Plastic Bottles

A lot of guys I know have taken to putting slices of fresh lemon or other fruits in their permanent water bottles to give it flavour.

 

This has become fairly common, with specially designed water bottles being marketed - You can add the fruit of your choice in the AM, and top up your water throughout the day, without needing to add anymore fruit.

Alternatively, have you heard of Ecobricks - https://www.ecobricks.org - You can fill up you empty (and clean) bottles with your other non-recyclables, and send them in to one of their UK centres (think the nearest one is Southampton) which you can find a list of on their (closed) FB page - Ecobricks UK public group | Facebook - Who in turn use them in the construction of various items.

Was gonna post something like that as well re: water bottle. Altho I hate the taste of plain/tap/boiled water as well. So bit of Britta, add in that lime/fruit water and enjoy.

 

Scottish tap water is excellent so.... I can't relate

 

I just use britta and squeeze some lemon, but that infuser sounds a better idea.

I just saw the plastic brick concept this week; sounds a great idea

 

...and that's how it's done!

 

A few years ago, I disliked unflavoured water, but when I wanted to changed that, I got used to it pretty quickly. I usually drink tap water for training, and tea at home Lemon in the water is great, too, for times when I am not lazy.

As for water bottles, I really, really recommend glass ones. I used plastic ones, normal PET or training hard-plastic ones, but after some time using it regularly, there probably appear cracks in the material and bacteria and it starts smelling, and it is really hard to get rid of that smell. I love the water from my glass bottles. Tastes fresh all the time I only buy plastic bottles with milk sometimes.

 

If you don't love the taste of plain ol' water you need to be training harder

 

As its also good to smash on the head for a self defence scenario.
