It's Monday again, and that means - Fit Club Monday! I am getting a late start today since we decided to prolong our weekend at the lake. We squeezed every little bit we could and I love that! Just got home and wanted to be sure to keep you informed!
When you are trying to lose weight, working out or just wanting to be healthy, there is no better way than to increase your water intake. I know I talk a lot about water here, but it is that important. Staying properly hydrated during a workout is important, as we all know because your performance hinges on it. But how do you know how much is enough? Is it really possible to drink too much water?

Discussion: do you drink water during/after your workouts or do you feel you need a recovery drink. For me, it all depends on the workout I am doing. I LOVE the recovery drink. It is tasty - like an orange julius. As Tony Horton says - I workout just so I can drink the P90X recovery drink!!!
