Am i right in assuming that most of you have all tried a number of different sports drinks, protein shakes, endura, powders (and not the white kind you make lines with using your credit card on the coffee table...naughty naughty) to determine what works well for your performance, energy levels and recovery? Well i certainly have!! With all the different weekend and week long sporting tournaments i have competed in, long rides, runs, football/soccer/rugby games, triathlons, swims, etc... i have tried almost every possible sports drink sure to make me 'feel great' and 'perform at my best'. That however, i'm not so sure of. I find that most of these sport drinks in fact upset my stomach and leave me bloated with stomach cramps. More often than not i find myself looking desperately on the horizon for a public toilet (too much detail?). They quite often have an effect like you have just bitten into a lemon, or they leave a nasty after taste, or they have an uncanny ability of letting you taste them twice during a workout....something which i'm sure most of us have experienced.
That however changed when i met a man named Selwyn Jellie. He is a quiet man and a very well accomplished distance swimmer who has the horrendous discomfort of becoming seasick every time he goes swimming. Now...i must mention that his swims aren't just small feats...they are such swims as: - 3 attempts at the English Channel Double Crossing (64kms)
- Manhattan Island Marathon Swim (28.5 miles)
- English Channel Solo Crossing (32kms)
- English Channel Relay Crossing (32kms)
- 7 x Rottnest Channel Swim (19.2kms)
So, understandably, getting sick during these events would take a lot out of you (literally). He would vomit and vomit and vomit his way through the swims losing copious amounts of fluid and well needed energy. Thus through the help of a food technologist and many years of research and testing, they developed the E3 Sports Drink! THANK YOU!!!
This sports drink is not just another run of the mill sports drink that you can get off the supermarket shelf. It was and is designed and tested with athletes in the USA and is spreading like hot cakes around Australia in the triathlon/ironman/crossfit and sporting community generally! It tastes amazing and is easy on the stomach!! It can be easily digested before, during and after an event. It is not full of sugar so you get that sickly feeling before or after you exercise either! It uses whey protein, carbohydrates and electrolytes to escalate performance, sustain energy, optimize hydration and boost recovery! Plus it is great for hangovers...bonus! I use it during and after crossfit and rugby and rave about it...hence wanting to share it with you all.
