In today's episode, we're talking about the importance and beneftis of hydration especially for aging athletes. Without proper hydration blood flow to all muscles whether it's your quadriceps or heart muscle can be compromised, making your ability to perform less-than-optimal.
Hydration can become more challenging as we age, making it essential to understand the unique needs of the over 40 athlete. Our bodies naturally lose water more rapidly with age, and the sensation of thirst can decline as we age. This can be related to changes in a couple of hormones - aldosterone and antidiuretic hormone which play a role in fluid balance and urine production.
