For your gallon of water a day...

[whiskeysticks]

...or however much you drink, do you take into consideration the water you use to drink your pre's/creatine/bcaa's?

I dont count water I mix with supps only the straight water I drink

[Valhallabound86]

I don't think it really matters.

[Terrimonas]

This is the opposite of overthinking. It is the refusal to engage a few brain cells in logical reasoning.

[Rob1882]

water is water

Its going to the same place and going to mix either way, I count it.

[mcord11758]

I just drink allot of water. At first I would consider how much precisely I am taking in. Once I got into the habit of drinking water I easily take down a gallon a day. As to how to count water with pre workouts or not I think water is water. what if your pre is in cap form, do you not count the water you take your multi vit with? I don't think you need to over think this, just drink water as much as possible especially if thirsty.

[ajdahlheimer]

I count any gatorade or fruit juice I drink during the day into my water intake as well, cuz both help with hyrdation.

[powercage]

You can count all the water with supps

[ROACHCLASS]

I count it all. That is like saying I put Crystal Light in my water so does that nullify it as water?

[AntM1564]

I drink out of a gallon jug, to make sure I get at least that, but don't use that for supps. Way overthinking this my man.

[Cheftepesh]

I would take in more than a gallon so count all water intake.

[whiskeysticks]

I didn't post this for my own usage, just curious how others do it while getting a conversation going - mainly to see how anal people are about it.



I have my system, it works for me and I'll continue to do it that way despite the various input.

good to know

You also have to make sure you accurately measure the volume of your urine (I use a scientific beaker) and at that volume to your daily water intake too

I agree with this.....this is pretty much the approach I use now and I feel like I get plenty of water

[TJB85]

The more water the better...

[Robsolutely]

I count black coffee, tea, unsweetened iced tea, plain water, and water mixed with any supplements.

I don't count juice, soda, milk, beer, or any other beverages that may contain some percentage of water.

Well black coffee, and unsweetened tea have caffeine in them which even though it is mild it can still have a similar effect to that of a diuretic so with caffeinated beverages I tend to feel the need for a little more.

[badassidtrip]

Count it.

[dylan123215]

You count supplements as water
