Isotonic Etixx 1000g Lemon

During the exercise, our   sweat helps us   regulate body temperature. This fluid loss can be   detrimental to performance   and therefore athletes must make up for it with their chosen beverage and replace lost fluids.  When we sweat   we lose key electrolytes   such as potassium and magnesium which are essential for performance. In addition, they must also be replenished to stimulate fluid retention and the feeling of thirst. In addition, performance in prolonged exercise depends on the   muscle glycogen availability   and so it is important to take carbohydrates during exercise to replenish fuel reserves.

If carbohydrates are not consumed during prolonged or intense efforts, muscle glycogen stores will be depleted after approx. about 90 min. of effort.  The amount of carbohydrates that you should take during exercise will depend on the duration and intensity of the training or competition.

Exercises <1h (15): it is not necessary to consume carbohydrates during exercise.

Exercises 1-2h: 30 g of carbohydrates per hour of exercise (~ 500 ml Isotonic).

Exercises 2-3h: 60 g of carbohydrates per hour of exercise (~ 1 L Isotonic).

Exercises> 2.5-3h: up to 90 g of carbohydrates for every hour of exercise. (~ Up to 1.5 L Isotonic).
