How Much Electrolyte Do You Really Need During Exercise?
Sweating it out with intense exercise? For workouts lasting 1 hour+ (like running, cycling, or swimming), hydration isn’t enough—you need electrolytes too! ⚡ Here’s the scoop:
🧪 1L sweat ≈ 500mg electrolytes lost. Add a drink with electrolytes + a little sugar for better absorption and energy. 🍭
💡 When to hydrate? Sip every 15-20 mins during exercise.
❗ Key takeaway: Focus on consistent exercise first—1 hour of moderate activity daily matters more than the perfect drink.
Stay hydrated and keep moving! 💪💧
