Serological and urinary hydration variables.
| Variable | Condition | PREEX | POSTREC |
|---|---|---|---|
| Serum Osmolality (mOsm·kg−1) | EUHFL | 295 ± 2 | 296 ± 3 |
| EUHNF | 290 ± 5 | 291 ± 5 | |
| HYPOFL | 296 ± 8 | 310 ± 6 β,* | |
| HYPONF | 294 ± 3 | 304 ± 3 δ,* | |
| Urine Specific Gravity (AU) | EUHFL | 1.012 ± 0.009 | 1.009 ± 0.004 |
| EUHNF | 1.018 ± 0.005 | 1.017 ± 0.007 | |
| HYPOFL | 1.014 ± 0.008 | 1.017 ± 0.004 | |
| HYPONF | 1.021 ± 0.007 | 1.020 ± 0.005 |
PREEX, prior to commencement of exercise; POSTREC, 60 min post exercise. β = HYPOFL significantly different than EUHNF, p < 0.05; δ = HYPONF significantly different than EUHNF, p < 0.05; * = POST significantly greater than PRE, p < 0.05.
