1 gallon does seem a bit excessive to me, but I'm sure it depends on your body and how you hydrate outside of the gym as well. I bring a 32 oz bottle of water and finish it during a workout and feel plenty hydrated but I also don't do more than 10 minutes of cardio at the end of my workouts. My partners and I lift almost exclusively...along with abs. We've managed to find cardio unnecessary for weight loss with our current routine is paired with intermittent fasting...but of course we aren't professional body builders either...and between the 3 of us, I'm the only one who has ever needed to lose weight.
