The kind of water I drink...

hartsoup Posts: 51 Joined: 2003/03/13	2003/03/18, 05:52 PM I've been drinking tons of water lately as I am starting my workout program. Does it make a huge difference if I drink city water or filtered water? Should I start getting bottled water? Thanks!

I assume they filter the water but Who knows .. its only the YMCA and they may just have their water fountains hooked up to the city water. . I don't see why it be a prob if you drink tap water or bottle. Aslong as the city don't put unecessary chemicals into it. Perrin -------------- "There is no age limit on transforming your life.

In fact some of the most popular I believe were to havebeen found to be tap water. So it is up to you I personally buy bottle dwater then reuse the bottles with tap water till they need to be recycled. -------------- IF YOU CAN STILL ITCH YOUR NOSE AFTER ARM DAY, GO DO ANOTHER SET!!!
