What is Hydration Test?
|
Hydration is essential for optimal health and performance. just by losing 2% of your body weight through sweat can lead to performance impairment.
Sample collection, measurement, and disposal are significantly more convenient than urine testing or naked body mass measures, and straight from the mouth measurements verify sample integrity. Having this field-accessible hydration testing tool, we can detect both acute and chronic dehydration through salivary osmolarity. Through this hydration testing, we are able to make sure athletes are well hydrated before the race or training to have those marginal gains. |
What is Sweat Test?
|
Athletes typically utilize sweat testing to address two essential questions: how much sweat they lose during exercise and what they lose in that sweat. As a result, you can replace it and maintain your performance.
The second question focuses on the electrolyte content of your sweat, and the most significant electrolyte present in your sweat, at least in terms of hydration, is sodium, which helps you absorb and retain fluid in your blood. Athletes can lose anywhere from 200mg of sodium per liter of sweat to as much as 2000mg. By having your sweat tested, we can help you personalize your hydration plan, which will not only help you perform better, especially in hot/humid circumstances, but also get those marginal gains. |

Bernice Tan (Triathlete/Runner)
"As an athlete, I often find myself feeling fatigued and unrested for the next training. When I heard about how the sweat test may enhance my recovery, I decided to try it. After the sweat test, I learnt more about my sweat content and how to replenish my sodium and fluid properly. It has gradually enabled me to recover ."

"The sweat test conducted with Idrotas was a great eye opener into how I need to be approaching my race day hydration. Through the test itself we identified that I’m a slightly heavier sweater than I previous thought and alongside a discussion with Bryce we crafted hydration plans for the sprint and standard distance that took into account my sodium loss and sweat rate. Having experienced nutrition & hydration issues in previous races, having a more rigorous plan that accounts for my body's own individual needs gives me the confidence that I can perform on race day without these issues interfering again. With the team's professional expertise at an affordable price point, I highly recommend their services to anyone trying to take their performance to the next level ."

"A good way to gauge how much I need to hydrate and the nutrients I need to take in before, during and after my training and races."
