You can cancel out the coffee. While coffee is good for you, it also dehydrates you. So don't count it as part of your liquid intake. You need at least a gallon a day.

Your mention of a 'gallon of water a day' poses a question. If your urine is clear...completely clear and not yellow, do you really need a full gallon of water per day? Call me crazy but if my urine is clear...it's an indicator that I am properly hydrated. If you drink too much, will you have an electrolyte imbalance?Originally Posted by austinite

Sure. It also depends on your stats. I don't know many people with stats that would be affected negatively by a gallon of water. As far as electrolyte imbalance, you're never really balanced. The fluctuation is ridiculous. Now remember, the average person may not need a gallon (although it won't hurt), but for people like you and me, who hit the gym regularly and are generally pretty active, you better believe you need a gallon or more.
