Gatorade Product Review:
Gatorade Prime Active
Orange and
Fruit Punch
Use: Almost frozen like a slush.
Taste: Awesome
Experience: Awesome
I have used Gatorade Prime Active on several occasions. However, I have mostly used Gatorade Prime Active while training in the desert when I had already spent my days painting and doing construction for a family member. Therefore, I had already used up my entire strength for the day and I still had a fantastic ride or run.
Gatorade Prime Active works very well in the desert, in the heat, when already dehydrated and energy is spent. I had great energy and I was able to get in great long cycles and runs, and swims in after drinking Gatorade Prime Active. I have not used Gatorade Prime Active on days where I was not already exhausted from a full day’s work of construction.
I am thinking about trying this product out as a gel replacement, on long dry and hot workouts and during races as a transition or special needs treat in longer triathlon races (half iron triathlon).
I greatly enjoyed both the Gatorade Prime Active Berry and Orange Flavors.
Gatorade Prime Active is super easy to use, super tasty as a slushy, incredibly refreshing, and worked instantly. Gatorade Prime Active is also easy on the stomach and absorbs right away. Gatorade Prime Active works very well even when using 15 minutes to a half hour before a workout (no spike in nervous energy). Gatorade Prime Active even works well on days where my stomach may bother me from other products or stressful situtions.
Gatorade G Series Recovery Drink
Use:
Cool from the fridge or warm from the carTaste:
DisgustingExperience: I just can't drink this stuff. Also, I do not want to drink this stuff because I do not believe in using fake sugars.
I tried Gatorade G Series - Recovery Drink and was not able to drink more than one or two mouthfuls as it tastes awful. Which made me look at the ingredients. I found that Gatorade G Series - Recovery Drink contains Sucralose (probably the reason for the foul taste?)
When I have finished a long ride or swim and I am looking to use a recovery product, I am not looking for a product with fake sugar alcohol. I want a recovery product that will make me feel great after my work out, help me to maintain my energy for the rest of the day so that I can do whatever it is I need to do that day, and improve my workouts for the rest of the week/life.
I will not
use Gatorade Recovery unless they change the product.
Thank you!
