If it's a choice between the 2, then energade.

Otherwise Hammer's products are always good.

Game or energade? What do you put in your water bottle?

 

Energade is too sweet lately. I like Game :) This has nothing to do with electrolytes, carb to protein ration, carb/sugar density but ALL with taste.... I hate plain water ;)

 

Oh... when I run, a few sips of water here and there, and then some black ambulances at most water points! THOSE work like a charm!

When it's too sweet, is it a self mix of straight out of the bottle?

Self mix (according to instructions), which is definitely sweeter than ready-made (which is quite a bit more expensive)

I think that Energade is overrrated and too sweet.

 

It also depends on your training session. I think that if Game was good enough for 10000's of Comrades Marathon runners for years, its good enough for my morning and weekend training rides, road or MTB. The tin you buy from Pick and Pay is great value for money, and it does the job without having to pay through my nose for the fancy stuff. The fancy stuff I use for racing is FiT Carbo Supreme. I've even found that the green Game mixed with the red Game ends up with a bleddy nice flavour :P.
