752 - What role does hydration play in exercise?

Hydration plays a crucial role in exercise. When you exercise, you lose water through sweat. If you don't drink enough water, your body gets dehydrated, which can make you feel tired, dizzy, and weak.

Drinking enough water before, during, and after exercise helps:

  1. Keep your body temperature cool
  2. Give you energy to perform better
  3. Recover faster after the workout
  4. Reduce muscle cramps and injuries

So, always remember to drink water before and after you exercise, and take sips during your workout to stay hydrated and do your best.
