Sweat Testing

By Precision Performance Lab

Sodium is the key electrolyte you lose in your sweat and it’s crucial to your hydration status. Everyone loses a different amount of sodium in their sweat, from as little as 200mg of sodium per litre, to as much as 2,000mg/L. This is largely genetically determined and our at-rest Sweat Test can tell you how much you lose so you can dial in your hydration strategy.

  • How it works:

    Sitting comfortably for ~30-45 minutes whilst our Sweat Test kit stimulates a small patch of your forearm to sweat maximally and we collect a sample. No needles, no exercise.

  • What you learn:

    • Understand your sweat sodium concentration (in milligrams per litre of sweat), so you can tailor the strength of your drinks
    • A detailed report and consultation with a hydration specialist
    • A fuel & hydration plan for your next race (and access to the planning software for future races)
  • This service is ideal for:

    • Athletes who struggle to perform in the heat, but can't work out why
    • Athletes who struggle with cramp, particularly late on in races
    • Athletes who feel bloated, thirsty or have a dry mouth, or pee frequently during training and racing
    • Athletes looking for the performance gains that can be found by optimising your approach to hydration
