![]() The position statement of the American College of Sports Medicine on exercise and fluid replacement stated that a hypohydration greater than 2% of body mass impairs endurance exercise performance. ConclusionĬurrent results may help athletes with different beverages preferences to increase their options of hydration strategies. ![]() Furthermore, no differences on water consumption during the race ( p = 0.55) or time-trial performance ( p = 0.84) were observed between trials. Measurements of body mass, urine specific gravity (USG), urine color and time-trial were compared between drinks (group g) before and after the race (time t). Male road cyclists ( n = 9 age, 26.8 ± 4.78 years) with 10.8 ± 8.56 years of experience in national competitions, consumed either SPD or SM in doses of 350 mL at 3 h and 350 mL at 1.5 h before a 18.6 km time-trial race. In a randomized cross-over trial, we compared the effects of an isotonic sport drink (SPD) with skim milk (SM) consumption before a race, on fluid homeostasis and time-trial performance in road cyclists. Milk, due to its carbohydrate and sodium content, may be considered an effective pre-exercise hydration beverage. Pre-exercise hydration recommendations target the consumption of high carbohydrate and sodium beverages. Hydration status affects endurance performance.
