It lengthens the day, the weather is better, it motivates us more to train and we do it, we sign up for more competitions (running, marches, crossings, triathlon...) and we only focus on training, sometimes neglecting the alimentation and most of the time hydration.
It is a small thing that makes us not give up and even not finish our goal.
After 30 minutes of activity and more with these temperatures, it is advisable to add an isotonic drink to the water to replace electrolytes. It is not good to hydrate only with water or only with an isotonic drink.
When the activity is moderate and not high in pulsations with water and fruits it would be enough but when the activity is intense no matter how short it is in duration, to the water and fruits we must add the isotonic drink to replace salts that we lose with sweating.
Isotonic drinks There are many on the market, already diluted or in powder to prepare, but I am going to tell you my favorites, they are homemade and super quick to make.

- 1L of weak mineralized natural water
- 250 ml of sea water (treated)

- 1 or 2 tablespoons of sugar or honey (optional since it contains the lemon or orange juice that has fructose) Mix all the ingredients and refresh.
* 2nd RECIPE:
