Sports drinks...

Hey - I have a quick question... my husband and i are having a bit of a debate about the value of sports drinks and training. I have to admit that I'm somewhat fond of drinking gatorade whilst training and I do feel that it enhances my performance. My hubbie, however, a staunch pragamatist, thinks that sports drinks are nothing but gimics (for example, he's ex-army and his advice to those who want to 'get fit' is to find a hill and run up and down it until exhausted- don't talk about it, do it is his favourite motto). Any thoughts anyone??

  • I found the best prices on Accelerade at outletnutrition.com, plus free shipping. I have to say it is the best performance drink I've used but it tastes awful. So bad, in fact, that I've shifted back to Gatorade, which is a lot cheaper as well. I drank that Red Bull stuff a few times and had some interesting hallucinations the rest of the morning.
