Tailwind Nutrition Endurance Fuel, Carbohydrate & Electrolyte Sports Drink Mix Powder, Gluten-Free, Vegan, Naked Unflavored, 50 Servings

It’s a great product, tried it this month on a half ironman (6.5 hrs) and on a 50K trail run (6 hrs) with no side effects whatsoever and no cramping. Very easy to digest and the Naked flavor is actually great. But I had to take a protein bar 2/3 into the 50K run (very exhausting/hilly) to get back my mental clarity and better energy. Learned from other ultra runners (and other products) since then that protein is needed for very long workouts to prevent a drop in sugar levels. Will always use protein from now on, in addition to the energy nutrition. Will probably not renew if the competing product, which has 4g of protein per serving, works better. But otherwise this is an excellent product for shorter events! 10/2/2020 update: Tailwind Nutrition promptly clarified for me how to add protein to the fueling strategy, and it’s a great idea. Giving this a 5-star now! Response: "It's actually even easier...just use straight Rebuild as it contains glucose and sucrose, similar to our Endurance Fuel. We have some customers on very long efforts who, like you, would like some protein. They'll end up using both products with Endurance Fuel as their primary fuel and Rebuild interjected every now and then."

After bonking hard during my first marathon using just chews, I knew I needed a better fueling strategy for my next marathon. I chose Tailwind because it’s recommended by alot of ultramarathoners and if it’s good enough for all those miles then surely it’ll work for a measly 26.2. I love the light taste and it never upset my stomach. I’ve used it in half marathons and during my marathon training. For my road marathon, i made a super concentrate of four servings in 2 5oz soft flasks that I tucked into my pockets (no hydro vests, belts allowed) and drank plain water from the aid stations. Worked perfectly

No fake flavors, just salty-sweet taste. Includes biodegradable scoop, so no guilt or adding to the plastic scoop collection. No grit/dissolves quick and easy. Instructions recommend 2-3 scoops/ 24 ounce bottle

I use Tailwind as my main source of nutrition during ultra marathons. I'll also add in some Clif Bloks as I run and some aid station snacks just to change it up. I've had zero issues with bonking during a race with this combo. It's also very easy on my stomach. I love the unflavored - 12+ hours of running with a strong flavor is enough to make you sick.

I think its a good product, maybe a bit sweeter than a thought but nothing crazy. Definitely could buy again.

Yo, let me tell ya, Tailwind is straight fire! 💥 This stuff is the GOAT when it comes to keeping ya fueled up and crushin' it in your workouts. No cap, it's like magic dust in your bottle. Just mix it up and boom you're ready to be an alpha male through anything! No more crampin' up or feelin' like a deflated balloon mid-workout. This stuff keeps you lit the whole time, like a steady drip of awesomeness. Plus, the flavors? BUSSIN BUSSIN! It's like sipping on a tropical vacation while you grind. And the best part? No sketchy ingredients. it's clean AF, so you ain't gotta worry 'bout weird aftertastes or funky side effects. Just pure, smooth energy to keep you in the zone. On god, if you're tryna level up your game, Tailwind's the plug. Get on it and watch your performance go through the roof! Straight facts

I wanted to try all whole foods for ultra running but my gut just does not want to comply. I used two scoops of tailwind in my 17 oz water flask and sip on it over two hours so one scoop per hour. I also use other means of fuel to bump me up to 200 calories to 250 calories per hour. I needed tailwind to get me in the right caloric zone. I couldn't eat over 150 cals without cramps in my gut. This tailwind has made that happen so now my 5+ hour runs are doable and I feel 100% better. I know people who only use tailwind but I feel it's a good addition to fueling strategy. Also great band for your buck electrolytes are already included. So no need for salt tabs. Love the naked flavor as it barely has a sweet rate and is great for people who are having nausea or unsettled stomach. Which can happen!

I really wanted this product to work! It has great reviews and is used by many. However, the first time I used it I went with directions on the package. My heart started to race and I felt really weird after only drinking 1/4 of my 24 oz bottle. Then the next day I cut the dose to less than half and the same thing happened. I did get my money refunded, thank you. If your system is sensitive to over the counter meds like I am, this product may not be for you. I went back to old faithful LMNT.

Hot Sauce

Todo bien

This is my go to fuel for cycling and running. It mixes clean, isn’t stick or nasty and cleans up easily. It tastes good and doesn’t give me any GI distress at all. It’s brilliant. Not cheap. But brilliant.

I use this in my water when running/biking/ hiking etc. on long, hot days. Works well. Flavour is okay. Good for electrolyte replacement and also some extra calories for those long days. It is kind of expensive though. But good stuff.

Why did you choose this product over others?: Wife loved it, got her through her marathin
