Fit an aero-bottle and two normal bottle cages to your bike. Fill your aero-bottle and one 750ml drink bottle with ready-to-drink Energy Drink.

Then add one measure (2.2cm) of syrup to produce 550ml of ready to-drink Energy Drink. The syrup will mix easily into the water, but before using gently blow down the drinking tube of your aero-bottle. The bubbles will ensure that your drink is well mixed. This whole mixing operation can be completed one-handed.

Ingested Protein also causes insulin to be released, and, with the right carbs and protein, in the right ratio (4 Carbs to 1 Protein) the gastric emptying speed is not slowed and there is a larger insulin response resulting in more carbohydrate (energy) being ‘driven’ into the working muscles during exercise. The more carbs i.e. energy, going into the working muscles the more endurance you will have. Directions for Use Our new low GI Energy Drink has also been enhanced with Ocean Minerals.

When you finish These Ironman Nutrition guidelines should provide your body with the maximum amount of carbohydrate it can absorb and you should not need additional solid food.

Carbohydrate is your high-energy fuel for endurance events. It will help you go faster and further. Unfortunately, you only have a limited amount stored in your body and it’s depleted after less than two hours of swimming, cycling or running. Carbohydrate re-fuelling will substantially extend your endurance by providing the extra energy you need. You’ll enjoy your event more and feel stronger, particularly later on. You can consume energy bars, gels and drinks for carbohydrate. Energy Drink Caffeine Hit contains only natural flavourings and no colourings or artificial sweeteners. Energy Drink with Protein is the right product for periods of hard training, multi-day endurance events and when you anticipate a big step up in training intensity or volume, such as a training camp. Take two Energy Gel or Energy Gel Aqua sachets with 200-300ml water or ZERO around 15 minutes before the start. This is your fuel for the swim. Alternatively, you can also drink 500ml Energy Drink which contains both carbohydrate and electrolytes. It can get hot in a wetsuit so making sure you’re hydrated is important. During the ride

It may seem an obvious conclusion that the more carbohydrate you consume during an event the more energy your muscles will have available. But take care! Research suggests that if you consume more than 60g per hour of the carbohydrate found in traditional sport drinks, it will not be absorbed. This is the maximum amount of carbohydrate that can cross the wall of your intestine and get into your blood stream. When running, it’s easiest to get your carbohydrate from gel. You can take up to three sachets of Energy Gel or Energy Gel Aqua per hour. This will give you around 60g of carbohydrate per hour. If you have caffeine loaded, then one gel should be the Caffeine variant to keep you in the caffeine performance zone. Any remaining gel should be standard gel with no caffeine.
