Water, or H2O, is essential to life. Indeed, a few days without it, and death comes quickly due to dehydration. This is because we lose water through respiration, sweating, urinary output, and fecal output. Of course, exercise speeds up the rate of water loss. As a result, intense exercise, especially in the heat, can lead to cramping, dizziness, and even death if fluid intake isn’t sufficient. This makes fluid intake an important priority for both exercisers and non-exercises alike. In this presentation, you’ll learn all about hydration, water distribution in the body, fluid balance, and fluid regulation.
