I have been doing keto bodybuilding for a month now and the cramps are becoming a real problem. I am waking up in the middle of the night with my calves locking up and I feel pretty weak during my heavy lifting sessions.
I have read that you need much more sodium, potassium, and magnesium when you are in ketosis because your body does not hold onto water the same way. I have been using some sea salt in my water but I do not think it is enough.
What are you all using for electrolytes? Do you use a specific supplement or do you just add a lot of salt to your food? I am in the US and I would love some recommendations for a good keto friendly electrolyte powder that does not have any hidden carbs or artificial sweeteners.
