How much water should I drink after a hard workout?

Rehydration

Yes, in general sports nutrition being lighter is actually a bad thing. Weigh yourself before and after a vigorous workout. If you're one pound lighter afterward, you've sweated away about 16 oz. and should replace it by drinking 16 oz. (1 pint) of water.
