  • bit of an odd one while not specifically running its to do with exercise in general, wasn't sure where to post.

    i work as sport coach here in hk as you can imagine its hot and humid now in summer and im sweating my bits off but my sweat has nasty vinegary almost ammonia smell i have looked at diet and stopped drinking and cut out a huge amount of crap, crisps chocolate and stuff but still no joy.
    has anyone else experienced this and how did you change it ???
    ive googled but haven't seen any good solid advice .

  • ammonia smell

    @Rich_G - same issues for me lately. Not always, just sometimes. I usually train coming straight out of bed, no food and just a sip of water. Need to step up my liquid intake for sure (usually 1 to 1.5ltr p/day). I’ve also gone through rhabdomyolysis before and this kinda got me all worried again.

  • The eating before training helped a bit, and the fact that in HK and Singapore you loose so much water and salts etc from sweating so much. I really upped the water intake with dome pocari sweat. Its not a great smell! Fingers crossed its nothing rhabdomyolysis related.
    now I'm back in uk no smell... But no sweat as it too f'king cold
