Division III Collegiate Athletes

Introduction
What is dehydration?
A dynamic loss of body water or the transition from
euhydration to hypohydration
Euhydration: normal water content
USG < 1.020
Hypohydration: water deficit
USG between 1.020 and 1.029
Significant Hypohydration: severe/chronic water
deficit
USG 1.030 and above
USG Values: American College of Sports Medicine and the National Athletic Trainers’ Association
\
Why research pre-practice hydration in
conjunction with hydration education?
Study with NCAA Div. I
athletes from New England
66% were hypohydrated
13% within this 66% were
significantly hypohydrated
34% were euhydrated
What would be expected
for Div. II or Div. III
athletes?
Would implementation of
hydration education create
improvements?

Materials and Methods: Surveys
Hydration Education
1. To maximize fluid retention, would you sip the liquid when
hydrating or gulp the liquid?
2. You should avoid losing more than ________% of body
weight during exercise.
A. 20% B. 10% C. 5% D. 2%
3. True or False: Vomiting is one of the signs of the early stages
in dehydration
4. When should you include drinks that have carbohydrates
when hydrating during exercise?
A. You should always include carbohydrate drinks during
exercise
B. When the duration lasts longer than 2 hours
C. When the duration lasts longer than 45-50 minutes
D. When the intensity is very high
E. Both B and D
F. Both C and D
5. Why could drinks with caffeine impair your hydration
status?
6. Does dehydration increase or decrease your core body
temperature?
7. Put a star next to the color in which you think the urine
would start indicating dehydration:
8. For every 1% of body weight lost, the heart rate:
A. Rises 3-5 beats per minute
B. Rises 8-10 beats per minute
C. slows down 3-5 beats per minute
D. slows down 8-10 beats per minute
Additional questions:
9. Do you ever restrict hydrating before competition in fear of
having a full bladder and being uncomfortable?
10. Is there always water available and near when
practicing/competing?
Fluid Intake
For the following, write in the average amount of
beverage consumed in fluid ounces per day. If you do not
consume the particular beverage listed leave it blank (fl
oz/day)
Water, caffeinated/decaf coffee and tea, milk, fruit juice,
sport drinks, nutrition drinks, energy drinks,
caffeinated/decaf soda, alcohol
*Nutrition Drinks include items such as ensure, boost,
protein shakes, etc.
How many ounces a day of overall fluid do you drink?
How many ounces and of what beverage do you drink:
One hour before practice or competition:
During practice/competition:
One hour after practice/competition:
How many times a day do you urinate? Circle the
estimated number
0-2
2-4
4-6
7-8
9-10
11-12
13-14
over 15 times
What color is your urine typically? Mark a star by the
color
List below any vitamins, minerals, or nutrition
supplements (proteins, creatine powders) that you take:
Lastly, list below any training habits or other lifestyle
occurrences that may have had an effect on your
hydration status:
Materials and Methods: Education
To calculate your sweat rate:
Weigh yourself
Workout for one hour in the conditions
you will be practicing and performing in
Track the amount of fluid you consume
during that hour
Weigh yourself after the workout
Pre-exercise weight-post exercise
weight=Weight lost
Convert this into ounces (multiply the
weight lost by 16)
Add the ounces you drank during the
workout to the ounces you lost during the
workout
This is how much you need to drink in one
hour during exercise
Example: you drank 16 oz during the hour
of exercise and lost 8 ounces (0.5 lb).
Sweat rate= 24 oz per hour

(Casa, Armstrong and Hillman)
Purposes
To assess the change of pre-practice hydration status
(USG) of three different classes of athletes after a
hydration education program and a one-month time
period
To relate the hydration status changes to the changes
in results of the fluid intake survey and the hydration
education survey
Examine the effectiveness of self-assessment
methods in athletes
Questions
Is hypohydration a problem for athletes in training? If so,
why?
Are there significant differences between male and
female athlete hydration?
How did the high school aged participants compare to
the collegiate participants?
After education, will the athletes’ fluid intake improve?
Do athletes purposefully dehydrate themselves?
Is water available to them during practice/competition?
Hypothesis
The majority of athletes for the first collection will be
in a hypohydrated state prior to practice
By the second collection, there will be an overall
improvement in the hydration statuses, and this will
be attributed to improvement on the surveys, and
furthermore retention of the hydration education
information presented
Younger athletes will show a greater improvement
College athletes will have improved surveys, but not
necessarily improved urine

Discussion/Conclusion
It can be claimed that the mean hydration status did
improve overall
However, the Phi coefficient calculation displayed
that there was little to no association between binary
variables.
With a bigger population, more could be determined
about how these trends are related
Discussion/ Conclusion
There was a mean increase in hydration education scores
However, those that increased their score by 2-4 points
had higher USG than those that only improved by none
or one point
Why? Wouldn’t it be expected that with more education the surveys
would improve along with the hydration status?
Participants that did not improve much in score had high
scores to start out with
These athletes were the best educated, and also showed the most
improvement in hydration status
Knowledge of Hydration does impact hydration status
Discussion/Conclusion
Hydration Education needs to be implemented early
on. As the athlete transitions from high school to
college, duration and intensity of workouts increase
which puts them at a high risk for dehydration and
heat-related illnesses if the athlete does not exhibit
proper hydration habits. These habits are developed
early in the athletes’ careers, thus education should
be implemented early

Improvements for future research
First morning void
Increase the number of participants
Involve the participation of younger athletes
Longer time span for collection
comparing seasonal variances
2 collections both trials (to get an average)
Obtain a more equal male to female ratio
More coach involvement with older athletes, more
parent education in younger
