428. Drinking Water - Are You Making These Mistakes?

Trying to get enough water a day can be so confusing. Is is eight 8-ounce glasses a day? Or is it a gallon of water a day? Am I even getting close? The reality is if you don’t drink enough water, you’re going to feel lethargic, stiff and achy throughout your entire body, bloated, constipated, and generally unwell…which in turn, impacts your motivation and drive to do anything else fitness or nutrition related! There are some BIG mistakes that people often make when it comes to drinking water. And it has nothing to do with electrolytes or alkaline water or anything fad-related. In fact, those trends are just distracting from the real mistakes that people are making.
