Maintaining enough water for the body when exercising in the summer does not only happen during exercise but needs to start many hours beforehand. Drinking water regularly throughout the day is the most effective way to maintain a stable hydration state. In addition, some foods can also help replenish water and energy before exercise.
Before exercising, prioritize foods rich in water, providing easily digestible carbohydrates, low in fiber and protein to avoid causing weight loss. Watermelons such as cantaloupe, cantaloupe and watermelon with a water content of about 90% are ideal choices to help support the hydration process.
Eating many different types of pickles also helps diversify flavors, avoiding boredom when preparing meals before exercise. Not only rich in water, pickles also provide easily absorbed carbohydrates, helping to quickly replenish energy for physical activity. At the same time, low fiber content helps limit stomach discomfort when exercising.
You can try a bowl of chilled watermelon, cantaloupe or cantaloupe before the workout to prepare your body for the workout process.
