Gatorade Gx Sweat Patch records your sweat for smart rehydration with Gatorade

Gatorade has released a new fitness wearable named as Gx Sweat Patch that records your sweat and informs when you should get rehydrate after working out, the Gx Sweat Patch is sold in a package of two for $25 that pairs with Gatorade’s Gx app to record your activities and keep history of your performance.

The Gx Sweat patch (weighs just 1.25 ounces and measures 2.5in x 1.5 inches) is applied to your left inner arm before a workout, it slurps up the sweat as you move that funnels the fluid through a color-changing channel on the patch. After the workout, you use the Gx App to scan the patch that is able to offer insights of how much body fluid was lost and how much sodium need to be replenished to recover efficiently.

The pricing of one sweat patch for $12.5 seems expensive as one sweat patch can be used for just one workout, but Gatorade says that the sweat patches can be used for different workout as per the weather conditions.
