This is the drink I use for races and harder training runs. For shorter training runs, I don't include the BCAA or Glutamine to save costs. Occasionally I find the addition of BCAA and Glutamine upset my digestion, so I sometimes leave them out. Read more at Nutrient Timing
- 2x Scoops Gatorade powder (normal dilution)
- An alternative is to use 1 scoop of Gatorade and the equal weight of Maltodextrose (AKA Maltodextrin), which is more easily absorbed and much cheaper. I get mine at http://store.honeyvillegrain.com/maltodextrin50lb.aspx for less than $1 per pound.
- 6x Tablespoons Protein Powder (Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard - Vanilla Flavor)
- Optional - 1x Tablespoons BCAA Powder (5g)
- Optional - 1x Teaspoon Glutamine Powder (5g)
- Half Teaspoon Salt
- Water to Two Quarts
