Accelerade has launched a program that allow sponsored teams to give their members a 20% discount on all Accelerade product purchased through a special website. The team will receive a 5% cut of any sales from this website. Does anyone on the team use Accelerade or Endurox, besides me, and want to take advantage of this offer? If so, I can sign our team up for the program, but if I'm the only one who likes this stuff, I will just keep buying it from Trivantage.

endurox runs like 45ish i think...I know EFS runs for 22 so I assume accelerade is about the same.

I liked Endurox, but man I can't stand accelerade.  I rather drink my vomit on a ride.  Sorry for the visual.

ok, to give accelerade a little credit.   Accelerade does not taste that bad when it is cold, the only problem is that your water never stays cold for a decent amount of time.  Once it gets even a little warm, I cannot force it down.

Well, accelerade isn't too bad cold, like blake said. You can use in when training indoors, or have it in a cooler in the car for after the ride.
Endurox is good stuff tho, I havent gotten back into using anything yet mainly because I haven't had the chance to start training seriously again. But they are both among the top of the line drinks.

About this, you gotta remember to take into consideration the number of servings in each as well.

If somebody has not drank their own vomit yet either during a race, badass training ride, or a lactate test, it means you still haven't pushed yourself hard enough .... and shame on you!  Grin

PS: For those who don't know, the reason accelerate tastes not so great is because it has protein in it, for enhanced performace and more importantly enhanced RECOVERY.

Thats what Predictor is?  Shocked

Haha, oh well, I guess the team could use it too. Both for the safety of the guys who like to whore around, and the ladies.
