How to drink water when exercising?

Now many people have joined the ranks of sports, because regular exercise and developing good exercise habits are very good for personal health. Not only can they maintain a slim figure, but they can also resist various diseases. However, there are always some problems during the exercise process. For example, many people don’t know how to drink water during exercise? In fact, drinking water is quite scientific, and it is necessary to master the correct way to drink water.

How to drink water correctly during exercise? Sports experts believe that heavy drinking during exercise is unscientific and harmful to health. "After strenuous exercise, the body consumes a lot of energy and the functions of various parts of the body are at a relatively low level. If you drink a lot of water at this time, it will inevitably cause an excessive burden on the heart."

Don't wait until you feel thirsty to drink. Drink about 100 to 150 milliliters of water every 15 to 20 minutes of exercise. This way you can always maintain a good condition. During exercise, the correct way to drink water is in small amounts and multiple times. What everyone needs to pay attention to is not to drink water based on thirst, because when we feel thirsty, the body is already dehydrated.

In order for the body to absorb water better, it is not advisable to drink water with too high sugar content during exercise. In addition, the water temperature must be properly controlled, neither too hot nor too cold.

Rinse lightly for a few seconds before taking a sip of water

The correct way to drink water after exercise is to add 0.7%~0.9% table salt to pure drinking water (mineral water or boiled water). This can replenish the salt lost in the body in time. Don't drink too much water. Rinse your mouth after the first sip of water and spit it out. Each sip of water thereafter should be rinsed lightly in the mouth for a few seconds before drinking slowly. This will not only quench your thirst quickly, but also effectively control your water intake and effectively avoid bloating and fatigue after drinking water after exercise. If you don't have saline solution, you can also drink regular beverages and avoid carbonated drinks.

Generally speaking, you should not drink a lot of water during exercise. If you drink too much, it can easily cause a heavy burden on your heart, and in severe cases it may affect your gastrointestinal function, especially after strenuous exercise. You should not drink a lot of water. In addition, you should also be careful when drinking water. It is best to drink some saline solution instead of carbonated drinks.
