Sports Drink Sabotage

Hey you! Freeze, don't take another sip! Put that sports drink down and slowly walk away. Walk away from your old sports drink.

Your sports drink might be deadly and holding you hostage - calorically  (invented that word)  speaking.

Have you ever read the nutritional label on the bottle? Yeah Lance, it says 50 calories. Well, you aren't reading carefully! That's 50 calories per serving and a 20 oz. bottle of most vitamin enhanced water has 2.5 servings.

So what can we do to avoid sabotaging all of our hard work, effort, sweat, and hours of exercise and still get hydrated with flavor and vitamins?

  Propel Fitness Water has everything you are looking for without the caloric choke hold and inspired this post by their very smart t.v.commericalspot. It's like they took the words out of my mouth.

I like that its calorically (there it is again)  conscious and not syrupy like other sports drinks. To me, I would drink Propel 5 times a week - maybe 7 if we are talking about their lemon flavor. On a strength training day, I use it for a flavor pick-me-up during my warm-up. Since I hate cardio days, I drink it as a hydration reward after a session of sweat.
