Fuelling success with Body Armour

bodyarmour

Where long shifts and physically demanding work are the norm, nutrition and hydration aren’t just important, they’re essential for safety and performance. Fatigue is a definite if miners (our industrial athletes) aren’t getting the fuel their bodies need to perform the physically taxing requirements of their on-site jobs.

Body Armour is an Australian company specialising in evidence-based recovery formulas that assist with hydration, nutrition and even sleep. The products are specifically designed to equip the mining industry’s hard workers with what they need to conquer every day on the job.

The power of quality sleep

The feeling of slow cognitive function and lethargy on a mine site can be a serious risk to workers. Research tells us that insufficient rest and recovery significantly increases the likelihood of accidents on-site, some of which can have irreversible consequences. While workers have a responsibility to themselves and their colleagues to prioritise their sleep and recovery time, many may need additional assistance and support to achieve optimal rest and performance.

Mining companies have a legislative responsibility to manage workers’ fatigue and prevent exhaustion, responsibility shaped by the hard lessons of past accidents. Body Armour’s products fight fatigue and protect workers through the power of clean, natural nutrition that enhances performance without relying on artificial stimulants, excessive sugar or unnecessary additives. The products prioritise long-term health, sustainable energy and alertness throughout the working day.

Nutrition & key ingredients

Body Armour offers hydration products in sachet, icy pole, can and concentrate form which are creatine-based and non-caffeinated. Also in Body Armour’s product line are nutritional products with ingredients such as magnesium and ashwagandha which are clinically proven to improve stages of sleep including rapid eye movement (REM) and deep sleep.

With a focus on clean, natural nutrition tailored to the unique challenges of the Australian mining industry, Body Armour offers solution-driven products that support workers through long, demanding shifts.

A product line designed to help optimise performance while reducing the risks associated with mining work, Body Armour is knocking down the hurdles faced by workers in the industry one-by-one, helping workers stay safer, stronger and more resilient every day.
