What is a Sweat Test? 

A Sweat Test is a measurement of the ratio of sodium and other electrolytes to the amount of water you are losing as well as the rate at which you are losing fluids while working out. Throughout the testing process, we will develop a profile for you with all of the data we collect, and talk you through what is happening as you are sweating. With this information, we will help you build a nutrition plan that replaces the amount of fluid and electrolytes that you are losing. 

The main things we are looking for when sweat testing:

1. How much sodium/electrolytes are you losing per oz of fluid loss? 

2. What is your sweat rate at various temperatures, intensities, and cycling vs running.

​

We have tested athletes that lose a very very small amount of sodium per oz, all of the way up to 2,200 mg/L! Finding out where you fall on this range will help you construct a nutrition plan specifically for you and your needs. 

​

Doing a sweat test can save you valuable minutes come race day, but properly fueling throughout your training leading up to the race can create an even bigger impact on your overall time! So do not hesitate to get your test done and build your sweat profile and custom nutrition plan today!

After the patches are all used up, you will ship back the kit, and we will arrange for a call to go over your results.
