THC is fat soluble. THC is stored in the fat cells and remain there until the fat cells are burned for energy. Therefore, you cannot rid THC from fat cells by drinking copius amounts of water. It doesnt work that way.

When fat cells burn, the stored THC metabolites are released back into the bloodstream, filtered by the kidneys, and end up in the bladder. The filteration rate of THC metaboltes from the bloodstream by the kidneys is unaffected by copius fluid consumption.

Drinking water only serves to dilute the THCA concentration that is present in the bladder. It does not eliminate the THCA, but instead it "thins out" the concentration in the hoping that the urine sample registers below the cutoff thresholds of a drug screen (thats providing that the THCA concentration is not too high). The dilution phenomena, however, is only temporary - once the water consumed had all been urinated out, the bladder is replenished with fresh THCA-laden urine by the kidneys, and thus the donor is back to square one.

And contrary to popular belief, sweating is hardly of any help because very little THC is excreted via sweat. You can sweat enough to fill many buckets, yet the amount of THC being excreted would still be miniscule. The rest are being excreted via the urine and bowels.
I understand, to clarify what I'm saying: hydration simply elongates the time one can be working out therefore it is good for your exercising (I drink a gallon a day regardless because of weight training). Yes, sweating won't do anything because of the insolubility of the THC metabolites in water, but obviously working out initiates the fat burning process, and proper hydration combined with a proper diet will ensure it will work. Also, there are clear factors based on biological characteristics of one's own body. (Thanks for your input though, I've read quite a bit of responses you make and you are a positive user in this community! I have read and used your advice )
