Hydration Hints
- Drink one to two cups of fluid at least one hour before the start of exercise.
- Drink eight ounces of fluid 20 to 30 minutes prior to exercising.
- Drink an additional eight ounces of fluid within 30 minutes after exercising
- Drink two cups of fluid for every pound of body weight lost after exercise.
- Both caffeine and alcohol can have a diuretic effect so be sure to compensate for this additional water loss.
