Inadequate fluid replacement during prolonged cycling in the heat impairs time trial performance independent of serum sodium concentrations
PURPOSE: . METHODS: ) temperatures, whole-body sweat rate (WBSR), and TT performance. RESULTS: and WBSR were higher during the TT compared to 60FR (all P < 0.05). TT completion time was 8 ± 10% faster in 80FR (1793 ± 174 vs 1968 ± 246 s, P = 0.02). CONCLUSION: .
