At Hip & Healthy, we’re always talking about the pillars of wellbeing; movement, nutrition, recovery but there’s one essential that often gets overlooked: hydration. And not just any hydration. While water is, of course, vital, it’s only part of the picture. True hydration means replenishing the electrolytes your body loses daily through exercise, stress, travel, and even just getting on with a busy life. That’s where Phizz comes in. Whether you’re gearing up for race day or simply powering through your everyday routine, hydrating with Phizz is a simple, effective way to feel and perform at your best.
As someone currently deep in training for the Hackney Half Marathon this May, which, by the way is the race you want to do if, like me, you want to run with normal people who have to fit training around their busy lives – families, work, social life etc. I’ve been thinking a lot about how to support my body beyond just logging miles in between work meetings. Training isn’t just about the run, it’s about what you do before, during, and after. I’ve been using Phizz as part of my daily routine, and it’s made a noticeable difference to my energy levels, recovery, and focus. From early morning runs to long working days, it’s become a non-negotiable in my routine, an easy win that helps me stay one step ahead.
Why Electrolytes Matter Every Day
Electrolytes are often associated with intense sweat sessions or endurance events, but in reality, they’re essential for daily wellbeing. They play a crucial role in supporting mental clarity, reducing brain fog, maintaining natural energy levels, and aiding muscle recovery. They also contribute to skin health, immune function and overall vitality.
As Dr Paul Anastasiades, PhD Neuroscientist and Co-Founder of Phizz, explains, “Electrolytes are unsung heroes of daily health. When your body is properly hydrated with sufficient electrolyte levels, you think clearer, feel more awake, and perform at your best, whether you’re at the gym, going for a run, at work, or traveling.”
And when it comes to training, hydration becomes even more critical. Dehydration is one of the fastest ways to derail your workout, reducing muscle strength, slowing reaction times, and increasing perceived effort. It also forces your heart to work harder and lowers your aerobic capacity. In short: it makes everything feel more difficult than it needs to be.
Hydrate Smarter, Not Just More
This is where Phizz’s Daily 3-in-1 formula really stands out. Designed as an all-in-one hydration solution for daily use, it hydrates three times faster than water alone while delivering seven key electrolytes and 18 essential vitamins. From boosting your natural energy levels, mental focus and mood, to supporting muscle function, it’s a powerful addition to your daily routine and one that requires zero effort. Simply drop a tablet into water, and you’re good to go.
I tend to start my day with a glass of Phizz, especially on run days, to ensure I’m properly hydrated before I even lace up my trainers. It’s also become a go-to mid-afternoon pick-me-up, particularly when that familiar energy dip hits. Instead of reaching for another coffee, I’ll opt for Phizz and feel instantly more refreshed and focused.
Fuel Your Training with Sustained Energy
For those moments when you need an extra boost, whether that’s a long training run or a demanding day, Phizz Daily Energy is a brilliant addition. It combines the brand’s signature hydration formula with a high-strength B-vitamin complex, helping your body convert food into energy while reducing tiredness and fatigue.
What sets it apart is its blend of fast- and slow-release caffeine, including guarana extract (which contains three times more caffeine than coffee but releases it more gradually). Each tablet delivers 75mg of caffeine, providing sustained energy without the sharp spikes and crashes you might get from traditional energy drinks.
I’ve been using Phizz Daily Energy ahead of longer runs or particularly busy days, and it’s been a game-changer, helping me stay energised, focused, and consistent in my training.
Making Hydration Part of Your Daily Routine
One of the best things about Phizz is how effortlessly it fits into your lifestyle. It’s not about overhauling your routine, it’s about enhancing it. Keep a tube in your bag, your desk drawer, or near your glasses. Use it first thing in the morning, post-workout, or during that mid-afternoon slump.
With a range of flavours, from Orange and Mango to Mixed Berry and Lemon, it’s as enjoyable as it is effective. Phizz Daily 3-in-1 is available from major supermarkets nationwide (RRP £8 for 20 tablets), while Phizz Daily Energy can be found in stores including Waitrose and Tesco (also £8 for 20 tablets).
So whether you’re training for your next race, like I am, or simply looking to feel sharper, stronger, and more energised day to day, the message is simple: your daily routine? Hydrate with Phizz.
