How to Help Your Workers Stay Productive, Even in Hot Weather
There’s no doubt about it – summer is on its way. If your crew has to brave the summer heat, that may mean longer breaks and increased exhaustion from the heat, which in turn leads to lower efficiency.
However, with the proper preparation, you can actually maintain productivity levels while safeguarding your workers’ health.
Have you ever felt like you’ve been run over by a truck after a long day working in the heat.? That’s the feeling you get when you’re low on electrolytes.
Electrolytes are essential vitamins and minerals that the body needs to stay strong and alert. When you perspire, electrolytes are lost along with the water.
That’s why workers who sweat need more than water – they need electrolyte replacement as well. Maintaining healthy levels of water and electrolytes keeps the body working at maximum efficiency and promotes long-term health in the form of stronger bones and muscles.
This is why we recommend Sqwincher, a sports drink specially formulated to replenish essential electrolytes and water, with a great taste that will have workers eager to stay hydrated. Benefits of Sqwincher include:
• Maximum hydration – Isotonically formulated so your body absorbs water better, faster
• Build (and keep) strong muscles – Replace essential elements like calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium that are lost through sweat
• Keep energy levels up – Restore electrolytes to avoid fatigue
• Great taste – Say goodbye to the days of chugging drinks you don’t like in order to stay hydrated!
Providing the right drink to workers doesn’t just protect their health – it helps them maintain energy levels so they can get more work done.

How Sqwincher Keeps Muscles Strong
Do you know that you could be hurting you muscles by drinking water when you exercise? Sqwincher explains the science behind strong muscles and activity drinks, and why it matters to you.
What Happens When I Sweat?
It’s an unavoidable fact that when people spend time in high-heat environments, they sweat. Most people believe that when we sweat we just lose water. Humans can easily sweat out several pounds of water in a day when put in the right circumstances. Unfortunately, drinking lots of water isn’t the ideal solution to stay hydrated.
When You Sweat, You Lose Far More Than Water.
When a person sweats, they lose all sorts of essential vitamins and minerals. These vital combinations of minerals are usually referred to as “electrolytes”, and comprise a group of substances that keep your body healthy. In the short term, a low electrolyte balance means that you will feel a distinct lack of energy, lose focus on the task at hand, and sometimes even experience dizziness.
Calcium is a key player in the electrolyte group. Lack of calcium can weaken your bones over time, especially in women. Sqwincher products help replace the calcium in your body to protect you while you work hard.
In the long term, lack of electrolytes can weaken your muscle tissue and your bones.
Sqwincher Helps Me Build Muscle Mass?
We can’t turn you into Popeye, but we will help you maintain your muscles and bones rather than letting them deteriorate. This is especially great news if you are planning to use Sqwincher while you work out. Drinking Sqwincher when you run, play tennis, or hit the gym means that you’ll keep those hard earned gains rather than letting them slip away due to lack of proper hydration.
Sqwincher Products Protect and Replenish Your Muscles Over Time.
Don’t let all that hard-earned muscle mass slip away. With Sqwincher products, you’ll maintain and build on your bones and muscles, so you can have a strong and happy life.
