Question: Pre-School Creative
Lyrical
I was at the gym the other day and saw someone drinking a sports
drink during their workout. Is this really needed if you’re only in the club for Acrobatics
a typical one-hour workout? Modern

The short answer is no! The average person, who works out for sixty www.ESPdance.com
minutes or less, will need nothing more than water to get them through Home of the National Award winning E.S.P. Performing Company
their workout. Your body has all the fuel it needs to exercise for that long,
especially if you start the workout well-fueled—and you should! It really
comes down to your goals, and the type of workout you’re doing in order
to reach those goals. If optimal performance is your focus, or if the planned
workout is very intense or longer in duration, then sports drinks may be a
good choice. In these instances, your body will need the extra calories and
electrolytes. In fact, research has proven this over and over again. If you
have additional questions related to sports drinks and performance, then
contact a sports dietitian or personal trainer.
