Question
multiple choice question
choose the best fluid replacement when participating in prolonged exercise under warm environmental conditions.
plain water
an amino acid solution
a water and carbohydrate solution
During prolonged exercise in warm conditions, the body loses not only water but also energy. Carbohydrates provide energy, and water is needed for re - hydration. Plain water only re - hydrates without replenishing energy. Amino acid solutions are more for muscle repair and not the best for immediate fluid and energy replacement during such exercise. A water and carbohydrate solution helps with both re - hydration and providing energy.
