I read in a forum on cutting wight, and the guys said they drink 2 gal. of water a day until close to the fight.do you guys have to make yourselves drink, or do you workout that hard that it take that much to keep hydrated? I think I drink about 1 gal a day.

I drink 2 gallons a day, somedays I have to force myself to drink all the water. Other days I go through 2 gallons like its nothing. Usually if you are training for a fight you are going to be working your *** off (and sweating your *** off) You will need the water for hydration.

Other than being hydrated, it's good for your system.

what about replacing minerals & salts you lose from sweating? Gatorade and that type of energy drink? is the sugar content an issue?

I will usually mix gatorade and water together half and half, if I am cutting weight for a fight I will drink pedialyte (sp?) after weigh ins

i drink between one and two gallons per day, usually more towards one. but also another good thing to have is a suppliment called heed.. its the same concept as gatorade but much better. and pedialite is good to take after weigh ins, i do the same
