Nick Manning Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Very interesting, especially the bit about being like a kenyan and powerthirst containing crystal meth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted March 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Yeah great cos we've never seen them before.I don't really like bananas, any other suggestions but as Nick said this topic has turned quite interesting!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Manning Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Its not only that its interesting it's informative too. I didn't realise that just hydrating yourself by water, wasn't actually that great for you. But now I know.Learning something new everyday!

r2wtrials Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) Have a banana waaaay cheaper than lucozade etc and has loads of energy in. It also releases the energy over a more spread out time rather than a short burst what he said.... plus orange juice diluted with water about 50/50 is good. The idea of the sports drinks is to get into your system quickly to re-hydrate, you can see if it works by how coloured your piss is after a ride... the deeper the colour the more dehydrated you are!! ... or you have been drinking varnish again ... of course, i use multi vitimins, ibuprofen, expresso and a Jack Daniels before bed!!! And that is just to get through a normal day Edited March 16, 2009 by r2wtrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan GU Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 I find rockstar, monster energy and all them drinks make me get a energy buzz for a hour or so then i end up extremly tired, so i tend not to touch them now lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forteh Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Deeper? Lighter?The more yellow it is the more dehydrated you are. Go out to the pub, drink a few pints and your piss will be clear because youre full of liquids, wake up in the morning with a hangover (because of dehydration) and your piss will be yellow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonMack Posted March 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I did a bit of research today and found this, http://www.cptips.com/hmdesnk.htmI tried this one:Recipe #3 (using cups and quarts)4 tablespoons sugar1/4 teaspoon salt1/4 cup boiling water2 tablespoons lemon juice3-3/4 cups cold water1. In the bottom of a pitcher, dissolve the sugar and salt in the hot water.2. Add the juice and the remaining water; chill.Yield: 1 quartNutrition Information (per 8 ounces):Calories - 50carbohydrate 12 gramssodium 110 milligramspotassium 30 milligramsI mixed the sugar, salt, and boiling water in a measuring jug, then poured in the lemon juice, and then put it into a 1l bottle and filled it up with cold water. It was really warm, so I ended up drinking some as soon as I had ridden to the spot, then I drank more while riding, then saved some for when I got home, and usually by this time, even after a few hours riding, I would be aching, and my legs would hurt, but I havent noticed anything at all, infact I've felt really good all day.Gonna start making it more often I think, as it only took about 5 minutes and worked really well.

Captain Scarlet Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 I think I'm going to start investing in bananas when I go out riding. As for current, I eat and drink just about anything when riding (sometimes water, relentless or coke if there are any good deals going).Majority of it is unhealthy.I'm gonna give sport drink and bananas a go this year then.

Dave Lowe Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 Well you need to keep your self hydrated some how when your out, we are made up of about 75% fluid so water or lightly flavored water is good, the best thing to be doing is stocking up on foods like carbohydrates the night/day before a big ride, there is no point is trying to keep your self going on energy food and drink on the ride/exercise when the night before you just have crap food.
