    Archie Moore liked to walk on his hands. I’ve not seen nor heard of a boxer doing it since.

    This is the logic of people who didn’t understand the need for electrolytes.

    A greatly under appreciated one—if you get hurt in training, you train through the injury.

    Electrolytes (salt, magnesium, potassium) are needed or your kidneys will shutdown, heart will develop arrhythmia etc. You sweat these things out. Drinking water straight will dilute the concentration of electrolytes in the blood.
