    I disagree. Any of us sports players will say that dehydration will have an effect on our game. It didn't really have a large effect on him, but I did notice that in the first course, he caught the ball before walking on the beam. Doing it the second time, he caught it on the beam. Also, they didn't show him hitting the target the second time, so he either missed or didn't have as much accuracy. His lifting of the teammate wasn't as good either. Also, he knew the course better, because he did it once before. Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong, but leave your thoughts below.

    This isn't really conclusive for JUST dehydration. It's more of dehydration and heat.

Mostly diet soda. I'd love to see a study on that.

  • @houstonlundy5888
    @houstonlundy5888 11 років тому

    This was cool but the only problem I have with the experiment is the number of times he went through the course. The first time he went through the course he was unfamiliar with it (unless he practiced the course beforehand or this is a typical course for rugby players, they didn't mention this so I'm concluding it was his first time) which adds time due to unfamiliarity but he was more familiar the second time which can knock off time. Interesting to know how the body reacts though.

    Well for one they have more padding and clothing and the helmets add a greater dehydration of the brain. While football games are not nonstop they do last much longer. And the last point is conditioning, a football players conditioning takes a backseat compared to a rugby players due to stopping starting which allows for ample rest time between plays unlike rugby.

    What would be interesting would be to have a top conditioned athlete from all the major sports try this and see who could handle that. Rugby is a very high intensity sport, that's why everybody on the field is in great shape, no room for fatboys in that sport.
    For football I guess an equivalent would be a TE or LB, soccer would be anyone since they are all around the same build and basketball would be a PF or SG. I'm saying this to take an average sized player from each sport, cancel out the extreme tall or short, light or heavy players.

    @furaka1 11 років тому

    The point is that you can't, with any certainty, suggest that dehydration was the 100% cause of the performance difference. They're other variables that were not controlled for. Todd exercising on a treadmill and then repeating the test would affect the results. Prolonged exercise could cause fatigue, regardless of dehydration. Therefore, they are unreliable - in the world of science and research. I'm a sports science student and watching these has me cringing at some of the stuff they say.

    Wait how did you get that from the whole experiment. If you don't get water your blood thickens which makes your heart beat faster till a certain point your kidneys can't filter the thickened blood and you collapse and probably die. Their explanation of his success was that even though his blood thickened a lot his conditioning improved his kidneys filtering plus the dehydration activated his adrenal glands which activate when your in a state of disequilibrium but it only lasts so long.
