Detailed explanation-1: -Sweat is very vital. Often the newer exerciser may not sweat as quickly or as much because they either haven’t been drinking enough water or their body doesn’t recognize how to cool itself off yet.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fluid intake (ingestion or even injection) ameliorates the dehydration and eliminates, at least partially, the inhibition of the thermoregulatory responses; so there are phenomena called ‘drinking induced thermoregulatory responses’ [6-8] and one of them is ‘drinking induced sweating’.
Detailed explanation-3: -How much do you need to replace your sweat losses? pound (16oz, or . 5kg) you lose, drink 80 to 100 percent of that loss (13 to 16oz or 400 to 480ml) while exercising to stay in optimal fluid balance.
