I’m always looking for a way to amp up my workout.  After all, I figure that if I’m gonna get my booty to the gym, and spend precious time and energy on the myriad of activities that make me sweat and deplete my electrolytes, I may as well take it as far as I can.

So, when I came across Bob Harper’s recipe for making your own electrolyte drink, I mixed it into my workout routine immediately.  The result?  A natural, inexpensive, workout booster.  It’s effects compare with all those candy-colored sports drinks that are full of sugar and other random ingredients, but this all natural concoction is all good for your bodacious bod.

Simply mix the following ingredients together and drink.

Yields 1 Liter

1 liter water
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 Tbsp. sea salt
2 Tbsp. agave nectar
(I like to add the juice of 1/2 a lemon for a little extra zing)
