We have observed that American sports use a water cup made of special plastic material after track and field competitions. The inner wall of this water cup is wrapped with a special material, which not only keeps cold, but also has good anti-corrosion properties. The cup body is elastic, making it easy for athletes to squeeze out water quickly. After simply pressing the valve at the mouth of the cup, the water cup can have a good sealing effect and will not leak.

Chinese Olympic athletes also use a variety of water cups. The sports participating in the competition are roughly divided into two types. One is to directly use disposable drinks similar to mineral water provided by the organizing committee, and the other is to bring a thermos cup by yourself. . Everyone knows that you should not drink cold water immediately after strenuous exercise. Not only will it cause pathological changes due to the collision of hot and cold, but it will also cause metabolic imbalances in the body due to the low temperature of cold water. Therefore, many athletes will use thermos cups to keep the water temperature in the cups at 50°C for a long time. -60℃, which can quickly reduce thirst during exercise and will not impose a greater burden on athletes.

In cycling competitions, athletes often use car-mounted plastic sports water cups. This type of water cup is the same as the water cup used by track and field athletes. The advantage is that it can be easily operated with one hand and can quickly close the water valve.
