Why Tailwind is the optimal product for endurance sports
A SPORTS DRINK THAT CONTAINS EVERYTHING YOU NEED
Tailwind Endurance Fuel combines nutrition, hydration and electrolytes in a functional sports drink that won't weigh you down. Unlike many other sports drinks, Tailwind is designed to help you avoid the problems you often encounter during long-distance events like marathons and ultras.
In this article, we'll explain how Tailwind helps you go further and stay energized.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED: ENERGY + ELECTROLYTES + LIQUID
You can forget about gels, bars and pills. Tailwind contains everything you need for a long run and is therefore cheaper than the traditional sports drink + gels + bars + this and that set-ups.
Tailwind Endurance Fuel powder mixes easily with water and meets your calorie, fluid and electrolyte needs no matter what your race or training day looks like. Tailwind is intentionally neutral in taste, with athletes describing the taste as “clean” and “light.” Neutral flavors aid in absorption and make it pleasant to consume during long runs when anything sweet can be a turn-off.
Tailwind is also a favorite with your hydration pack. Tailwind dissolves quickly and completely when in contact with water. The hydration reservoir is easy to clean by rinsing under running water. No stickiness or unpleasant aftertaste.
A BETTER ABSORPTION
Tailwind's optimal combination of glucose and sucrose (cane sugar) promotes the absorption of nutrients into your body. Tailwind's composition is optimized for extremely efficient absorption. When the glucose enters the bloodstream, it provides energy directly to the muscles, allowing you to maintain a higher intensity for longer.
Tailwind's electrolyte composition is as close to your sweat as possible. Tailwind is really all you need. You don't need separate electrolyte tablets.
A SPORTS DRINK THAT'S GENTLE ON YOUR STOMACH
Not everyone's stomach can handle the sticky sweetness or slow-absorbing sugars found in most sports drinks.
Many ultra runners in particular have experienced this, and luckily for me, the only reminder of the disaster is a video of me vomiting in front of a live stream camera during a 24-hour race. When you take Tailwind in small doses continuously, you get a steady, moderate dose of energy that is quickly absorbed into your muscles.
Is Tailwind really made with only natural ingredients? Yes. It's crystal clear when mixed with water, tastes light and clean, so you can drink it all day long. No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.
