Powerade Zero

Powerade Zero
Does powerade zero help with hydration? EXERCISE...? TEN POINTS?

Before i exercise i drink about two cups of water, and during the workout is about the same...like running/circuits/strength ect...then after i eat something light and drink more water or tea-another 2-3 cups.

Should i drink gatorade or powerade on my tougher days? Some days i sweat loads, and its usually my circuit days of cardio/strength combos. I just tried some Powerade zero and although it claims no sugar/cals, i can read sucralose (art. sugar subs) and taste it so should i just stick with my water or get reg powerade?
I would probably only have about a cup of it anyway and go back to my water :)
I've heard about the milk, but i really just HATE milk! It has to be skim for me to handle the taste, would yogurt work? I love the greek yogurt with honey or fruit, i have that sometimes after a workout :)

Powerade Zero is better than water at rehydrating you, sure. It's still got the electrolytes, which will make you recover better than water.

However, on your hard days something like Gatorade, Powerade, or even G2 is better because of the calories needed to replenish your body.

Your plan of water before and during is good, just drink something more afterwards. It's been proven that chocolate milk is more effective in replenishing your muscles after a work-out than gatorade, so maybe try that.

I always come home from practice and have chocolate milk. The protein is really good for your rebuilding process and it goes down smooth.
