July 2, 200521 yr Would you actually chose gatorade or powerade over water in a situation where normaly water would be needed for survival?I would chose water, I just wanna here some says on this... "Time is what we want most, but what we use worst"William Penn
July 2, 200521 yr Hmmm, are you talking like being stranded out int he desert? If so I would take Gatorade since it's got sodium and carbs in it that you could otherwise lose. For regular workouts, I would say just plain water. "You know the best thing about pain? It let's you know you're not dead yet!"http://geshmacheyid.forumotion.com/f14-self-defense
July 2, 200521 yr Both have their advantages, but in short workouts (hour or so), it doesn't make a huge difference whether you take water or gatorade. Where it starts mattering is in longer endurance events, upwards of a couple hours or more. This is where it starts to become more important to replace carbs and electrolytes (Potassium, sodium, etc).For regular workouts, water. For long endurance type things, gatorade.Aodhan There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.-Douglas Everett, American hockey player
July 3, 200521 yr it doesn't matter aslong as it ain't soda drinks or alcohol beverages one word says it all "dedication..."
July 3, 200521 yr Author true but would you chose one over the other? "Time is what we want most, but what we use worst"William Penn
July 3, 200521 yr I'd choose water, although powerade/gatorade/lucozade type drinks can be useful, especially for endurace events. "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..." The Beautiful South - The Rose of My Cologne Sheffield Steelers!
July 3, 200521 yr Because you say survival, I would choose Gatorade. Although I sweat profusely at a workout, I have never considered any class to be a survival situation. Jarrett Meyer"The only source of knowledge is experience."-- Albert Einstein
July 3, 200521 yr ...although when you're recieving a pounding from Sensei or another senior student it can feel like an exercise in survival sometimes!! "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..." The Beautiful South - The Rose of My Cologne Sheffield Steelers!
July 3, 200521 yr Author lol yea, but for no more confusion I mean in the desert what would you chose. "Time is what we want most, but what we use worst"William Penn
July 6, 200521 yr Water. Sodium will eventually leave you thirsting. That and the fact that I only drink water. To me pop is evil, really.My sensei will randomly hit us in the stomach when he feels need be, we're all okay with it as it helps us resist the urge. And if pop comes up, well that's never happend, so anywas back to topic.Water. Needing to focus...
