Can understanding your sweat hold the key to unlocking peak athletic performance? Join me, Chris Newport, on the Find Your Edge podcast as we explore the science behind sweat testing and its pivotal role in sports nutrition and hydration. This episode promises to reveal how measuring electrolytes like sodium, potassium, chloride, and magnesium can dramatically enhance your training and recovery. From preventing cramps and dehydration to reducing post-workout headaches and dizziness, learn how personalized sweat testing can pinpoint your unique electrolyte needs, ensuring you're always at your best.

Through a mix of scientific research and personal anecdotes, I’ll guide you through the practical steps of sweat testing and its undeniable benefits. We’ll discuss real-life examples, highlighting the vast range of sodium loss among athletes—anywhere between 215 milligrams to over 5,000 milligrams per hour. This insight allows for tailored hydration strategies that elevate performance and safety. Tune in to discover how optimizing your electrolyte balance can transform your endurance events, from marathons to triathlons, and make cramping, nausea, and dehydration issues of the past. Don’t miss out on these game-changing insights!
