“…When quantifying a player’s hydration, it is important to consider training intensity. Several studies have shown that higher intensity training is associated with greater weight loss, greater loss of sodium in sweat, and a higher SR [ 27 , 37 ]. Therefore, the hydration needs of soccer players should be increased accordingly.…”

Exercise can disrupt the fluid balance, hindering performance and athlete health. Limited data exist on fluid balance responses in varying climates, sexes, and ages. This study aimed to measure and compare fluid balance and urine values among elite soccer players during training at high and low temperatures, examining the differences between sexes, playing positions, and competitive levels within men’s soccer. During the 2022–2023 competitive season, a descriptive observational study was conducted on 87 soccer players from an elite Spanish soccer team. The study found that none of the groups exceeded weight loss values of 1.5% of their body mass. Additionally, the soccer players studied experienced higher weight loss, fluid intake, and a higher sweat rate (SR) during summer training compared to winter training. During the summer, male U23-21 soccer players exhibited higher levels of weight loss, fluid intake, and a higher SR compared to female soccer players or the U19-17 male category. No significant differences were found between playing positions. In conclusion, differences in the fluid balance were observed based on the climatic conditions, competitive level, and sex.

“…the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature) which translate meteorological data into more refined appreciations of how heat is exchanged between human bodies and their immediate surroundings and the ways in which heat stresses different bodily functions (Havenith & Fiala, 2015). The results of these models are then compared with other physiological responses including heart rate and sweat rate alongside performance indicators for example, finishing times or goals scored (Konefał et al., 2021; Sabou et al., 2020; Zhang et al., 1992). Others explore how weather transforms environments ‐ a drier surface, for example, means higher knee injury risk for Australian football players (Ahamed et al., 2018; Orchard et al., 2001).…”

As part of an argument about the value of a geographical approach to the connection between local weather and physical exercise, this paper begins with how that connection features in four areas of scholarship that have been at the forefront of exploring it so far. By comparing how each of them commonly imagines 'the human' and 'the weather' in their studies, we particularly highlight how different bodies of work illuminate different facets of the weather-exercise connection. This, we suggest, represents an opportunity for geographers to explore how these facets combine in context with a view to tackling the complex public health challenges associated with increasing human inactivity and a warming world. Building on that, we end with three promising cross-cutting themes that we think could usefully guide these endeavours: adaptation, decision-making and place.
