Hydration
Dehydration has an adverse effect upon performance in exercise and sport. A loss of 2% in your weight during exercise (indicating loss of fluid) would correlate to a loss of 10-20% in maximal aerobic capacity.
A good indication of hydration levels is the colour of a participant’s urine. ‘Pale yellow’ or ‘very pale yellow’ would indicate a participant is within 1% of optimal hydration.
