...then you are dehydrated and need to drink more water."

That's what our trainer said to us yesterday on the field. Useless, being as I already knew that but I can't seem to guzzle down enough water to keep either her or my coach happy.

Just thought that I would share this morning though...

My coaches aren't checking my actual urine. They are telling me to check it so that I can tell if I am dehydrated or not.

And trust me, I won't be getting water poisoning any time soon.

Why is your coach inspecting your pee? You want to be careful with all that water - there is such a thing as water poisoning!

Because pee is waste mixed with water, if there is less water, therell be a higher concentration of waste in the pee. That is why the more dehydrated you are, the yellower it is...?

Yeah I knew that. I was just complaining because I drink so much water that it should be coming out of my nose and I still can't achieve the clearness my coaches want.

Is it supposed to be clear?

That is what our coaches told us. I almost got there but then I fell asleep and my body used all my hydration to fix itself from the hell that preseason is putting it through...

But if it's deep yellow and has a strong smell you need to pee more often or you're gonna get kidney stones

With the way I am sweating, I am amazed that I can go to the bathroom more than three times a day. I am downing water bottles every chance I get though.
