize the fluid-replacement practices of athletes. BACKGROUND: Dehydration can compromise athletic performance and increase the risk of exertional heat injury. Athletes do not voluntarily drink sufficient water to prevent dehydration during physical activity. Drinking behavior can be modified by education, increasing accessibility, and optimizing palatability. However, excessive overdrinking should be [...]

FLUID BALANCE AND ENDURANCE EXERCISE PERFORMANCE
Dehydration alters cardiovascular, thermoregulatory, central nervous system, and metabolic functions. One or more of these alterations will degrade endurance exercise performance when dehydration exceeds 2% of body weight. These performance decrements are accentuated by heat stress. To minimize the adverse consequences of body water deficits on endurance exercise performance, it is recommended that fluid intake [...]
HYPONATREMIA IN DISTANCE RUNNERS: FLUID AND SODIUM BALANCE DURING EXERCISE
Since its first description in 1985, two opposing theories have evolved to explain the etiology of symptomatic hyponatremia of exercise. The first holds that the condition occurs only in athletes who lose both water and sodium during exercise, and fail to fully replace their sodium losses. The second theory holds that the symptomatic form of [...]
HYPOHYDRATION EFFECTS ON SKELETAL MUSCLE PERFORMANCE AND METABOLISM: A 31P-MRS STUDY
The purpose of this study was to determine whether hypohydration reduces skeletal muscle endurance and whether increased H+ and Pi might contribute to performance degradation. Ten physically active volunteers (age 21-40 yr) performed supine single-leg, knee-extension exercise to exhaustion in a 1.5-T whole body magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) system when euhydrated and when hypohydrated (4% [...]
