    Weekend warriors and competitive athletes—hydrat Weekend warriors and competitive athletes—hydration isn’t just a weekday priority. Whether you're training, competing, or recovering, staying well-hydrated sets the stage for optimal performance. One of the simplest ways to monitor your hydration status? Check your urine color. Pale yellow usually means you're in a good place. Dark yellow or amber? That’s your cue to drink up.

Remember, dehydration can sneak up on you—especially during summer practices, travel, or tournament weekends. Don't wait until you're thirsty to hydrate. Start your day with water, fuel with fluids before and during activity, and rehydrate post-exercise with water or an electrolyte-rich drink. Keeping your urine a light lemonade color helps ensure you're staying ahead of fatigue, muscle cramps, and sluggish recovery. Prioritize hydration, and your body will thank you with better energy, focus, and results all weekend long.
