This video explains more on the importance of Oxygen
It has been proven that even a small amount of fluid loss can
have a big impact on your performance. Insufficient hydration
during exercise reduces your blood volume and makes it
difficult for you to regulate your body temperature as you
dont have the capacity to increase blood flow to the skin.
This causes your heat rate to rise significantly and reduces
performance potential and makes exercise seem more
difficult.
Note: Dehydration increases your risk of developing muscle
cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
