Hydration That Hits Harder

Hydration + Performance

If you move your body, hydration decides how well you show up. From gym sessions and weekend runs to long shifts and busy days, KIU Water is built for people who live active, physical lives — not just pros.

Why Hydration Is Non-Negotiable

Dehydration doesn’t wait until you’re exhausted — it starts stealing performance early. Less water means thicker blood, higher heart rate, faster fatigue, and slower reactions. KIU Water exists to keep you hydrated, locked in, and performing harder—every day.

Sustained Energy

Hydration helps you avoid energy crashes, so you can keep moving without hitting a wall.

Reliable Strength

Stay stronger from start to finish—hydration helps prevent drop-off so you can keep going.

Sharper Focus

Mild dehydration slows reaction time and decision-making — hydration keeps your head in the game.

Faster Recovery

Water supports nutrient delivery, waste removal, and temperature control so you’re ready to go again.

Why it matters: Even mild dehydration quietly erodes performance. Stay ahead of fluid loss to move longer, push harder, and perform at your best when it matters.

Hydration Baseline • Performance Threshold

The Hydration Baseline: Where Performance Starts to Drop

You don’t need to be "severely dehydrated" for things to fall apart. Performance drops show up early — and they add up.

💧
1–2%

Early performance loss
Bodyweight loss from sweat can increase perceived effort and reduce endurance output.

💪
~3%

Strength & power drop
Linked to measurable drops in strength, power, and repeat effort capacity.

🧠
5%

Mental & work capacity decline
Can reduce physical work capacity by up to 30% and impair decision-making.

🔥
Heat Strain

Higher cardiovascular stress
Same pace. Higher heart rate. Higher core temperature. Hydration keeps stress lower.

Built for Real Training

This isn’t elite-only hydration. This is for people who sweat, push, lift, run, ride, grind, and repeat. If your body works hard, water needs to work harder.

🚴 Cycling

Long rides drain fluids quietly. Stay hydrated to hold power, control heart rate drift, and finish strong — not empty.

🏊‍♂️🏃 Triathlon

Three sports. One body. Dehydration stacks fast — hydration keeps transitions sharp and legs alive.

🏋️ Gym & Strength

Hydration supports muscle contraction, joint health, pump, and recovery between heavy sets.

🏃 Running

When fluids drop, effort spikes. Hydration helps stabilize pace, breathing, and heat control.
