You know, I try to eat right, take care of myself, stay hydrated, etc. But apparently I'm at a disadvantage with this triathlon training thing. Groundbreaking new research out of Granada University in Spain now shows that beer might be the drink of choice for rehydrating after a workout.
I'm not kidding
The study involved student working out until their body temperature reached 104 degrees. Half of the students were given beer and the other half were given water. Not only did the beer rehydrate better but it served a minor pain reliever for the aches and stresses of working out.
A cardiologist for the Real Madrid football team has long recommended beer to sports professionals after exhausting activities.
In theory this sounds like good news...but here's the problem....
I don't drink beer.
Maybe I should run a test on the effects of tequila?
