Electrolytes For Sport
Shop electrolytes by sportEvery format and brand LYTES stocks lives on this page. If you already know your sport, these go straight to the page built around it.
AFL
Four quarters of repeat sprints, often in pre-season heat.
Athletes
Not training for one sport in particular? That's still the right place to start.
CrossFit
Sodium for WODs, metcons and double sessions.
Cycling
Long rides, hot roads and hours in the saddle.
Hyrox
Race-day sodium for 8km and eight stations.
Gym
Weights, conditioning and everyday training.
Rugby league
Big bodies, big sweat, humid winter footy.
Running
10km to half marathon, on the road or the track.
Soccer
Ninety minutes of near-continuous running.
Swimming
Yes, you sweat in the pool. Here's how much.
Ultra-running
Six-plus hour efforts, on foot, off-road.
Triathlon
Swim, bike, run — sodium loss that doesn't stop between legs.
What goes wrong when you train for more than one thing
One sport today, another tomorrow
Training across a few different sports or activities in the same week means your sodium loss changes with what you're doing, not just how long you're doing it. A habit built around one sport won't necessarily fit all of them.
The bottle that treats every session the same
Plain water and generic sports drinks don't adjust for effort or heat — they replace fluid at the same rate whether you just did an easy walk or a hard hour in the sun. Sodium loss doesn't work like that, and neither should what you put back.
Sugar labelled as recovery
Many recovery drinks bundle a full day's added sugar in with the electrolytes, whatever sport you're doing. Separating salt from sugar lets you replace sodium after any session without the sugar hit, and fuel with real food or carbs on your own terms.
Not sure how much you actually lose
Sweat rate and sweat sodium concentration vary hugely between people and between sports — a squash court and a long trail run don't cost you sodium the same way. Use the calculator below for a general starting range, or jump straight to your sport above for figures built around it.
Sweat and sodium in a 60–90 minute sessionGeneral ranges for moderate exercise of any kind — training, sport, gym or a hard weekend hit-out. Pick the conditions to see what a typical session costs you.
1 × 1 litre bottle
Sweat rate and sweat sodium concentration vary widely between people, and rise with effort and heat more than with time on the clock. Use these figures as a general starting point, not a prescription — if you train for one sport in particular, our sport-specific pages above use narrower data where it exists.
Roughly 0.9 serves of a 1000 mg sodium electrolyte serve, or about 720 mg per hour for the session.
Plain water replaces none of it.
Because this page covers every sport rather than one, its sweat rate and sweat sodium ranges are deliberately drawn from general exercise guidance rather than a single-sport study. The American College of Sports Medicine's position stand on exercise and fluid replacement (Sawka et al., Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2007) reports sweat rates during exercise commonly ranging from about 0.3 to 2.4 litres per hour and sweat sodium concentrations of roughly 20–80 mmol/L (approximately 460–1,840 mg/L), depending on the person, the activity and the heat, and recommends replacing 300–600 mg of sodium per hour for exercise lasting longer than an hour. The three conditions above sit inside those published ranges. If you train for one sport in particular, use the links near the top of this page — our sport-specific pages use narrower, sport-specific data where it exists.

Shop by formatWhatever sport you're stocking up for, the format matters as much as the formula. Pick what suits your bag and your week.
Sticks
One sachet, one bottle, whatever sport you're mixing it for. Easy to keep a few in any bag — gym, court or trail.
Best for switching between sports without carrying different tubsCapsules
Salt without a flavoured drink to sip mid-session. Swallow with water you're already carrying, whatever you're training for.
Best for sessions where you don't want a sweet drink on boardTablets
Drop one in your bottle after training or on the drive home, whatever sport got you sweating. Effervescent, low sugar, easy on a stomach that just finished working.
Best for topping up after any sessionChews
Chewable electrolytes for whenever a bottle isn't practical — on the sideline, between sets, or heading straight from one activity into the next.
Best for quick top-ups between activitiesTubs
Best value per serve and scoopable to whatever dose suits your sport and your week. Mix a batch at home and take it wherever you're training.
Best for regular training across any sport, lowest cost per serveDon't forget the other half of fuelling
Electrolytes replace what you sweat out. Carbs replace what you burn.
Past about 90 minutes of hard training, in any sport, sodium alone will not stop you fading. Gels and chews top up the carbohydrate your legs and lungs are burning, so you can dose salt and fuel separately instead of relying on a single mix to do both jobs.
