I really like the taste of Pre-load or Re-load; can I drink them during training instead of Endurance or Sprint?
A. Both of these drinks contain protein that is beneficial and essential for replenishing muscle glycogen before and after training. Yes, it is ok to use protein while training; however it is less than optimal as your muscles cannot effectively utilize the amino acids from the protein until you are at rest. Whether or not ingesting protein during exertion is beneficial is widely argued and we believe that the decrease in osmolality prevents you from gaining maximum benefit from OS Performance Nutrition drinks.
