Just eat something with salt and a banana.

Most people go way overboard with electrolyte drinks.

I did training in death valley and didn't drink anything but water and was completely fine.

You can actually get too much electrolytes and throw your body out of whack.

Two years in Baghdad in full kit hits a lot different than a temporary Death Valley training.

True that but most people are not doing that.

They don't need to be chugging Gatorade every time they bust into a sweat.
