Not Cathe, but yes, taking sips of water will keep your muscles nice and hydrated, which will help ensure adequate blood flow and oxygenation. Aim for about 8 oz. per 10-15 minutes of exercise for proper hydration (indoors, comfortable temperature and humidity). Your fluid needs increase during very hot or cold weather, or with higher-intensity exercise, but that amount should do for your average strenght training workout.

Thanks! Will drinking or not drinking impact my results, or just make it more comfortable? I don't find myself thirsty when working out.
