Hydration & Focus Electrolytes + Nootropics (30 Stick Packs)
Most hydration drinks mask fatigue with sugar and caffeine. RITHM uses 5 key electrolytes + nootropics to keep you sharp from first whistle to final buzzer.
Third Party Tested
30-Day Guarantee
The Science
- Athletes lose 0.5–1.5L of fluid per hour during intense activity
- Drop 500–1500mg of sodium per hour
- Mental fatigue sets in before physical
- Advanced electrolytes for rapid hydration
- Nootropics for sharp mental clarity
- Reduced fatigue in the second half
RITHM is manufactured in a FDA registered facility and every batch is tested by ISO/IEC 17025 accredited third party labs for purity and microbiological safety before it ships.
What the Athletes are Saying
William
Bye to Cramping
"Before, I started cramping almost every game and at least once a week during practice. My coach gave me RITHM to take and I haven't cramped since."
Dante Franco
TASTE 100
"It actually tastes really good. Like I want to drink it on the regular. Tropical Mango!"
Jayden
Game Changer
"I'm telling you I feel like I get through a workout without crashing and I feel so much better at the end. Locked in from start to finish!"
DK #0
My halftime stack
"Every halftime or mid workout I down a stick pack. I feel my focus improve and my energy. No second half slumps. Highly recommend."

Electrolyte Science
Why Sodium?
- Fluid Balance — regulates water retention and distribution across cells, keeping you hydrated during intense activity
- Muscle Function — every contraction depends on sodium to transmit nerve-to-muscle signals
- The Primary Loss — sodium is lost in far greater quantity through sweat than any other electrolyte, which is why it carries the highest dose in the formula
Electrolyte Science
Why Potassium?
- Nerve Signaling — works opposite sodium across the cell membrane to power muscle contractions
- Cramp Prevention — low potassium alongside low sodium is considered a primary driver of exercise-related muscle cramping
- Studied In Combination — a study in elite soccer players found potassium citrate alongside magnesium and calcium citrate improved repeated-sprint performance
Electrolyte Science
Why Magnesium?
- Muscle Function — required for normal contraction and relaxation, commonly linked to cramping when low
- Gentle Chelate Form — bound to glycine for better absorption and less digestive upset than harsher forms like magnesium oxide
- Part Of The Blend — contributes toward daily intake as part of the full electrolyte profile, not a standalone high-dose supplement
Electrolyte Science
Why Calcium?
- Muscle Contraction — calcium ions trigger the troponin complex behind every muscle contraction
- Hormone Regulation — helps regulate parathyroid hormone (PTH), which affects muscle function when elevated
- The Quiet Electrolyte — you won't feel it working, but it's active on every contraction throughout the game

Game Day Protocol
The RITHM
Hydration Protocol
Most athletes drink water at halftime. Elite athletes hydrate strategically. Here's when and how to use RITHM for maximum performance.
1-2 Hours Before Tip-Off
Load Up Before You Sweat
Hydration starts before you step on the court. Pre-loading electrolytes means your body starts the game already primed — not playing catch-up.
30 Minutes Before Game
Activate Focus & Readiness
Warm-up is when your nootropics start working. The tyrosine and L-theanine in RITHM need 20–30 minutes to reach peak effectiveness.
Halftime
Recharge for the Second Half
This is where most athletes lose the game — not on the scoreboard, but in their hydration. The second half belongs to whoever refuels smartest.
Within 30 Minutes Post-Game
Recover Faster. Go Again.
Recovery hydration is the most overlooked part of any athlete's routine. What you do in the 30 minutes after the final buzzer sets up how you feel tomorrow.
Hydration FAQ
Even mild dehydration can have a noticeable effect on performance. Losing as little as 1–2% of body weight through sweat can reduce concentration, reaction time, memory, and decision-making. For athletes, this can show up as slower reads, missed assignments, unforced turnovers, poor shooting, or feeling mentally drained late in games and practices. Staying hydrated helps support both physical output and mental sharpness when the game gets tough.
Athletes lose more than just water when they sweat. Sodium, potassium, magnesium, and other electrolytes are lost during exercise and need to be replaced to support hydration, muscle function, endurance, and recovery. Many athletes can lose between 500–1500 mg of sodium per hour depending on sweat rate, intensity, and heat. Without enough electrolytes, cramping, fatigue, sluggishness, and reduced performance can become more common.
RITHM was built to support more than hydration alone. Ingredients like taurine, tyrosine, and L-theanine were included to help support focus, mental clarity, and composure under pressure. As fatigue sets in, athletes often struggle with slower decisions, poor concentration, and mental mistakes. By combining electrolytes with nootropic ingredients, RITHM is designed to help athletes stay sharp from pre-game through the final whistle.
