  • Hydration and electrolyte intake can be a tricky thing to master, especially if you're running a long way in hot conditions. I can definitely say I've got it completely wrong several times and had some pretty bad experiences because of it. So, when the guys from Precision Fuel and Hydration contacted me when we were away in Chamonix and asked if I'd like to have a sweat test done, I jumped at the chance. The test was well worth doing and the results were quite shocking but I gained so much knowledge that's going to really help me in the future when it comes to my hydration and electrolytes.
    Thanks for watching, we'll see you in the next video and as always - stay safe and keep on running!

    Thanks Loyd, this was largely new to me and certainly somethings to think about and some testing to be done over the coming months. Another excellent video :)

    Helpful and interesting, thanks Lloyd. I cramped badly in my last 50km race and my maroon top was covered in salt by the end. This has me intrigued now so I might try and have a sweat test done before my 100km in a few weeks! Thanks 🤙

    Great video mate, never thought of jumping on the scales before and after a run. Will definitely be doing that because i sweat A LOT!! Always use P&H tabs and like yourself, sometimes i get it right, and sometimes i dont.

    Fantastic video loyd. I’ve only been running a year. I have signed up to my first 100k next year. I used to play a lot of football and rugby and was always the sweatiest, I always noticed salt marks. This is such a valuable video. Absolute legend mate.

    Cheers Loyd. Love the shoe reviews, gear reviews, race documentaries etc - but this was something I’ve never seen before and found it fascinating. Salty sweater here as well and often feel quite hungover after a hard run - very rarely pre-load, but will make a point of doing it now.

  • @debrascott8775
    @debrascott8775 Před 9 měsíci +5

    My understanding is that if we have more salt in out system we sweat more out. Out bodies are fantastic at self regulation in this area...even though there's a lot of marketing that wants you to believe otherwise

    • @Run4Adventure

    Thanks Loyd, this video confirms my choice for my hydration brand. I knew them since a few years, now that I am into ultra distances, I needed a better hydration plan and they are experienced. Let me tell that I worked with these sweat sensors and in a couple of years, smart sports watches will have these integrated so you can get an on-the-fly hydration recommendation during an activity

    Really interesting Loyd, thanks for that. I was listening to Andy being interviewed by Tristan and Jay a while back. I'm keen to try some PH stuff. I noticed on your Arc film that you started using their stuff and were recording it. Had you been using that for long before the race?

    • @Run4Adventure
      @Run4Adventure  Před 9 měsíci +1

      I'm glad you found the video interesting Ian. I was using there products a couple of months before the Arc and I'll definitely be using them in the race next year. The guys at PF&H are super helpful, I would recommend getting in touch with them and having a chat 👍

    Thanks for this vid, Loyd. I sweat buckets and always have salt crystals on my top and race pack, especially after a long run. I'm sure it's why I suffer from bad cramps (fell over on the Serpents Trail 50k this year and couldn't get up 😂). Will give Precision Fuel a go 👍

    I did this test at tamar performance lifton. I found that I lose 1228mg per litre of sweat. Safe to say that I wasn’t using enough salt in my nutrition.

  • @namits3775
    @namits3775 Před 9 měsíci

    Interesting although I think its all marketing. I did a precision sweat test and took "extra" salts and made me feel worse and all my clothes went white eg sweating out all the salt. It made no difference to my cramps which to me is more exercise associated muscle cramps (EAMC) then lack of salt. And only my calfs cramp and not whole body if you were salt deficient. Really on the fence with all the products available. Just my view.

    • @Run4Adventure
      @Run4Adventure  Před 9 měsíci

      Im not sure its just marketing, hydration is super tough to get right on the day because there's so many variables involved. Even when you've had the test and you've got a plan it can still go wrong! I totally agree and so would PF&H, cramping can be caused by fatigue as well and it's not just about hydration 👍
