More information

How does luktsalt work?

Luktsalt works by inhaling ammonia vapor, which irritates the airways and activates the body's alarm response. This leads to increased adrenaline production, a higher heart rate, and improved blood circulation to the muscles. It has long been used by strength athletes to prepare for heavy lifts.

What does luktsalt do?

Luktsalt releases ammonia (NH3) gas, which triggers an inhalation reflex (i.e., causes the muscles that control breathing to work faster) by irritating the mucous membranes in the nose and lungs. This makes you more focused, alert, and able to perform better.

When should you use luktsalt?

You can use our luktsalt in many different situations. For example, when you use it during strength training, you can use it before your heaviest lift, for example, if you are aiming to set a new personal best in deadlifts. Smell it, feel the effect, and then lift immediately. For other forms of training, such as ice hockey, you can smell it just before you go out onto the ice to get that extra invigorating effect.

How is Smelling Salt used?

Smelling Salt has become an increasingly common feature in training contexts, especially among strength athletes and others who want to maximize their performance. The actual effect of luktsalt is based on the intense scent. This strong scent irritates the nasal mucous membranes and leads to an increased breathing rate, as well as the body reacting with increased alertness and focus.

In the world of sports, Smelling Salt is often used just before a heavy lift, an important sprint, or a decisive moment in a match. In this way, the athlete can feel mentally sharp and ready to give their all. For strength athletes, for example, it might involve quickly sniffing Smelling Salt before a max lift in deadlifts or squats, which provides an immediate, but short-lived, energy boost.

Are there risks with using luktsalt?

Since luktsalt only produces a small amount of ammonia gas, no negative health problems have been reported. If a high concentration of ammonia is inhaled too close to the nostril, it can cause a burning sensation in the nose or in the oral mucous membrane.

The use of Smelling Salt to revive individuals injured during sports is not recommended, as it can inhibit or delay a proper and thorough neurological assessment by medical personnel, e.g., after a concussion where hospitalization may be necessary. The irritating nature of ammonia can cause reflexes in the body which, in turn, could potentially worsen spinal injuries. It is therefore now prohibited in most boxing competitions.

Use Smelling Salts at the gym

Smelling Salts is a chemical substance that produces a strong odor when it comes into contact with air. It is usually packaged in a small jar, and one holds it under the nose when wanting to get extra energy.

It is common to use luktsalt at the gym to give oneself extra energy during a heavy workout, or to increase focus and concentration before an important lift. Some people use Smelling Salts at the gym as a form of mental psychological trick to increase their will to perform. By inhaling the strong smell, one can get a feeling of being awake and alert, which can increase the motivation to perform.
