Electrolyte Replacement (Alternatives To Gatorade)?
On long, hot rides, my fluid intake is roughly 75% water 25% Gatorade. That's a rough estimate, and the percentages vary depending on conditions - and how I feel.
The big advantage of Gatorade is that it's so freely available.
But on several rides, club members have recommended other products as being superior for electrolyte replacement. So:
- Do you have any recommendations besides Gatorade?
- Where do you get it?
- What does it cost?
- Any particular reason you recommend it over Gatorade?
Thanks!
