Hydration

There are numerous sports drinks on the market. Our generic advise: Choose the one you are most likely to consume. Follow the dosage guidelines on the packaging.

Side note: If you don’t like ready made sports drinks make your own. Dilute 300 ml/10.5 fluid ounces of orange juice with around the same amount of water. This will make a drink that has the same concentration of carbohydrates as an energy drink, 5-7%, which studies show to be the optimal concentration for absorption of fluid and energy.
