​With the warmer weather, it is increasingly important that you are well hydrated for your workouts. Here are our top tips for staying hydrated in the heat!
​
1) For exercise less than 60 min low to mod intensity Water is best drink before, during and after. Anything longer add supplement w sports drink that contains electrolytes and 6-8% carbs

2) Begin exercise well hydrated  drink plenty of non diuretics the day before and within hour before, during and after exercise

3) Eat at least 7-8 servings of fruits and veggies a day as they all contain various levels of water and the all important nutrient: potassium

If you stay hydrated, your workouts will improve and your internal body temperature will not increase as much in the heat.

A great way to stay hydrated is by using a hydration pack like these ones we got from The Runners' Den!
