Most people don’t drink enough water. I didn’t either, until I made it a habit. Hydration affects everything—energy, recovery, digestion, even appetite. Sometimes, when you think you’re hungry, you’re just thirsty.
Here’s what I do: I keep a big water bottle with me all day. I drink a glass as soon as I wake up. I flavor water with lemon, mint, or a splash of electrolyte if I’ve trained hard. And I aim for consistency over perfection.
Dehydration sneaks up on you. If you’re tired, cramping, or losing focus—it might be time to refill your glass. Simple fix, huge payoff.
