At Babylon CrossFit, we talk a lot about training hard, recovering smart, and showing up consistently. But there’s one piece of the performance puzzle that often gets overlooked: sleep.
For many people, the hardest part of the day actually begins at night. Falling asleep can take longer than it should. Staying asleep feels inconsistent. And waking up refreshed? That can feel like luck more than anything else.
That’s why we’re excited to highlight a new addition to our retail lineup: Thorne Magnesium Glycinate—a simple, science-backed way to support better rest, recovery, and overall performance.
Why Magnesium Matters
Magnesium is one of the most important minerals in the body, involved in hundreds of biochemical processes. It plays a key role in:
It also helps regulate neurotransmitters that calm the brain—making it essential for quality sleep.
The catch? Many people aren’t getting enough magnesium through diet alone. And even mild deficiencies can impact how your body handles stress, recovers from workouts, and winds down at night.
Not All Magnesium is Created Equal
When it comes to supplementation, form matters.
Magnesium glycinate (also called bisglycinate) is a highly absorbable form where magnesium is bound to glycine—an amino acid known for its calming properties. This combination makes it:
In other words, it’s built for recovery.

Why This Matters for the BC Community
At Babylon CrossFit, we push intensity—but we also emphasize recovery. Sleep is where your body adapts, repairs, and gets stronger.
Adding something as simple as magnesium glycinate to your nighttime routine can help support:
And sometimes, the smallest habits make the biggest difference.
