So it has been pretty darn cold this last while. Personally, I’m over it. I’m ready for warmer weather. But, I am not in charge. In the meantime, we still need to get our workouts in.
There are a variety of challenges to cold-weather workouts, starting with getting out of the nice warm bed, but one that sometimes gets forgotten is hydration. When it’s hot out, we notice how thirsty we are and we don’t forget to drink our water. In the cold, we are somehow not so motivated to keep drinking.
My solution? Schedule it. When we have the habit of drinking between sets, we keep on doing it. The pickleball game finished and it’s time to switch up the teams? Drink. Got to the bottom of the ski slope and it’s time to wait in line? Take some sips.
Hydrated people are nicer people.
