| Fluids | |
| Just as lack of carbohydrates can hurt athletic performance, so can lack of fluids. To prevent yourself from becoming dehydrated, drink lots of liquids before, during, and after strenuous exercise. To tell if you've had adequate fluids, monitor your urine. It should be pale yellow, not dark like beer.
Which is better. water or a sports drink? Water is always fine, particularly if you have enjoyed a pre-exercise snack to fuel your workout. If you are low on energy, a sports drink before or during exercise offers carbohydrates to enhance stamina and endurance. After exercise, water ( plus a carbohydrate snack such as an apple or granola bar), juice, or sports drink all provide what your body needs: water + carbs. |
