Always Stay Hydrated

It is extremely important for an athlete to stay hydrated at all times. This means an athlete should be drinking water or electrolyte enhanced sports drinks before, during, and after physical activity. The human body is made up of 65% water, when we work out we sweat and lose that water so we must put it back into our systems or else we can dehydrate. Athletes should drink water constantly throughout the day and during physical activity switch to drinks such as gatorade or propel. These electrolyte enhanced beverages help replenish the salt loss in our body as well as rehydrates our system.
