During exercise

Drink 200-500 ml just before exercise to start well-hydrated
Drink 200 ml every 15-20 minutes to maintain your fluid balance

When you are not used to drinking during exercise, try this during training. Increase the quantity you drink slowly to 200 ml per 15-20 minutes. It will improve your performance.
