After exercise, drink two cups (16 ounces) for every weight loss, and note the color of your urine. If you are properly hydrated, should pale.



 6. Watch your alcohol intake

Alcohol in moderation is not a problem, but be sure to eat before starting the recovery process. Also, it is important to know that alcohol has been shown to accelerate the reduction in post-exercise muscle mass and loss of muscle strength as much as 40%.
