A lot of fitness experts will tell you the same thing over and over again. Hydration is essential! I also believed in this, but I wanted to get to the root cause myself and figure out why it is so dang important!
I found out that not only does water cleanse your body from toxins, but it is the building block for muscle growth! Our bodies are composed primarily of water 70-80% and this source depletes with exertion.
To calculate how much water you should drink, simply take your weight and divide it by 2. This is how many ounces in a day you should be getting. Below I provide you with a graph that will sum up the totality of my discoveries. I hope this pushes you to review your hydration intake a little more. I sure did!
