Drinking H20

[Randy]

You can drink to much water causing cramps when running.
Outside of that, I have never heard of a single case of anyone drinking to much water. Most people rarely drink their daily recommendation of water.

Hmm cramps??? I have never experienced that. It makes me sweat more.

Maybe I'm wrong.
I just read an article where they recommend drinking water for heat cramps

I could of swore I heard drinking a lot of liquid before a run causes cramping. Maybe it was eating instead

Greetings my Friend

Yes you can overdose on water. Although rare, there is such a thing and there are several cases among athletes.

Its called hyponatraemic encephalopathy. Do a search and you should find something about it.

Yup, I've experienced hyponatremia. Got all dizzy. Even drinking some Gatorade and eating satly stuff didn't even help till a couple hours had already passed.

I had it too, last year. I drank about 13 Liters of water..........this is how I found out about it. My head hurt so bad, I ached all over and I had the dizzys too. Thats why I rarely go above 8L now.

I drank so much water the other monday at this international students coffee meeting. I walked home with this girl afterward, we started having nice conversation, that until my bladder started to overflow. I needed to take a piss so bad, i would have pissed behind some bushes(but the girl). I have to hold it all the way home

lessons learn: 1. Drink lots of water when possible.
2. Dont drink as much water when walking home with a pretty girl

Now I heard it all And I thought the water was the one thing that was pure and free of any side affects to your body. I guess there can be bad in anything these days
