Concept Notes

• Dehydration - This refers to excessive loss of water from the body, usually through perspiration
or sweating, urination, or evaporation.

• Overexertion or Overtraining - This refers to the detrimental cause of excessive training. It occurs
when a person exceeds their body's ability to recover from strenuous exercise. You need to pace
your workout properly to avoid staleness. Staleness, or getting bored or uninterested, is usually a
consequence of overtraining. In an over-trained status, performance is known to decline sharply
and this can cause individuals to train even harder.

• Hyperthermia -This is an alarming rise in body temperature, which is an effect of exercising in a

very humid environment. It sets the stage for heat stress and even heat stroke, the potentially fatal
collapse of the temperature-regulating mechanism.

• Hypothermia - Excessively low body temperature, characterized by uncontrollable shivering, loss

of coordination, and mental confusion. It is a medical emergency that occurs when your body
loses heat faster than it can produce heat, causing a dangerously low body temperature. Normal
body temperature is around 98.6 F (37 C). Hypothermia occurs as your body temperature falls
below 95 F (35 C).

Activity 1: Analyzing fluid replenishment/replacement
