Hey /fit/. Am I drinking too much water? I drink like, at least 6 litres a day and pee like a fucking race horse.

I doubt it. Are you active/exercising? I probably drink that much water and piss a lot. At least its water and not soda. You can actually kill yourself by drinking too much water but I doubt you're anywhere close to it, and it needs to be a lot at once. You should be fine.

Your body knows how much water it needs, just drink when you are thirsty unless you are in the heat or doing extremely intense exercise, then you can drink a little more as an extra precaution.

You can't really overdrink on water, unless you drown yourself.

Your body will just piss away all the extra water. It's probably better to drink more than you need, rather than be dehydrated like most people are.

You obviously never heard about that woman who died after drinking a bunch of water for a contest to win a Wii.

If you drink too much you can flush nutrients out of your system and it can kill you. It's called hyponatremia. Please don't make shit up and post it as fact.

fitness already has enough trouble differentiating fact from just preference, throw in tards from 4chan and this is what results

Alright, didn't that woman drink however much in a really short time span? Obviously that's dangerous.

Also, just reading a little bit on hyponatremia, it looks like it usually happens due to other factors, like diseases and whatnot.

Anyhoo, 6 liters per day sounds like a lot, but you aren't having any ill effects other than peeing a lot, so you're fine.

Hyponatremia refers just to sodium levels below normal. But with that said, just make sure to keep having sodium. Also, are you drinking because you are thirsty or because you are making yourself drink?

As long as you don't drink more than 1 litre an hour you should be fine.

Judge by the color of your urine, if it's clear - you're fine.

If it looks dark yellow - drink up.

the wii lady died because the contest was to hold your wee for a wii, you fucking idiots
if she had pee'd, she would have had been just fine. however, she was holding it, as the title of the contest suggests, in order to win a wii.
