Figure 1 Weekly training volume during 4-week rowing training camp. (A) Distance covered during rowing training at low (Lactate < 2 mmol·L−1) and high intensities (Lactate ≥ 4 mmol·L−1). (B) Weekly duration of rowing and land training. Small numbers with triangle represent days of measurement.

Figure 2 Plasma copeptin and serum sodium concentration in male (left) and female (right) rowers during training camp. ∗Data significantly different from day 0 (P < .05). †Data significantly different from day 7 (P < .05). Dotted line represents lower limit of normal serum sodium concentration range (135 mmol·L−1).

Figure 3 Relationship between 24-hour body weight change and serum sodium concentration. Dotted lines separate positive from negative body weight change and hyponatremia (< 135 mmol·L−1) from normo- or hypernatremia, respectively.
