Synopsis
Tim Noakes, medical doctor, exercise physiologist, and internationally recognized expert on human performance, debunks current hydration beliefs. Waterlogged outlines practices that endurance athletes should follow, variables they should consider, and guidelines they should use to maintain proper fluid balance in sport training and performance., "Drink as much as you can, even before you feel thirsty." That's been the mantra to athletes and coaches for the past three decades, and bottled water and sports drinks have flourished into billion-dollar industries in the same short time. The problem is that an overhydrated athlete is at a performance disadvantage and at risk of exercise-associated hyponatremia (EAH)--a potentially fatal condition. Dr. Tim Noakes takes you inside the science of athlete hydration for a fascinating look at the human body's need for water and how it uses the liquids it ingests. He also chronicles the shaky research that reported findings contrary to results in nearly all of Noakes' extensive and since-confirmed studies. In Waterlogged , Noakes sets the record straight, exposing the myths surrounding dehydration and presenting up-to-date hydration guidelines for endurance sport and prolonged training activities. Enough with oversold sports drinks and obsessing over water consumption before, during, and after every workout, he says. Time for the facts--and the prevention of any more needless fatalities.

    I was worried when I saw the box arrive in the mail...UNTIL I realized the seller had created a customized shipping container to protect my purchase from any dents or dings the holiday mail could create. The product arrived in perfect condition. Just as advertised. Thank you!
