If you're doing an ultra distance race, one where you'll be racing through the night and into the next day, chances are you'll need something to help you stay alert. We have two suggestions:
1) Use one of the caffeinated versions of Hammer Gel on occasion. Each serving of the espresso Hammer Gel contains 50 mg of caffeine and each serving of tropical Hammer Gel contains 25 mg. By using these specific flavors of Hammer Gel you will be providing your body with complex carbohydrates, as well as a sufficient but not too-high dose of caffeine.
2) Take a capsule of Super Antioxidant every 1-2 hours during nighttime hours. The Ginkgo biloba and vinpocetine components in the product not only provide antioxidant support, they also have circulation-enhancing benefits and are purported to have cognitive/alertness-enhancing benefits as well.
