<STRONG>After:</STRONG> Weigh yourself before and after a workout, and subtract the weight of any water you drank while exercising. For every pound you’ve lost during a workout, drink 16 ounces of water. Then remember that guideline for your next workout. So if you're 2 pounds lighter after an hour-long run, drink 32 ounces more before or during your next run.

If the difference between your before and after body weights is 2 percent (for example, 3.5 pounds for a 175-pound man), your athletic performance suffered. More than 2 percent means there could be potential health risks, including elevated heart rate and body temperature.
