how important is it exactly to drink the recommended amount of water daily?
i personally, rarely drink water and the only times i ever really seem to is when i train just to hydrate myself.
i can't see myself drinking anymore than a single glass of water on a non-training day.

u muscles are build 3/4 from water , and thats why u need it , wehn u drink water it helps u to get biger , i drink about 1 gallon per day , water also speeds up u metabolizm , so i would say that u start drinking for good results , once u start u get ajusted to the idea and it seems normal after couple days , i dont know if u knew this but once u feel thirsty u are allready dehydreted, so drink up!
good luck,

Most of the water you obtain in a day comes from the foods you eat. Still shoot for around 1 gallon of water/day though.

Yes you can die from water intoxication just so you know.

Good way of looking at this is if you're using a shaker bottle which normally holds 20-25 oz ... drink at least 6 of those / day (1 gallon) and you'll be good

6 of those bottles / day is really not hard

water intoxication is just another term for drowning, right?
