DEHYDRATION 🥵
Some infographics over the next week inspired by our time travelling in the heat! ☀️
Dehydration is often cited in the literature as a loss of more than 2% bodyweight (via water loss) 💧
Signs & symptoms of dehydration include increased in heart rate, reduced skin blood flow, lowered sweating rate and overall impairment to physical & mental outputs 🧠
This is unsurprising considering the fact that water represents over 60% of total body weight and functions as a transport medium, lubricant, solvent and thermal regulator 🔥
Additionally, with increased fluid loss via sweating and/or respiration in hot & humid environments, also comes the loss of electrolytes ⚡️
These minerals such as sodium & potassium are vital for regulating fluid balance, and are important in other body functions like muscle contraction and blood pressure 🩸
Other than simply replacing lost water 💦, it is necessary to replace and replenish lost electrolytes (minerals) to prevent dehydration negatively impacting performance 🏆
More info on (de)hydration to come later in the week, check back soon for more! ☀️

Resilience Block Options
To keep it simple, the our Resilience Block is to get more expose or micro-dose based on an athletes history or sport. It can “typically” be an isolated, muscular or capacity based options. .
Typically a Resilience Block is as follows:
R1 - Resilience Option 1
R2 - Resilience Option 2
Here are a few options that athletes can include into their Resilience Block.
Video 1 - Harop Curl
Video 2 - Boshe Ground Based Iso Hold + Active Hip Flexion
Video 3 - Neck Bridge
Video 4 - Split Squat Iso Calf Raise
Video 5 - Copenhagen
Video 6 - Banded Penguin March
