Did you
know?
When muscle tissue is dehydrated by even as little
as 3%, it will lose 10% of its strength and 8% of its
speed.
Water, water every where and not a drop to
drink.
Contrary to popular belief, the most common cause of poor
physical performance is dehydration.
The first thing people often look at when feeling light
headed or nauseated in a workout is their nutrition.
Albeit, nutrition is important, the first thing to ask
yourself when feeling light headed or nauseated during a workout should be, how
much water have I been drinking.
And not just drinking during the workout. You need
to drink before, during and after.
For a one hour workout you should have at least 10-16 oz.
20 min. prior to the start of exercise, another 24-32 oz. during your workout,
and at least 16 oz. after your workout.
These numbers will vary depending on workout intensity and
weather conditions.
Have a Healthy Day,
