Why Hydration Matters, Even on Rest Days!

Hydration's crucial even when you're not sweating it out; it's easy to assume hydration might not be as important when you're resting and not sweating as much.

However, the truth is, your body's need for water never takes a day off. And in fact, most of us are underhydrating.

Staying hydrated, especially on rest days, plays a significant role in our recovery, energy levels and overall wellness.

Hydration Supports You
Hydration isn't just about replacing what you sweat out; your body uses water for digestion, temperature regulation, and joint lubrication, just to name a few. These processes don't stop on days off.

Hydration also supports skin health, hormone regulation, and long-term cardiovascular function.

A simple strategy? Drink water immediately after you wake up and keep a bottle nearby throughout the rest of the day, and aim for around 2-2.5 litres of water daily.

Energy and Mood Boosts
Even mild dehydration can cause fatigue, headaches, and difficulty concentrating. Your body needs water; it needs to stay hydrated even on rest days to keep your mind sharp and your energy high.

Conclusion:
Rest days aren't just about skipping the gym and resting; they're also about giving your body what it needs to supplement it and come back stronger. And hydration is a must-have.

By fueling your recovery with water, you'll feel more energised, focused, and ready to give your best when you step back into the studio.
