The last few days I've been doing sweat rate testing and learning a lot.
2 days ago
4x12 workout @96-99% FTP
Starting weight: 153.7
Ending weight: 151.3
Fluid intake : 2
Total fluid loss: 4.4 (I also peed)
3mi Brick run at Oly pace
Fluid Intake: 0.8
Ending weight : 150
------------------------------------
Yesterday
82 min run 92F temperature in the format of 5mi E, 3x1.75 T, 1E
Starting weight 152.9
Fluid intake 3.25
Ending Weight 148
Total Fluid Loss of 8.1 lbs which blew my mind
-------------------------------------
Woke up today weighing 150lbs. Still under hydrated or low glycogen Im assuming. Maybe both This has me wondering if there would be any training benefit to go into a workout under hydrated. As when we go into an Ironman there's no way to maintain your weight 100% as you would probably go hyponatremic and consuming that much fluid would be a massive undertaking. I'm seeing data that 6% would be an acceptable loss, and a marathon winnner ended with 10% loss.
So my line of thinking is that by going into a workout somewhat depleted we are able to train for that second half of the race
Am I crazy and over complicating things?
