Hammer HEED is a definite "step up" and welcome departure from the
seemingly endless number of powdered sports drinks available to
endurance athletes, giving you all the convenience of a powdered drink
mix along with many added benefits not found in the vast majority of
sports drinks. One of the primary flaws inherent with most sports
drinks is their reliance on simple sugar as the carbohydrate source.
The use of simple sugar such as glucose, sucrose, and fructose not only
severely limits the amount of calories that can be efficiently digested
and utilized for energy, it may cause wild fluctuations in energy
levels. HEED's all-complex carbohydrate formula, on the other hand,
allows you to obtain the ideal amount of calories you need, providing a
more consistent and longer lasting energy supply, and without putting
you at risk for stomach distress.
HEED also provides a complete and easily assimilated electrolyte
profile, not just salt and potassium, which comprise the electrolyte
"profile" of most other drinks. For some athletes, one or two level
scoops of HEED will completely fulfill electrolyte requirements (in
addition to caloric requirements). For other athletes, the electrolyte
profile in HEED will provide an excellent base from which additional
Endurolytes can be added to completely satisfy electrolyte needs. With
added chromium polynicotinate for maintaining stable blood glucose
levels and l-carnosine for buffering lactic acid, HEED is truly in a
class of its on in the world of powdered sports drinks.
So whenever and wherever a sports drink is your preferred choice,
heed your body's desire for a superior fuel. HEED is the only choice
you need to make.
Added benefits
- Steady, consistent energy.
- Buffer lactic acid.
- Help prevent cramps.
- Gluten-Free and Vegan Friendly.
- Contains no MSG.
RECOMMENDED USE
HEED may be used as the sole fuel during exercise lasting up to two
hours, fulfilling all your calorie and fluid requirements, and
most-to-all of your electrolyte needs. HEED may also be used as a
partial source of calories and electrolytes when exercising for periods
in excess of two hours.
Mixing / Usage Instructions:
Mix 1-3 scoops (see chart below) of HEED in 16-24 ounces of water. Sip continuously during exercise.
Suggested Doses by Body Weight*:
- Up to 120 pounds: up to 1.5 scoops/hour
- 120-155 pounds: up to 2.5 scoops/hour
- 155-190 pounds: up to 2.75 scoops/hour
- 190+ pounds: up to 3 scoops/hour
*These are estimated doses. Each athlete should determine in training, under a variety of conditions, their personal optimum.
Notes:
When training sessions or races go much longer than two hours,
select either Perpetuem or Sustained Energy as your primary fuel
source. In these instances, HEED can still be used intermittently for
variety as long as your total hourly caloric intake does not exceed
your training determined maximum.
Each scoop of HEED contains the equivalent amount of electrolytes as
approximately 2/3 of an Endurolytes capsule. For many athletes, under
normal conditions, one or two scoops of HEED will completely fulfill
electrolyte requirements. When heat stress increases significantly, you
will need to consume additional Endurolytes.
