Recently, we’ve received several questions about frequent urination during training and racing. This can happen when your drink recipe isn’t quite right and needs adjusting. It can also occur at this time of year when temperatures drop, due to a natural response called cold diuresis. Now is a great time to review your settings to make sure everything is still working well for you.
Settings to Review in the App
There are two key settings in the app that are worth checking:
Menu > Personalize > Personal Saltiness
If you’re peeing a lot, try increasing your saltiness setting. By default, it’s set to Moderately salty, but you may have changed it to a lower option. Increasing it slightly can help you retain more fluid.
Menu > Personalize > Fueling Concerns
One of the options here is "Thirst during training". If you’re urinating frequently, consider turning this off to reduce your recommended fluid volume slightly.
