Water weight loss can be dangerous. Just a 1 percent change in your body weight can signal dehydration. (For Spectrum Health Beat)
Working up a good sweat when you exercise lets you know you’re working hard, but it’s also a sign that you’re losing water—water that needs to be replaced.
Water not only regulates your body temperature, it also helps lubricate joints and transport nutrients. If you’re not properly hydrated, you won’t be able to perform at your peak. You could even experience fatigue, cramps and more.
