Highly effective endurance supplement
So the flavor is not the best, it reminds me of a dull pedialyte, but it's effectiveness is unreal. I started looking into electrolyte supplements after studying a bit of sports nutrition recently and am a strong advocate for electrolytes over caffeine now. It refreshes your muscles by replacing electrolytes lost through sweat and their purpose it to assist with the contraction of muscles. They help to prevent injury by keeping muscles hydrated and prolonging the onset of potential muscle cramps; actually I have yet to experience a muscle cramp while using this supplement.<br />Over the past few months/bottles of using this product I'd say the most effective means is to put one serving in a powered zero sugar sports drink for a more rounded electrolyte diversity and for the added B vitamins to assist with metabolism under stress (also it tastes a lot better). When you feel like you're running on empty and want to see how far you can go, slam the whole thing and you'll feel the difference; it's not like a caffeine high, it's different, it's like your muscles say "who's up for round two." For me personally I'll drink about 1/3 of the powerade mix every 30mins and continuously drink water in between (it does suppress your desire to drink water so you do need to be more mindful of this). It is more of an endurance product and by that I mean I generally only use it when I know my routine will exceed 1 hour (usually1-2 hours cardio followed by an additional hour of weightlifting). Outside of general workouts, it's great for hiking as well because one serving in a 2L hydropack lasts me 3 hours comfortably at moderate pace on an intermediate-advsnced trail. Also it's a great hangover preventer and/or hangover relief (random find). Again the flavor isn't the best but highly effective and I have already strongly recommended this product to family and friends.
