When coaching endurance runners of all levels to be their best, I always emphasize the need for proper hydration with the right balance of electrolytes. Most athletes I\\u2019ve coached are surprised to learn that their sodium needs are actually much higher than they expected and it\\u2019s been hurting their performance.\\xa0
Part of the reason athletes need much more sodium than they think is not just because they lose electrolytes through their sweat, but also because athletes tend to eat very healthy diets. They\\u2019ve been told that salt is a bad thing in food and frequently don\\u2019t get enough for their lifestyle.\\xa0
Much of the science of sodium is based on people who eat highly processed diets which also are very low in potassium. It could actually be the low potassium levels causing the issues that sodium has been blamed for!\\xa0
What is clear is that both sodium and potassium at the proper levels are essential for high performance (and for life in general!).\\xa0
That\'s why we partnered with LMNT to offer a free sample pack of their electrolyte mix.
