KOBE's input on the Lebron cramps

[AITheAnswerAI]

so hunters who were battling beasts and catching their own food were at a disadvantage because they didn't drink body armor?

They also didn't have a very long life span now did they? Do you think it's ok to mimic everything they did just because they did in in the past, where they were lucky to live till 40?

 

[Hater]

My gawd has spoken

I'll only drink body armor from now on

 

[F0nz0]

John Sally told this dude to drink coconut water before the game..

Smarten up queen.

 

[madness]

Sorry Kobe. "Gatorade" had the monopoly and they ain't given up there spot. But I agree with his point, "Gatorade" shouldn't be the only choice for athletes but it has been for a very long time. Speaking of "Gatorade", 7 eleven has a limited run of "APPLE" flavor. I had this flavor in the 90's but only overseas. It's still great:

one step ahead of you breh

Just because dudes were hunters in the past doesn't mean they were better athletes or anything. Nutrition has made people better, point blank. Look at 100m dash times from the 1936 Olympics compared to present day. Slowest modern day dudes would dust Jesse Owens.

Not definitive that these new athletes are better breh

Watch the first 2 minutes and he talks about your Jesse Owens comparison

 

[mastermind]

yep...its ironic....all gatorade...powerade etc..... is is purified water....with the electrolytes added back in ...and a little coloring and sugar for flavoring

Bu-Bu-But it was developed in a lab on University of Florida's campus to help the U of Florida players from cramping?!

This dude really thought he was dropping some dope logic here. Even got some daps out of it

Let me take you through the bullet points breh

-Electrolytes such as sodium and potassium are present in the foods we consume, so ancient hunters were getting electrolytes

-Hunting is not a rigorous activity on the level of a professional basketball game in 90 degree weather

-Your post makes the assumption that ancient hunters never got cramps

-The benefits of electrolyte replenishment is not a marketing gimmick, it is a scientific fact. If you are dehyrdrated and have to go to the hospital for an IV, they do not hook you up to a tube of tap water. They feed you electrolytes and water.

Some dumb ass dudes up in here SMH. Note that this doesn't mean Gatorade or Body Armor are the best choice to prevent cramps, just that they are better choices than straight water

They're not superior humans with better athletic ability, but the newer ones are better athletes because of the modern inventions given to them. If nutrition was as important in the past as it is known would Owens have dominated? Probably, but people were just figuring out the perfect diet to maximize energy production.

yo some of you negroes really need to go back to school

Ilet me make some bullet points for you too breh

electrolytes are sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and a bunch of other. They naturally can be found in any spring water, which hunters would be drinking anyway.

Saying hunting is not as rigorous as playing bastkeball shows you clearly don't understand how hunting was back in the day. Your meal depended on what you caught and these guys were expending tremendous amounts of energy just to eat. If you did not catch your food, you starved.

Just so you understand once again

There was no gatorade, powerade or body armor and the fighting and energy expended along with swinging swords, best believe they were putting in work.

Lol at the iv being electrolytes, they are giving you a saline solution, which is salt and water

 

[Slystallion]

water only takes you so far.

Your body needs electrolytes and certain sodiums etc that are depleted when you do rigorous physical exercises.

Load of marketing bullshyt lmao

Marketing is showing Michael Jordan drinking gatorade after playing ball, your body needing those things is a fact.

 

[fact]

exactly

nothing except the foul vaginal juice of some white trash hotel employee was gonna quench kobe's thirst that night

Well, your body needs a lot of things but if we're talking about cramp...

Here's the thing: We actually don't know for sure what causes a muscle cramp, despite what you may have heard from your high school football coach, or your half-marathoning buddy, or your gym-rat friend, or a sports-drink commercial. And the reason we don't know has a lot to do with Gatorade and the "science" of hydration.

the concentration of electrolyte content in your sweat, even sweat with elevated electrolyte levels, is actually lower than what's typically in your body. Meaning, you aren't actually lowering your electrolyte concentration when you sweat—you're raising it.

In 2004 and 2005, Martin Schwellnus of the University of Cape Town ran two studies, one on an ultra marathon, the other on an Ironman. He observed a number of variables, but with regard to cramping the only hydration-related differences that showed up were that the runners who cramped had a significantly lower sodium concentration (this actually means these runners were over-hydrated) and a higher magnesium concentration—this is basically the opposite of what Gatorade promises.

So why have the scientific myths about dehydration and cramping proved so durable? Partly, it's because so much of the science surrounding exercise and hydration has been underwritten by Gatorade, which obviously has an interest in pushing the notion of dehydration as a performance killer and hydration as the silver bullet.

The takeaway here, however, is that fatigue seems simply to cause cramps, without regard for hydration or Gatorade's secret sauce or preparation or anything other than your muscle being tired. Which leads us to LeBron, specifically, and how a very hot gym might affect him differently than others.

Thanks for posting. This might be the best Ted Talk that I've ever seen.
