As you all know hydration is one of the main factors for DCS, so I would like to see what some of you folks are doing before a long scuba trip, how do you hydrate before and during a dive trip.
I start one week before the trip, drinking 2 lts of water everyday, and 1 liter of Gatorade diluted in water 1:1, avoid coffee, alcohol and carbonated softdrinks. During the trip I drink 3 liters of water every day, specially before going to sleep but only a small amount before diving.
Would love to hear what you do.
Thanks
That must be Type 7 DCS ....
I started drinking water 16 years before I started diving, and I still got bent ... your method is suspect !
