Here are a few things I've run across over the years and added to my belief system:
- liquids are what counts but water doesn't need to be digested and doesn't contain diuretics (like caffeine) so I basically like water the best
- you need 2 ounces of water for every five minutes during your work out and are sweating
- the typical person drinks 64 ounces of fluid daily, which leads to Coke looking for share of stomache rather than market share and bases that on 64 ounces
- if you always pee clear you're probably drinking too much; it should be light yellow, not dark yellow which may mean you're not drinking enough or have a lot of vitamin B in your system
And I'm a firm beleiver in listening to your body! With that in mind, Zeraph, you probably did the right thing.
