Easy way to stay hydrated

by Dmitri Tkatchev

Hydration is easy

It’s simple. To maintain optimum health and physical fitness:
• Drink fluids
• Regularly
• Preferably non caffeinated (but still counts)
• Eat water rich foods often. Vegetables and fruits (preferably low in sugar) are great to keep hydrated
• Avoid dehydration during a workout by drinking a glass of water an hour before training, during the workout as required and within an hour of finishing.

See you at the studio soon.

With healthy wishes,

Dmitri and the team.
