No training today
Woke up last night at 2:30am with a horrible headache, drank a glass of water, took a tylenol and went back to sleep. Woke up at 3:55am with a horrible headache, drank a glass of water and went back to sleep. Woke up at 6:00am drank a glass of water and went back to sleep. Woke up at 7:30am, felt so bad I didn’t even want to move. I still had a headache, my mouth was dry and I was burning up.
Dehydration sucks. Pretty much I was a goddamned retard yesterday, and paid for it today. Usually at work I drink about 10oz of water every hour, and more if practice was hard. Yesterday, I must have worked out harder than I thought, but I probably only drank 3 16 oz glasses of water and a bunch of wine.
There is a big difference between the 48 oz of water I drank, and the 90+ oz I should have drank. Obviously hydrating with wine is not helpful, but I think the key problem is that I don’t have the habits in place around the house that I need.
Even now, writing this post, I am sitting here thirsty. Thirst is a delayed response, so I needed to be drinking water hours ago.
Because of the dehydration this morning, I skipped my Sunday practice. I will have to do a better job in the future of maintaining my hydration.
I am off to down a glass of water right now.
