Guest guest Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 Hi Amy, I only go a few times a day these days between waking up and going to sleep at night, and I don't notice any difference on my workout days. I think my urine production is just down overall though so I would not be a good point of comparison for you.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 Hi Amy, I have to say, since being on the pred, I drink water ALL the time now just to avoid leg cramps, so that I'm forever running off to the bathroom! I don't find for myself that I am running off to the bathroom anymore than usual when I'm active or working out that day. Then again, I think it's because I lose most of my water through sweat instead. I think it's natural tho, because exercise will cause you eliminate more toxins, and...well, there's only a very few ways a body can eliminate them. : D Sophia > For those of you who work out on a regular basis do you find you end up > going pee more on the days you work out?

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 Well, as I understand it, the physiology of the body with regard to exercise is that water loss via the kidney actually decreases with prolonged heavy exercise, but it increases in other ways. Maybe you urinate more frequently, but not a greater volume. But due to the water loss in other ways, mainly via the lungs and sweat, you do need to hydrate more when you exercise a lot - at least under normal circumstances.
