Hydration, Longevity & What Winning Looks Like | TRN Podcast Uncut

bring up a very important question or idea, Kramer, and that is if we look back at Dr. Tim Noakes, I mean, his scientific opinion has changed over the years where he was saying drink early, drink often.

And then he wrote the book Waterlogged, where he said, you know, maybe we're drinking too much and we're causing issues there.

So if you use your timer, that means that you have dialed in what is your sweat rate at different temperatures and different effort levels.

How do you come up with that and how do you use your timer effectively? And you have to adjust that timer.

Let's say right now in California, it's over 100 degrees every day versus, you know, a 50 degree Fahrenheit day.

Scott, you're talking about the old moving equation here.

Yeah, no, I'll take, I'll let, I like to take a stab at it.

I mean, I totally get that.

I mean, here, Colorado right now, we might have, um, I might start a run.

I did this just the other day, 50 degrees, um, six, you know, start at 6.00 AM, finish the run 94 degrees, you know, cause I was doing like a four hour mountain run.

And so it's like, yeah, you, your, your last hour is completely different than that first hour.

Right.

And so I do a sweat rate test and I generally just do an hour.

And so my hour long sweat rate test is weigh yourself pre-run.

Everything off, clothes off, everything off.

And then go run without liquids.

You can do liquids.

If you drink liquids on the run, you just need to weigh that exactly how much you had to take it out of the equation.

And then when you weigh yourself post-run, you know how much sweat you lost.

At least you're pretty close.

And then what I have done is...

Now, this is where you're getting into the three square or whatever.

I'm not a math guy, but the...

But now you've got different temperatures.

You got, you know, from 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 degree temperatures.
