Answer 7

Gatorade is great.  Food?  Eat fruit like an orange, grapes, banana etc.  

Answer 8

Eat in small amounts before going to practice. Maybe half a sandwich or a few chips. Keep in mind that salt dehydrates your body and thats something you DO NOT want before going out and pushing your body for a few hours in the heat. Drink water before you go, but dont drink more than 2 glasses an hour before.

A cold beer
