[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1173867, member: 198"] The key to hydration is starting the day before and also in the hours leading up to starting work. I keep a cooler full of bottled water and ice in the truck and I'm always sipping from a bottle in between stops whether I'm thirsty or not. I've been wearing moisture wicking undershirts lately and have never wore shirts that need to be tucked in. The heat needs to escape. That's also why I don't wear a hat and wear sunglasses instead. Lunch time can be dangerous. If you eat heavy meals with allot of grease then you're asking for trouble. That's why I grab a small snack to eat on throughout the morning so that I won't eat much of a lunch. And since we are all working late hours I do the same in the PM so that I won't be starving when I get home and eat my dinner at 8:30. So, basically......I'm always sipping on water (and one Gatorade about halfway through the day) and munching on snacks throughout the day to stay hydrated and avoid undershirts that have to be tucked in and hats because they both trap in heat.
