Cramping is often a sign of dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. Our Liquid IV products are formulated to combat this common issue among cyclists. Each serving delivers a precise blend of sodium and potassium, crucial electrolytes for maintaining proper muscle function. By incorporating this into your hydration for cyclists strategy, you can significantly reduce the risk of debilitating cramps during your rides.

Water is essential, but during intense exercise like cycling, it's often not enough to replace the fluids and electrolytes lost through sweat. Liquid IV utilizes Cellular Transport Technology (CTT) to deliver hydration to your bloodstream more rapidly and efficiently than water alone. With its precise ratio of electrolytes and glucose, it enhances water absorption, making your cycling hydration strategy significantly more effective.

For optimal results, we recommend a strategic approach to your in-ride nutrition. Begin hydrating with Liquid IV before you even start your ride, and continue to sip it consistently every 15-20 minutes. For rides lasting over 90 minutes, start incorporating Carbs Fuel no later than the first hour to maintain your energy levels. This ensures you have a steady supply of both hydration and carbohydrates for cycling.

We understand that digestive comfort is paramount for cyclists. That's why Carbs Fuel products are specifically formulated for easy digestion and absorption, even during high-intensity efforts. Unlike many other energy products that can cause bloating or stomach upset, the formula is designed to provide the fuel you need without the discomfort, making it an excellent choice for your cycling energy food.

Absolutely. Whether you're a competitive racer, a weekend warrior tackling your first century, or a recreational rider enjoying a scenic route, our collection is designed to enhance your performance and enjoyment. The fundamental needs for hydration and energy are universal in cycling, and our products provide a reliable and effective solution for every level of cycling performance.

Individual needs can vary based on factors like intensity, duration, and personal sweat rate. However, a good starting point for endurance cycling nutrition is to consume one serving of Liquid IV (or fluid in general) per hour to maintain hydration and electrolyte balance. For carbohydrate intake, aim for 30-60 grams per hour, which can be achieved with our Carbs Fuel products. Increasing your carbohydrate intake is shown to improve overall performance, with some professional athletes consuming more than 100 grams per hour!
