The number one tip to stay healthy in the trades is simple: stay hydrated—especially in the summer heat. If you’re working outside, under the sun, or in any extreme condition, you’re losing water fast. That means you’re losing electrolytes too—and that can lead to cramping, fatigue, and even dangerous heat stress.
Here’s where Working Athlete’s Hydrate & Recover comes in. These electrolyte packets are made specifically for tradespeople—not just gym goers or runners. They help your body:
Replace lost electrolytes (like sodium, potassium, and magnesium)
Recover faster after a long shift
Stay sharp and focused throughout the day
Prevent heat exhaustion and fatigue
Drinking plain water is good—but without electrolytes, your body can’t absorb and use that water properly. Working Athlete gives your body what it actually needs to perform and recover. I personally use it every day, especially in the summer.
Hydration tip: Start hydrating the day before a hot day. Don’t wait until you’re already thirsty on the job. Wake up, drink 7-10oz of water (you lose a lot of fluid during your sleep believe it or not). Continue to drink and stay hydrated. There’s any easy formula to follow to stay hydrated. Take your body weight, divide it by 30 and drink that amount in Oz every 15-20 min. For example, if i’m 200 lbs, divide by 30, I should be consuming about 7 oz of water every 15-20 minutes! That doesn’t sound to hard, does it?
