Great question Mini, we have a great blog looking into this that will help you answer your question. Just head to our site and search 'Can you overdose on sports drink' in our knowledge hub! - JH

Hi @na-dk9vm, to avoid any gut issues, we recommend to sip on it throughout the hour, as you would take 3x PF 30 gels over the hour. It does not mean you have to constantly sip every 5 minutes but perhaps take on the gel every 20 mins or so in order to hit a 90g carb intake over the hour without causing any GI distress.

Science is pretty equivocal on the subject. It makes sense that pacing out your carb intake will help avoid potential gut issues that might rear their ugly head from consuming a large amount of carb in a short period. It will also help to maintain a steady supply of energy with no peaks and troughs. But what matters most is that you hit your numbers and that you do it in a way you can tolerate, so trying it in training is key

We see what you did there! Tres bien 👏

We're right with you on both counts 😎

Yep- it's epic! Chapeau!

Hi @techlaw997 if you head to our PF&H website and click the Contact Us option on the header menu you will find the link to locate your closest sweat test centre. You can also drop us an email from our website if you have further questions on the sweat test process. We dont offer any coaching but if you are looking for something specific (coaching or other services) then please do get in touch via our website and we should be able to help provide some recommendations/ options for you. 😀

We do see a lot of very sweaty athletes so if you want some advice, please do head on over to our knowledge hub or book a video call with one of the team. We can't stop you from sweating buckets, but we might be able to help with hydration and performance in the heat!

Sadly we can't give out freebies to everyone who asks, but if you go through our online Fuel and Hydration Planner you'll get access to a discounted Taster Pack so you can try small before going big (and long) :-)

@@precisionfandh sure thing I shall give it a go! Big 50k race coming up so happy to try out! Thanks

Hi Jilly, There's undeniably a skew towards male voices over female in this particular video, but we can assure you that this was not by design. This video was shot at Western States and it just happened to be the case that most of the athletes that we work with who attended that particular race were men. If you look at our case studies and athlete roster on our website, as well as our social media, hopefully you'd agree that we're fairly well-balanced when it comes to gender/sex. Of course, this is something we monitor and discuss as it's important to us. If you'd like to see Lauren's numbers broken down in their full glory, we published a case study of her race on our website and posted a summary graphic on Instagram, so do check those out!

Get a life jilly...

Do one Jill “why is it male runners” don’t like it watch something else this is the world we live in now people meaning about stuff like that do sad

Probably because they hate women

@@precisionfandh Thank you for your thoughtful reply!!!

Awesome to hear 👊

Hi @chadallen3794 thanks for the feedback! Noted and really stoked you are loving the content 🙌

@@precisionfandh I like it!

@@precisionfandhmusic was fine for me

😆🙌

Thank you!

Hi @_k5271 - thanks for the kudos on the content! This video was one of our originals which means it is 4 years young and so a valid point that the quality could be improved given how much technology has come on since 2020!

Thanks! Really glad it's hitting the spot. You're definitely not alone on the liquid carbs/ hungry front, so it sounds like a combination of liquids and solids would be a great strategy to try in training....

As far as carb and endurance performance is concerned, more is (generally) better but there are limits. The good news is that you can train your gut to consume more. Head on over to our Knowledge Hub to get the lowdown 🙌

@@precisionfandh thank you 🙏🏼 Is the “knowledge hub” on your website? I’m really enjoying the content on your channel btw, great job 👏🏼 I’ve just started testing out your complete range as I build up to Ironman Wales in September, and would love to get all of the “numbers” right as I build up towards my first DECA Ironman Triathlon next year, so really appreciate all of your help and support 🙏🏼

@@RecoveryLabTV it is! DECA- that's epic! You might want to book a hydration and fuelling strategy video call with one of the team too...just drop us line and we'll book you in 🤯

@@precisionfandh thank you 🙏🏼 I’ll check it out this evening. Yeah, I pick a challenge/event every year to push & develop myself & raise money for charity at the same time. A couple of weeks ago I completed my first continuous triple Ironman triathlon, raising money for the RNLI. Next years Deca will be helping the mental health charity Rock 2 Recovery UK as it’s their 10th anniversary. A video call sounds amazing! I’ll be in touch to arrange that as well. Thank you 🙏🏼

Ahhh... if keep your 👀 glued on our on our Social Media page and Newsletter on Monday you might just find out... 😉

We are always here to help if you would like support ahead of your next long hike! 😀

@@precisionfandh I appreciate your video. What I meant was that other videos on youtube seem to only fixate on "drink more water!" and from your video its clear that it isn't that simple
