The Best Water Bottle for Your Fitness Style

It can be so confusing to stare down a row of water bottles at your favorite sport supply store. There are countless options now, to help battle all hydration needs. In fact, they can be so different that the only thing they seem to agree on is: hydration is key to health. We agree too! (How much I key? A good guideline is to try to drink about 2 liters per day, plus whatever fluid you lose through exercise.) But, back to the point, which is the best water bottle for you, and your fitness style?

CITY STYLER

You: Commuter with a bag that could save you in the zombie apocalypse.

Your water bottle style: Something light, to fit in with all the rest of your essentials when empty.

Best bets: Find something plastic that is BPA free, maybe even collapsible for space saving. A straw is a nice feature to help you remember to drink more throughout the day.

A great option:  Bubi Bottle (https://www.bubibottle.com/)

You: Logging miles every day for the next 10k/marathon/triathlon.

Your water bottle style: Something you can use for long runs, at the gym and at your desk.

Best bets: A water bottle with running in mind makes it easy for this bottle to double up functions. Something with a handle for easy carrying and maybe a pocket for keys/gels/phones.
