Why is it that when I’ve pushed myself too far when exercising and get really thirsty I have to take small sips of water instead of just chugging it?

On one had, breathing and drinking get in the way of each other. If you’re breathing too hard after a workout, it’s going to be hard to put that aside and drink large gulps.
