The Effects of Dehydration
Did you know that nearly half of all exercisers start their workouts dehydrated? Dehydration can impair performance, which can lead to injury. Here are some important points to consider.
Fatigue
On average, exercisers fatigue about 25% sooner when they don’t drink during exercise and become dehydrated.
Endurance
A 2% loss in body weight due to dehydration can cause at least a 7% reduction in endurance.
Fluid Loss
Beverages that contain caffeine such as colas, coffee, or tea stimulate fluid loss and promote dehydration.
Fluid Consumption
Exercisers who drink fluid may go 33% longer than exercisers who don’t drink anything.
