Pre Exercise

Make sure your normal diet contains plenty of water and a minimum of other substances known to impair hydration

Post Exercise

Drinks containing electrolytes (especially sodium) stimulate the desire to drink and may therefore be preferable to plain water. There’s also evidence that these drinks are absorbed more efficiently from the small intestine, especially when carbohydrate is present

Hydrating Yourself DURING your event

1. Weather and exercise intensity affect fluid needs; the higher the temperature, humidity and exercise intensity, the greater the rate of fluid replacement required

2. Never experiment with a new drink during competition. Try it in training first to see how your body tolerates it!
