People always forget that swimmers sweat in the pool and don't think they need to drink water. Your tired muscles lose water as they tire and if you don't replenish it, they have nothing to help the blood flow. Sports drinks are OK, but make sure they don't have sugar, as that aids in dehydration. I'm not a doctor. I'm a swimmer with 31 years experience. Paul,
