Are you missing salt? - Wednesday, June 25th, 2025
Are you missing salt?
When the temps rise, sweat increases, and water alone won’t cut it.
If you’re training hard in this heat, you’re not just losing fluids, you’re losing electrolytes. Especially sodium, and it matters more than most people think.
That foggy feeling mid WOD. The cramping. The “I drank so much water, why do I still feel wrecked” feeling.
You might be under salted, not under hydrated.
That’s why we carry SODII hydration in our shop Indestri retail area.
The Role of Sodium in Performance
Sodium isn’t just some salty additive, it’s an essential electrolyte that:
Helps your body retain fluid (instead of just peeing it out)
Supports nerve function and muscle contractions
Prevents cramping, fatigue, and mental fog
Balances blood pressure and volume (important in heat)
When you’re working hard in the heat, your body is dumping sodium fast. Replacing it isn’t optional, it’s vital for consistent performance and recovery.
Why Water Alone Isn’t Enough
If you're drinking tons of water without replacing sodium:
You dilute your body’s natural salt levels
Your body can’t hold onto the water you're drinking, so it passes through without actually hydrating you at a cellular level
Why We Stock SODII
There are a lot of hydration products out there, but many are packed with sugar, artificial sweeteners, or unnecessary fillers.
SODII is clean, effective, and simple:
High sodium content (about 1000mg per serving) to actually replace what you’re losing
Balanced with magnesium, potassium, and other electrolytes
No sugar, no fake stuff
Trusted by high performing athletes and ideal for functional fitness
How You Could Use SODII
Everyday use: Mix one pack in water mid morning or early afternoon (especially on hot days or training days)
Pre-workout: 30–60 min before class if you sweat a lot or tend to cramp
During training: If you're doing long endurance sessions
Post-workout: Helps with recovery, especially when combined with your normal post WOD hydration and food
Pro Tip:
If you’re drinking water and still feeling “off,” tired, or slow to recover, it’s time to check your sodium.
Hydration is more than a bottle of water. It’s what’s in it that counts.
Swing by the shop Indestri retail area and grab some SODII. Your body will thank you, mid WOD, post WOD, and the next day too. Especially when you’re sweating as much as you are in this heat.
Also note this isn’t a sales pitch. We only stock products in the shop Indestri retail area that we use ourselves. We’ve found products that work well and help us, so we carry them to share with all of you.
