New sponsorship for 2016! My go to absolute favorite nutrition company - INFINIT!!!

In triathlon it is called the fourth discipline.  It is the one discipline that can make or break your race.  Nailing your nutrition provides you the opportunity to set a new PR and also to make you crawl on your hands and knees to the finish line.  The thing about nutrition is that it is highly individualized.  Now, there are some general guidelines on servings and of minerals and carbs you should consume during the race.  For example, the general guidelines that should be followed during race are:
  1. Sports drinks should be around 6-8% mixture of carbohydrates.
  2. 60-70 grams/hour of mixed carbohydrates
  3. 500-700mg of sodium per liter
  4. 20-24 fl. oz per hour of water or INFINIT drink mix
So those are all really good guidelines to follow but the problem with those is that they don't take into account that EVERYBODY IS DIFFERENT.  It is always interesting to see results of sweat tests and how much they can differ.  I was listening to a podcast the other day, Endurance Planet, and Tawnee Prazak was discussing her sweat test results.  She compared it to her fiancee and the difference in sweat composition was extremely different.  Tawnee's fiancee had 5x more sodium in his sweat compared to Tawnee.  That is a huge difference that wouldn't be addressed by other sports drinks.  INFINIT realizes how different people are so they came up with this Custom Blended Formula.  Athletes can talk one on one with a specialist to determine your needs and give you a custom mix of minerals, carbs, and caffeine to get you optimized.  You can get started with a quick survey about your preferences here.  After you complete that chat with a specialist to make sure you got everything optimized.

When you are all done getting your nutrition optimized, treat yourself to 10% off using the coupon code below.
  • Coupon code for 10% off all orders: COLIN-K
If you are one that likes to stick with one product I urge you to at least try the sample pack.  $18 for 5 servings and a super sick INFINIT water bottle.
