Hydration Tips

1. Eat a balanced diet and drink adequate fluids 24 hours before exercise.
2. Drink at least 16 oz of fluid 2 hours before exercise.
3. During exercise, drink at regular intervals. The goal is to replace fluid at the rate sweat is lost (up to what can be tolerated).
4. Fluid should taste good and be readily available.
5. If exercise is longer than 1 hour, carbohydrates and/or electrolytes should be included in fluids.
