How to beat the heat?

Try to stay in the shade more than in the sun. Wear a hat and sunscreen (a least # 30) if in the sun.  Drink a lot of water especially when you are not thirty. If you are thirsty, you are already dehydrated. To make sure you have a safe and productive practice: Before: Drink plenty of WATER. Do not eat a large meal 3 hours before; small meal (not fried, gasy or spicey) 1.5 hours before. You are totally hydrated when you are urinating often and your urine is clear in color. During: Bring a large bottle (a litre) of WATER to practice and take small drinks often by the side of the mat. After: Drink Poweraid, Gatorade or WATER. I highly recommend you use this routine for ever practice; not just during heat waves. If you find yourself sweating a lot, put a little more salt on our meals and try to eat a banana. This will help to prevent muscle cramps.
