Don't skimp out on nutrition during your ride, keeping hydrated and fueled will keep you going longer without bonking out. One of the best sellers we've had in recently is Tailwind.
Why we and our riders choose them..
ENDURANCE FUEL
COMPLETE ENERGY + ELECTROLYTES + HYDRATION
The composition of our fuel matches what the gut absorbs. Our Endurance Fuel is made with all-natural ingredients and organic flavors. It mixes crystal clear with water to meet your calorie, hydration, and electrolyte needs, no matter how big a day is in front of you.
BETTER ABSORPTION
Endurance Fuel’s glucose/sucrose fuel takes advantage of how our bodies absorb nutrients. The combination of fuel, electrolytes, and water has a synergistic effect, allowing the body to absorb more of each. Once in the bloodstream, the glucose fuels muscles directly, allowing athletes to go longer at higher intensities.
EASY ON THE GUT
Not all stomachs can handle the sticky sweetness or hard-to-digest molecules found in most nutrition products. Sipping Tailwind provides steady, small doses of fuel that pass right through the stomach. The composition of Tailwind’s fuel matches what the gut is made to absorb, so Tailwind enters your system quickly, without taxing the digestive tract.
WHAT ABOUT PROTEIN?
We researched it. We tested it. We asked experts about it, so you don’t have to. Protein during exercise doesn’t improve endurance, but it does correlate with GI distress. Studies show no significant endurance difference between carb-only and carb-protein drinks. Protein is a complex molecule that is hard to digest, potentially shutting down your digestive tract during exercise and causing stomach issues.
