If you have ever exercised or competed in a sport during your youth, you know the importance of drinking water before and after doing physical activity. With that said, many people aren’t drinking water in a way that will allow you to perform at your peak.

When running, start hydrated but don’t overdo it. Take in 300-600 ml of water so you can be hydrated but not bloated before running.

You’ll be able to run at your peak and not risk dehydration and other health risks. For a fully detailed article on this topic, click here:: Hydration – The Right Applicaiton
