Trends We'’re Watching
3D ART
We will see a push towards 3D art. People are looking to add whimsey, intrigue and life to flat walls as we continue to spend more time in our homes. Any art that pops right off the wall, and can be configured in different ways, is going to be very popular this year. 3D interior design has evolved quite a lot in the past decade. Technology has become an integral part of the interior design process. The two are fully intertwined now, and both keep reinventing themselves with almost every coming day. Technology has completely transformed the design industry, making design possibilities truly
easyr
endless. The sky is the limit for everything interior designers want to create these days. We’re bound to see more and more tech tools enabling them to easily bring all their ideas to life. With 3D rendering, you can quickly create photorealistic 3D visualizations of your client’s ideas, and literally, sweep them off their feet.

1. You Don’t Drink Enough Before, During, and After Exercise
It’s advised for most people to drink 17–20 ounces (oz) of water in the two hours before exercise, in addition to 8 oz about 20 to 30 minutes before they start working out. During your workout, aim to drink another 8 oz of water every 10 to 15 minutes. Afterward, drink 12 to 24 oz of water. The more you sweated during your exercise session, the more fluids you’ll need to replace.
2. You Don’t Plan How You’ll Hydrate
If you’re taking a long walk, jogging, running, or swimming, you may forget to keep water handy or you may not feel like bringing a bottle along. But relying on water fountains to keep you hydrated is a mistake, most of the time, what ends up happening is people get dehydrated and then they end up guzzling water after [their exercise session], and by then it’s too late. Instead, plan exactly how you’ll stay hydrated during your workout, and figure out a system for carrying
water or a sports drink with you. For example, some people like to use fanny packs or carry a light backpack. Runners may choose to use a handheld water bottle. If you’re cycling and have a water bottle holder on your bike, make use of it, but remember to clean and refill your bottle between workouts.
3. You Don’t Replenish Lost Electrolytes The average person will lose up to half a liter of sweat every 30 minutes while exercising. This figure can rise to between three and four liters of sweat per hour, depending on metabolic rate, according to past research.
Sweat primarily consists of water, but it also includes important electrolytes, notes Ace Fitness: sodium, chloride, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. Electrolytes are minerals in the body found in bodily fluids such as blood and urine, per MedlinePlus. They help manage a number of bodily functions, including nutrient absorption, waste removal, and water distribution in the body.
Sweating, vomiting, and diarrhea can all lead you to lose electrolytes, leaving you feeling dehydrated or causing muscle cramps and spasms, as the Cleveland Clinic notes. Sodium is the electrolyte your body loses in the biggest quantities when you sweat — so if you’re sweating a lot, you need to replenish your salt intake to help yourself stay hydrated.
irritability, restlessness, and a higher risk of dehydration, according to past research.
4. You Don’t Choose the Right Sports Drink
As an electrolyte, magnesium helps restore hydration status during recovery. But many people don’t meet their recommended magnesium intake, especially men over 70 and teens, according to the National Institutes of Health Office of Dietary Supplements. In this case, consider adding more magnesium-rich foods to your diet — opt for legumes, nuts, seeds, whole grains, leafy greens, milk, and yogurt. Fortified foods, like fortified cereals, can also help you boost your magnesium intake.
One of the keys to replenishing lost electrolytes is choosing your sports drink wisely. Many sports drinks, such as Gatorade and Pedialyte, are specifically designed to maintain your body’s electrolyte balance when you’re sweating a lot. You can also find electrolyte powder or tablets, which you can mix into a bottle of water, at many drugstores. Coconut water replenishes lost electrolytes such as potassium, sodium, and manganese, according to Mayo Clinic. Many people choose sugar-free, calorie-free, or low-sodium sports drinks, which are commonly available at the grocery store. “But a sports drink should supply you with carbohydrates and sodium, so you really want to make sure those things are in the drink. Avoid highly caffeinated, highsugar energy drinks such as Red Bull and Monster, which can lead to increased blood pressure,
And keep in mind that adults and children alike should opt for sports drinks over water only during strenuous exercise that lasts for over an hour, per UnityPoint Health.
5. You Don’t Get Enough Magnesium
6. You Drink Alcohol After a Workout
Maybe you like to unwind at the end of the day by cracking open a cold one. But if your happy hour follows a workout, think again. Drinking alcohol after exercise is a mistake. As noted above, coconut water or electrolyte mixes are good options for a post-workout beverage.
