Literature Review #1
By Josh Schreck
A Review of “Exerciseinduced dehydration with and without environmental heat stress results in increased oxidative stress”
Summary:
This experiment and its results are very important for understanding the effect of heat on dehydration and their relationship. Many 90minute cycling trials were performed, with different combinations of temperature and hydration status. While all trials presented cellular stress, hyperthermia, and dehydration
, the ones that involved primary dehydration did so more. The results show the importance of constant hydration during long exercise. The takeaway is that you need to be drinking during a workout and before/after. Some people think you only need to hydrate before/after.
This is false.
Relation To Project:
This is related to my project due to the fact that it shows exactly how extreme exercise conditions affect an athlete. I can use the information in this article to not only create my own experiment to see how exercise and extreme heat affects a runner, but I can also use it to create a stronger argument for the need of my project. This is also another good example and it can show me some information that I wouldn’t be able to see in my own project. I will use this instead of recreating my own experiment. I can use this information instead now. These findings also show the reason its so important to hydrate and how we can do it better. This is a direct relation to my project.

Personal Reflection:
Overall I really appreciated the article and the information it gives me. Although some of the article is extremely hard to read and I can’t understand a lot of the words of the meanings, it shows the cause and effects of an experiment I would most likely not be able to create in my own lab. There are way too many people and equipment. This is a very
