Sport

As a decidedly amateur runner myself, I've learned not to concern myself with what the elites are doing. Trail running is a unique sport in that often times an overworked father of three with bad knees will toe the line with an ex-Div 1 Olympic hopeful, but we are not all running the same race. We a

First, make sure it’s not an issue with your bike that’s causing you to work harder than you have to. Low tire pressure and a dirty chain can slow you down a lot. If it’s not your bike then you want to make sure you’re taking care of your body. Make sure you’re eating enough, sleeping enough, and dr

I take a Nuun Sport Hydration tablet everyday, I find it a bit more potent and can tolerate the lemon/lime flavour for some reason (since I can’t go near an actual lemon or actual lime).

And, I'm not a fan of regular Gatorade at all because of the high levels of sugar. Like I said: people should do their own research. These days,

Hi! ADHD and diabetic here, so I feel you! I use a lot of flavoured sugar free crystal light (I'm in Canada). I also will cold steep different teas in a pitcher. I make a lot of my own teas and I have also found that if you add stevia leaves to your tea for sweetness you don't get the aftertaste you

Liquid IV is mostly sugar. It’s a drink flavor disguised as an electrolyte. Drink a real electrolyte designed for sports like Nuun, Scratch, LMNT, etc
