Sports energy drinks, if carefully selected, can help facilitate proper hydration
and extend athletic performance. Unfortunately, many of the beverages on the market today that claim to be energy drinks
are nothing more than glorified sugar water - you know the kinds that are prolific in all the grocery stores.
The Heart Rate Watch Company has intimate knowledge of the energy drinks that work because we have tested them and
used them in training and competition. Companies like Accelerade and Nathan provide products that really work well to
endurance athletes who are serious about their hydration and fueling requirements. If it is sold here then we have used
it and it works.
The importance of replacing electrolytes, sodium and other minerals lost during extended training and competition cannot be
understated. Drink early and often, well before you are thirsty - this is the mantra of proper hydration.
Most of the drinks and energy products we carry have patented formulations - there is your real tip that something different
is afoot. Plus, all of these products are actually used by world-class athletes in both training and in competition.
We strongly urge customers to try these energy drinks in their training to become accustomed and familiarized with
them - the dilution levels that work best and the dosing.
Of course post-ride recovery drinks are important as well. Making sure you recuperate well has a lot to do with how fast you replace
what was lost following exercise, along with proper stretching, massage and proper diet.
Even if you just train occasionally, energy drinks and proper hydration need to be part of your regiment in order to
perform the best you can because dehydration always results in under-performing, or worse, bonking.
