Thanks for the tip about the water. I usually don't get thirsty while exercising, but then drink a lot throughout the morning. I will give it a try on my next running day (Thursday).
You've got me all inspired!
See ya...
P.L.
Here is an e-mail I received one morning in the 'ol inbox. The day before, I'd run on the treadmill next to a new friend at the athletic club where I train. Over the 90 or so minutes we were in the room (treadmill, stretching, weight training, etc), I noticed he didn't have a water bottle; I didn't see him frequent the water fountain, either.
Now, normally I mind my own business when it comes to training. Although I am a certified personal trainer (having just earned the credential late last year), I still only offer ideas/advice when or if someone asks. In this case however, I just wanted to share my observation.
Someone reading this knows the numbers much better than I do. The body is made up of XX% water; and as such, it has to be replenished regularly.
Have I ever let you in on my "water intake secret?" If I have not yet done that...here is the one that saves me week-in and week-out:
Each day, I drink one more glass of water than the day before.
Now, when I start each day, I have NO idea how much I'll get to drink. But, I can usually remember about how much I had the day before! So, some mornings I start off thinking, "Oh boy, yesterday was a 'dry' day, I'd better carry a bottle with me through the morning."
8 glasses, 4 glasses, 10 glasses of water...just get one more glass in within an hour of reading this blog entry! (Oh, with my friend from the club it turns out he's drinking more water these days and told me he thinks it's making a difference!)
I was searching for some posts about nutrition and i like very much that one! It is very interesting article!
