Take HYLYTES electrolyte capsules with water and have MORE ENERGY throughout your game and throughout the day, without the sugar or caffeine of sports drinks and energy drinks. 

What does playing baseball mean in the summer?  Heat, Heat and more Heat, and there is no place on the field to hide from the sun, especially during a double header. 

As you know, the length of the game is not in your control; and the game requires simultaneous sudden bursts of energy combined with concentration.  The games are often unpredictable and rarely the same, but you can tailor your intake of HYLYTES based on your game and the day.  Take HYLYTES electrolyte capsules with water during your game for enhanced endurance and to help you better withstand the heat and perform in the clutch in the last few innings. 

The difference between winning the game or losing it often comes down to less than a ½ step, and when the game is on the line, that ½ step can be the difference between being called “Safe” or “Out”.

We all know nutrition is NOT one-size-fits-all, and electrolytes in a capsule will work for all players, whether you weigh 130 lbs. or 230 lbs.  If you are the average size athlete, take one capsule per hour during your game or practice, if you are bigger then start with two capsules per hour.  Consider the factors (hot day or cool day, one game or a double header, your position (pitchers and catchers how many days in a row have you been playing, have you been traveling (flying is dehydrating)); you know your own body and you know what you need to do to maximize output, in the heat of the summer you may need to take two capsules or more per hour.  With electrolyte capsules you can tailor intake based on YOUR individual needs, and HYLYTES will make a difference in your game.  Don’t forget, the more water you drink, the more electrolytes you need. 

Have you ever had that bloated feeling after drinking a sports drink or water, making it difficult to run after a hit or chase down a fly ball?  That bloated feeling is a result of lack of electrolytes.  Electrolytes make sure the water you drink gets out of your stomach and into your body.  If you feel bloated with fluid stuck in your stomach…TWO things happen:

1. You cannot run or move as well as you could when the game started; and
2. The water is stuck in your stomach and not getting to your muscles, you get dehydrated, and you get tired faster…and that means you will not be playing your best.

 

Practice and Game Day Nutrition:
What you put in your body before your game often dictates performance in the first few innings.  What you put in your body during the first few innings dictates performance in the later stages of the game.  If you are loading up on sugar filled sports drinks that contain high fructose corn syrup (the cheapest form of processed sugar you can get), then you are likely experiencing a sugar crash 60 to 90 minutes later and that means you are not preparing yourself to play to the best of your ability when the game is on the line.  You worked too hard preparing for game day, don’t settle for an inferior sports drink that is short on electrolytes and long on sugar; give your body what it needs to outperform…HYLYTES with water for proper hydration means enhanced endurance…a.k.a.  ENERGY at the end of your game and beyond.

Why should you use HYLYTES today?

• With HYLYTES, you will be better hydrated and therefore you will have MORE ENERGY to get you through your game. 
• Proper hydration with HYLYTES will prevent dehydration, and that means you will be more ENERGIZED and more FOCUSED and less likely to make careless and costly mistakes.  Be aware of your hydration plan throughout your game, have more ENERGY and be better than you opponent.
• Post game…Re-hydrate faster with HYLYTES and you will be just as strong in tomorrow’s game as you were today.  Take one or two HYLYTES with a bottle of water after your game to re-hydrate and recover more effectively.
