Ways to stay hydrated after a workout

I talked a little bit about my fitness routine earlier this year and mentioned in my 2015 goals that getting back into shape and taking my exercise regimen seriously was going to be a top priority.

Last October, something told me to buck up and pull into 9Round Fitness in Round Rock. I had noticed the sign numerous times driving by to get a pedicure (they're in the same shopping center). Anyway, I walked in and chatted it up with the owner. The next day I had my first workout (your first one is always FREE) and I have been hooked ever since.

I needed something that was fast, fun, motivating and effective. This is a hardcore 30-minute circuit workout using boxing gloves, bags, weights and resistance. The beauty is that you can go at anytime during the day...no classes or schedules. 

It didn't happen over night, but I am finally starting to see a difference in my body, muscles reforming, stamina growth, greater strength and better sleeping patterns. 

I have stuck to my personal expectations for myself, and it's truly mind freeing; a weird sort of high. Taking all life's stress out on a punching bag, letting it all go and pushing my limits while "Tootsie Roll" & "Eye of the Tiger" blares over the speakers is a 30-minute adrenaline rush.  

But something else needed to be added to my healthier habits...kicking my extreme Diet Dr. Pepper habit. You guys, I would open a can on my way to the gym and finish it off after my workout. Crazy, right? You would think I hadn't heard of the word "water" before.

I started getting a little weak and would sometimes feel like I was going to pass out cold a few times when I first started a few months ago. Hmmmmm, I wonder why??? It's not rocket science. I was dehydrated and needed more water in my life. 

I have always struggled with drinking enough throughout the day. I need to have a "flavor" in my beverage. Simple water doesn't do it for me. But, I knew I had to figure out a way to drink more...for my own good. 

Enter DripDrop Hydration Powder. It has been a lifesaver over the last few weeks. I pack a bottle of water and pour a packet in after every workout. I really love the berry flavor, but they have a lemon one too. It's made drinking water more tolerable and I finish off a bottle in no time flat. I have also noticed a huge difference in how I feel after a workout. It is an awesome and easy way to get refueled and rehydrated...anytime during the day.
