hi,
i'm a big beleiver in taking lots of water when exercising. they say that when you feel thirsty you are already dehydrated. having said that i also listen to my body

and i find that in long chi sao periods, drinking water is the last thing on my mind, not only do i not want to do it and dont see any ill effects, but i actually feel like it would be harmful to me to do so.

from the external point of view i should drink water - but is there an internal aspect where it is better qi wise to not do so?
