Lift through that hangover.
Tell us if you’ve heard this one before: Friday night rolls around, work is finally over and your friends all want you to go out to the bar. Nothing wrong with that. But then a few drinks, turns into a few more. Suddenly, you’re taking shots and before you know it, you’re waking up Saturday morning with a massive hangover.
So, you got a little tipsy last night. Is that a good enough excuse to skip the workout you had scheduled for today? Of course not!
Actually we have some good news for you. A workout will actually make you feel better! It’s true! While there is no confirmed proof to most hangover “cures” – hitting the gym for a light workout is a proven way to start feeling better right away.
Is all of this reading making your hangover worse? No sweat. Let us break it down for you in a few simple ways:

Water
We can’t stress this enough. If you are going to workout after a heavy night of drinking, DRINK A LOT OF WATER! Alcohol dehydrates you and a major part of why you feel so terrible the next day is because your body is dryer than your protein powder.
It’s always important to hydrate during any workout, but when managing a hangover it is especially important. Without enough water, you might actually end up feeling worse by working out – possibly leading you to vomit city. We recommend using a fusion bottle to add some natural flavor to your water, allowing you to hydrate more without sacrificing any unnecessary calories.
