Objective
Examine how different levels of hydration affect physical performance.
Materials
- Water bottles
- Participants
- Physical performance tests (e.g., running, jumping)
- Notebook for recording data
Instructions
- Measure baseline physical performance of participants (e.g., running time, jump height).
- Divide participants into groups with different hydration levels (e.g., well-hydrated, moderately hydrated, dehydrated).
- Ensure participants in each group drink different amounts of water before retesting.
- Perform the physical performance tests again with each group.
- Record the results in your notebook.
- Compare the physical performance results across the different hydration levels.
- Analyze your findings to understand the importance of hydration for physical performance.
- Present your results in a report, discussing the impact of hydration on athletic performance.
