“Thirst is not a good indicator of your level of hydration.” – Coach Shane
My college coach has more sayings than I can count. Many of them make us laugh, but all of them have wisdom behind them. I would have to say that his most-used saying is, “Thirst is not a good indicator of your level of hydration“. I don’t think I could count the number of times I’ve heard my coach say it. He repeats it over and over again, but to tell you the truth, we always need to hear it! The wisdom behind the saying lies in the fact that by the time you are feeling thirsty, you are already past the point of being adequately hydrated. If you feel thirsty, it’s too late!
