After today’s first cardio session, I noticed just how much I was sweating, which is why it’s so important to stay hydrated. Drinking enough water is one thing, but making sure you add your HYDRA-CHARGE to it is just as important to get those 5 different electrolytes in there. You will also want to add a little bit of sea salt to your meals to keep your sodium and aldosterone levels happy.
Right now, it’s time to crush lower back, hamstrings and upper abs.
