So I've now tried every single flavor that they have, and so far I'm a pretty big fan. There's a few reasons for this, I love Gatorade as much as the next guy but sometimes you're just not really feeling like hitting your body with a ton of sugar, or you might not be working out for a really long time. So benefits of this include things like low cal, no sugar and what not. You've got a version that can give you about mild cups of coffee worth of caffeine (~65mg) which is always nice for zapping you awake in the morning.
So what do I think about it? Well the packaging is really sweet because it just comes in a tube that you can toss in a big, a locker, jersey pocket, more or less anywhere. You can mix it to however you like it, be it 1 tab for every 750ml, 1 and a half or even two. This makes it a lot easier to carry around then a giant tin of gatorade power. If they made it into tablets? I'd be all over that.
How does it work? Well personally I like it because it's not too sweet, goes down easy. Doesn't taste like crap or anything that's been sweetened with aspartame which I'm not a fan of. The only complain that I have is the one with the caffeine tastes a bit like red bull, and it smells like it too which I'm not a huge fan of. But still it goes down easily, nothing like the Red Bull that we all know. As for its working, I don't know how much of it is a placebo effect, but I didn't cramp as much. This might've also been because I wasn't running my face off as soon as I got started. They say the extra magnesium helps prevent it. I'm inclined to say I believe them because high5 does a ton of testing with their stuff. It comes in a few diff flavors; Citrus, Berry, Cherry-Orange and Xtreme Berry (Caffeinated). I like the citrus and berry runs.
So these tubes will run you around 7-8 bucks and will have 20 tablets to mix to your hearts desire. And you can get it at my favorite online shop like always.
~Cheers
