Hydration Will Be Key For Beijing Bound Olympians, What Every Athlete Must Know
Date:7/25/2008

or-bio.asp?ID=9" target="_blank">http://www.discmdgroup.com/soft-tissue/doctor-bio.asp?ID=9 [Dr. Joe Horrigan], director of the Soft Tissue Center at http://www.discmdgroup.com [D.I.S.C. Spine and Sports] and one of the country's most respected strength and conditioning coaches. "Decreased power production, overheating, increased workload on the heart have been associated with dehydration. Studies in recent years have also documented decreased mental focus in dehydrated athletes. This would obviously manifest in the most critical last moments of a game or event."

Pro beach volleyball star http://www.qsports.net [Elaine Youngs], a three-time Olympian and 2004 bronze medalist, who will be going for the gold in Beijing, takes hydration seriously with the demands of her sport.

"Make no mistake about it, my partner Nicole Branagh and I are heading to Beijing to win," Youngs said. "We've done everything we can on and off the court to be as prepared as possible and that includes understanding and addressing proper hydration. Being on the beach, playing match after match, in the sun, running and jumping on such an unstable surface is a recipe for sweat -- and plenty of it.

"We've got to stay on top of keeping our fluids up during matches and replacing them immediately after or we know our performance will suffer. We've come too far and worked too hard to give up any edge from something as simple as staying properly hydrated."

There are very simple methods to monitor dehydration. The first is to weigh oneself before and after every practice. The athlete should also weigh him/herself before and after competition. Weight loss in a matter of hours is due to fluid loss, which can lead to dehydration. The weight lost represents the weight that must be restored quickly.
