Scurry Tip #6: Fluids


Replace fluids early and often during and after exercise, particularly in hot environments.

o Drink 16-20oz of fluid 1 hr before exercise to increase speed, stamina, and concentration
o For every hour of exercise, you should drink at least 20oz of fluid as soon as possible after exercise.
o Drink from a cup because larger gulps are emptied from gut into muscles much faster
o An adequate amount of fluid in the body is required to burn fat
