Is 30 to 60 carbs per hour old news?

Endurance nutrition is shifting toward higher carbohydrate intake during training and racing. While 30 to 60 grams per hour was once the standard, new research shows that may be too low, especially for efforts over two hours.

Many athletes are now aiming for up to 90 grams per hour and seeing better energy and performance.

The key is fueling smarter with products that improve absorption and reduce stomach issues.

Fuel more, perform better.

As athletes push toward higher carb intake (up to 90–110 grams per hour), HOW you carry and consume fuel matters more than ever.

The Swivel Bottle makes it easy to consistently sip and stay on top of your fueling without breaking your rhythm. Instead of falling behind on carbs, you can steadily take in what your body actually needs during longer efforts.

If higher carb intake is the goal, the Swivel Bottle helps make it doable.
