So that's the basic rundown of my day. Or... not so basic? Water totaled at 22 cups. Twas a good day for me. My butt and hamstrings are super sore so I'm glad tomorrow is a rest day. I'm going to lower the carbs tomorrow since I'm not training.
What counts as "a lot" of water for you? How much do you drink when you are feeling like you didn't get enough that day?
For me a lot of water is anything over 20 cups. Anything from 16-20 is normal or good and anything under 16 cups (a gallon) isn't enough anymore and I will likely feel thirsty throughout the day.
