Should I drink water during my workout?
When I do my workout, I often feel very thirsty. And I like to drink water after each set of exercises.
I often drink something around 1.5 liters of water during workout.

Is it okay to drink water in such quantities during workout, or should I wait until the end of the workout?

Yes, it is definitely okay to drink water during a workout! The main concern is to stay hydrated since an athlete that is dehydrated performs poorly.

The 7 Hydration and Exercise Rules That Every Athlete Needs To Know recommends that you should drink about 600 - 1,200 ml (2.5 - 5 cups) of liquid per hour, which is just below your 1.5 liters that you like to drink.

If you want to drink less during your workout, you could always try to drink more before your training. Try starting to drink some water, every hour starting 2 hours before your workout.
