Description
FiT CarboTrain™ is an efficient, pleasant tasting, easily assimilated, high value powder drink developed especially to prevent cumulative glycogen depletion while simultaneously supporting the immune system by including a full complement of electrolytes, vitamins, MSM, L-Glutamine & L-Taurine. Immune system support is an especially important feature for any athlete.
FiT CarboTrain™ may be used daily on an indefinite basis without developing a “tolerance” factor to specialised performance enhancing ingredients (e.g. herbs) as contained in some other products. FiT CarboTrain™ is suitable for pre race “carbo loading”, and makes an excellent race drink as well, although is the first choice for competition use.
Few endurance athletes are aware that daily training for as little as one hour per day at above about 70% of Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) without additional nutrition can result in cumulative glycogen (high intensity energy store) depletion, even when consuming a high carbohydrate diet. I.e. the body simply cannot recover fully between training sessions, resulting in a downward spiral which results in low energy levels, sore muscles, weight loss, opportunistic illnesses etc. This negatively affects training quality, athletic improvement and also health.
FiT CarboTrain™ is suitable for Oral Hydration and certain Diabetics under exercise induced conditions.

Recommended Use
NORMAL USE / TRAINING
Mix 2 rounded scoops (approx 20g) per 250ml of water. About 750ml (6 scoops) should be consumed per hour of training / race time. Drinking must commence within the first 15 minutes. Consume within 5 hours of preparation & do not prepare the day before consumption.
CARBO LOADING
Mix as above. Consume 8 to 12 scoops (10g per scoop) per day for 2 to 3 days prior to the event. Spread throughout the day. Ensure sufficient fluid (water) intake to prevent possible gastro-intestinal discomfort. Also eat high CHO foods such as rice, pasta and potatoes.
RACING
FiT CarboTrain™ makes an effective Race Fuel, but higher performance alternatives include implementing the Race Pack or for ultimate ride enjoyment & race performance.
POST TRAINING & RECOVERY
Consume 4 scoops in approx 500ml of water within 10 to 60 minutes of completing a training session. This is especially important if no carbohydrate replacement took place during the session. If your session was longer than 2 hours take a second serving about 45 minutes after the first one.
Note: is especially designed for post training and racing recovery.
