Singers it is so important to keep the body hydrated! And it’s way more efficient for the body to do this from the inside out… I know lots of people are fans of throat sprays… I’m not… It’s a band-aid for the real problem… you’re not getting enough water!
The general rule is half your body weight in oz of water. So if you weigh 120, that would be 60 oz of water per day… and if you have to, always round up. A few extra oz of water won’t hurt you. However, please remember if you are doing any kind of strenuous activity… a show or lots of working out and cardio, you need more water.
* Drink 8 oz of water 20 to 30 minutes prior to exercising.
* Drink 4-8 oz of water every 10 to 15 minutes during exercise.
* Drink an additional 8 oz of water within 30 minutes after exercising.
Also drinking water will not give you cramps when you exercise… that is a myth. The truth is that cramps can be a symptom of dehydration. If you drink enough water everyday, it will ultimately reduce your risk of getting cramps. Don’t wait till you’re thirsty to drink water… Hydrate during the day…
