The role of hydration in sport nutrition
Main Article Content
Abstract
Personalized hydration strategies play a key role in optimizing the performance of athletes during sporting activities and in their health promotion. Sports can cause an acute disruption to fluid balance,maintaining fluid balance to manage athlete goals and optimal performance can be a challenge, especially in extrem environmental conditions. Individual fluid intake requirements are influenced by sweat rate, physical activitate mode, workout intensity, environmental conditions and exercise duration.
Professionals,who work with athletes, should be aware of the many physiological, logistical, and psychological factors that determine an athlete’s fluid requirements during physical activity. Among athletes, elaboration of a hydration strategy and developing good hydration practices are required.
