How to Hydrate for IRONMAN with Andy Blow from Precision Fuel & Hydration | Ep 491
Episode description
Do you know how much fluid you lose through sweating in an hour? How about the amount of sodium?
Sweat rates and concentration can vary hugely - from 300ml per hour to 1500ml per hour. And 200mg of sodium to 1500mg+ per hour.
Not knowing how much liquid, and what strength of electrolytes to be consuming while you're racing puts you at a very real risk of - at best underperforming, at worst a trip to the medical tent.
Why risk hundreds of hours of training for something that can be taken care of relatively easily?
Andy Blow, founder of Precison Fuel & Hydration talks us through the importance of correct, personalised hydration specifically for IRONMAN athletes.
PF&H are the new hydration partners for IRONMAN Europe, and will be providing on-course hydration at all European IRONMAN events throughout 2024.
