    You should drink enough water to stay hydrated regardless. Sometimes you'll feel hungry if you don't have enough water, so I suppose that if you are well hydrated you can avoid that.

    Water is essential for athletes, but it doesn't help you lose weight. Drink less energy drinks and more water. That's my advice from my own experiences. Any salts and nutrients that need to be replenished can be in your next meal. Sugary energy drinks are just a fad.

    caffine is one of the worst things you can have in your diet, constricts the blood vessels. It puts alot of strain on your heart and hurts the muscle. It only makes you thirstier anyways.

    water during a workout is essential so you dont get dehydrated,but after training in the first 30 minutes have some carbs to stop the catilitic effect eg a gatorade also replenishing your electrolites and geting some potasium to your muscels also bannana smothies are good
