Hydration Reminders and How Your Sweat Should Dictate Your Plan Ep 143

Hydration may seem basic, it's one of the biggest reasons endurance athletes struggle in training and racing (and come to us for help).

In this episode of Find Your Edge, Coach Chris Newport shares essential reminders about sweat rate, sodium loss, fluid needs, dehydration, heat, cramping, bonking, and GI distress.

You’ll learn:

• why sodium matters most in sweat
• why every athlete’s sweat is unique
• how heat and intensity change fluid needs
• why 2% fluid loss can affect performance
• how to estimate your hydration losses
• why guessing is not a race-day strategy

If you are tired of guessing what to drink, how much sodium you need, or why you fade late in races, this episode is for you.

Stop guessing and start using a personalized fueling and hydration system built specifically for your body, your sweat profile, and your performance goals. Get on the Fueling and Hydration Bootcamp waitlist here: https://www.theenduranceedge.com/fuelingbootcamp/
