Hydration

It is very important to ensure that you remain hydrated when exercising. As little as 2% dehydration can impact almost every measurement of performance (aerobic, strength, power, speed, agility and reaction time). Staying hydrated can help you to improve your muscle function, regulate your blood pressure and improve your circulation. Hydration supplements can help to boost your performance and ensure that you stay optimally hydrated.

FAQs

What happens when you’re low on electrolytes? The biggest sign of your body being low in electrolytes is muscle cramping, which can be debilitating for physical performance. It is also common to experience dizziness, confusion and an irregular heartbeat.

What causes a loss of electrolytes?

The most common cause of electrolyte depletion is high-intensity exercise that causes a lot of sweating. You can also lose electrolytes if you are suffering from chronic sickness and diarrhea.

When should I use hydration supplements? 

Hydration supplements are ideal pre workout or throughout your workout. It is also very important to hydrate yourself after a workout.

Why is hydration important in sports?

When you exercise, your core body temperature increases and your body sweats to cool you down and prevent overheating. Adequate hydration ensures that you replace the water lost while sweating and is integral in preventing cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke.

How does hydration affect sports performance? 

Keeping hydrated ensures normal muscle functioning, so that your performance is not hindered by cramping. It reduces the risk of heat stress and helps prevent a decrease in both physical and mental performance. Athletes take hydration very seriously, and our powders and tablets give you one less thing to think about when trying to reach peak performance.
