Unanswered: How long Does Water stay in the system for?

How long before a match can I drink water and still lose it before my match?

Water doesn't magically vanish out of your system. So to answer your question, you lose some water by taking a pee or sweating it out, the water will still be in your system. You don't lose all of it.

I understand that water does not magically vanish, I appreciate the clarification tho. I meant, if I drank 20 ounces of water now, how long would it be until I peed that out?

As long as you can hold it. lmao

Usually 30 minutes or so. I think spitting is the best way to lose water weight. You don't waste any energy doing it. Use gum.

if you are dehydrated it might not come out of your body. best way to do it is sweat it out. especially if you've been cutting weight already then take in water, more than likely it will stay in your system for longer.
