Drinking water after execise is a must, as you will perspire during execise which causes loss of water from your body. However, it is not advisable to drink water immediately after execise. I'm not too sure how bad will it affect the health. After execise, the heart is still beating fast, and breathing fast, so immediately pouring water in may affect, I think. It will be better if you can rest for a while, let the heartbeat and breathing back to normal, before drinking water.

You can drink water after exercise but I think you should drink energy water instead of plain water. Or you should rest for a while before drinking plain water.

usually i would take a 10-15 minutes rest after exercise before taking any water.. i am not sure drinking water immediately after exercise is bad for health, but my instructor recommends me to rest for a while before taking any drink..

Not at all. It's really important to drink water before, during, and after you exercise to help keep you hydrated. I don't think there is a time when it's ever BAD to drink water. Water is so important for your body.

not bad as such, but is not advisable. people say after exercise there should be no intake of water immediately. you can have some other energy drink .but not plain water.
