Fluid needs during exercise are highly variable and will depend on your athletes' individual sweat rate, the intensity and duration of the exercise session, and the environmental conditions.

For longer and more intense sessions, particularly in hot and humid conditions, athletes need to be more proactive with their choice of fluids to avoid dehydration.
What should athletes drink during exercise?
Water is generally a great choice for exercise that is less than 60 minutes, as well as during low-intensity sessions. Sports drinks may be an option when intensity and/or duration increases, as they can provide a practical way of meeting fluid, electrolyte, and fuel requirements. If sweat rates are high, but fuelling is not a priority, then electrolyte replacement drinks may be useful.
