Steven is a 35 year old male. To gain a better understanding of fluid requirement, you have decided to calculate his hourly sweat rate. You have collected the following data: · Exercise duration: 2 hours· Pre-exercise body mass: 85kg· Post-exercise body mass: 82.5kg· Fluid consumed during exercise: 350mL· Urine loss during exercise: 50mL From this data, what is his hourly sweat rate? Based on this, how much fluid should he consume during training?
Define the term Dry mass?
