You basically need to look at whether your hydration needs are being sufficiently met. Is your diet and/or current electrolyte supplementation protocol meeting your performance needs?

For years I didn’t understand the importance of electrolytes. They are the cornerstone of optimal performance - most of the muscle is water! They were a game changer for my training.

If you are eating lower carbs, training intensely and/or for long periods, or not salting your food and paying attention to your potassium intake you may find a tasty electrolyte powder useful. Adding plain salt or potassium to your water or food in large amounts can really taste nasty.

I've also been finding it helping in overall recovery, decreased inflammation.. With the Ketolytes in particular its an extremely well dosed and potent stack.

Agreed and just not understanding anything beyond "salt" or "keto" as that's the only points being referenced. Completely missing the point of this supplement.

let’s not get “high and mighty” boys. the sh!t is expensive. and, if it’s hyped gatorade then guess what....

why is my question so absurd? is there not a ton of fckng salt in it? i was simply seeking out some user experience, which was provided and very much appreciated.

i’m sure i’m not the only one wondering the same things. so, let’s not bust my balls too hard fellas. dqmn.

I have never used this stuff. So I am not pimping anything. But I can tell you Gatorade absolutely sucks from an electrolyte perspective. And I can tell you that you cannot put grams of salt and especially a solid dose of granulated potassium into just 32oz of Gatorade or EAAs and have it taste decent at all. I have tried. So if this product can successfully flavor such a large amount of electrolytes in a moderate amount of water, THAT is why it would be worth the money. Most products just don’t pull that off.

Easily one of the best tasting products I have used. Hence why I continually buy 4-6 tubs at a time over and over and over and over again. You guys are really shooting something down without every giving it a whirl. You can't always judge a book by its cover. When his sample packets are back in stock I suggest picking it up and giving it a shot. I’ve tried almost all the flavors and while I enjoy the regular ones over the stevia ones I know @_Endure_ is a big fan. I think @ndiguy podted a review on them recently too which he enjoyed.

@DieselNY when will the ketolytes samples be back ??

It's actually not expensive and it's the most bang for your buck electrolyte product available. It's priced based on the market and its priced way lower than it should be.

Case in point; take a look at the price of Ultima which is one of the most popular ones out there. Gatorade is also popular but sorta laughable it's in the electrolyte category, its flavored water at best.

Back to comparisons. Keto Lytes HP vs Ultima

Lets compare one simple ingredient.

In entire tub:

Ultima: 4.95 grams of sodium

Keto Lytes HP: 60 grams of sodium.

Thata just 1 ingredient to compare.

Ultima is a kids bicycle, Keto Lytes HP is a Lamborghini. It really is that much better.

Here let's embarrass Ultima some more shall;

Total ingredients per scoop/serving..
Ultima: ~ 750 mg. (Milligrams)

Keto Lytes HP = almost 10 GRAMS.

Cellucor C4 Smart Energy Black Cherry

Taste



Black Cherry - Black Cherry is very similar to the Midnight Cherry offered from the original C4 Carbonated energy drink. Think about infusing Xtend Elite and a diet cherry coke. What I have noticed from C4 Carbonated to C4 Smart energy is how the flavoring is smoother during the entire experience. The sweetness of the black cherry is present from the very sip all the way to the back end. The carbonation is only amplifying the flavor to make it really shine. If you are a fan of Xtend Elite in black cherry this is a welcomed addition to the carbonated energy drink for C4 Smart Energy.

Thanks!

As far as taste - because it has 5gms salt, 1gm potassium plus other goodies, it is a super challenge to make it taste good but we did make it tasty!

So use COLD water and start with around 20oz and SHAKE well. Add more water until you hit the perfect spot. I do around 28 to 30oz give or take. If I take it pre workout then I use way less water and just chug it or mix in with a pre-workout powder and chug.

I have many guys mix it with their intra shake and love it.

I usually take a few empty 32oz Gatorade zero bottles and make a few batches of different flavors and keep in fridge and sip throughout the day. I also take a scoop pre workout alone or mixed with a pre workout powder and chug it.

Sometimes I use only 12 oz cold water and add 1 scoop to a shaker and chug.

My top flavors are grape bubblegum, blue razz lemonade, Raspberry banana.

Will be working on a sour green apple in a few months.

Thank you, bud. Green apple is usually a flavor I go for. So, that’s good news.

Yea can't wait for a sour green apple! I've tried grape bubblegum and Blue razz lemonade and prefer the blue razz out of those 2.

Never tried this brand so how is it in overnight proats mixed with just oats and water?
I see it's $26 for 5lbs which is even better than the $30 that I always see it for at M&S
so what are there BEST flavors ? I definitely wanna try the Cafe Mocha and C&C are there
other must have flavors that they make ?

Nice! The Iso-Whey pumpkin spice will taste better (IMHO) than the Zero Carb but Iso-Whey does have a stronger taste profile. The Zero carb is zero carbs, zero fat, stevia so that’s super hard to manage a nice flavor and sometimes the bitter stevia comes out so be sure to use enough liquid. Will always taste better in milk or almond milk etc. Its amazing if you blend it up in ice coffee.

Both the Iso-Whey and Zero Carb pumpkin flavors use all natural flavorings which is yet another bitch to work with to get a great taste. Feedback is awesome but pumpkin spice is one of those things you either love or hate. It is not pumpkin pie, it is a legit pumpkin spice. So would love to hear your feedback.

Yeah man turned out great. Really impressed with the taste and mixability. I usually use a blender but had to go old school and hand shake today. Had absolutely no clumps or anything residual at all. Flavor was on point, actually gave me a good after taste of a blue berry muffin. No chemicals taste at all. Good job 👏 👍
 
Good deal on the protein, an energy supp I'm looking forward to trying, and Glycophase added to the order for a free tank top :)

Thanks to @The Solution for some sample of KetoGenics Protein Powder (there were two more but I couldn't wait, this stuff is so good) It you have not tried it, buy some. It Is Fantastic !!
 
Sorry just reread your post. Overtime is good but strong. Three was my sweet spot, 4 and I would get short of breath just going up the stairs.

It’s a great brand. FYI the founder of Rule 1 is the original founder of Optimum Nutrition.

I’ve gone through tons and tons of Banana and Vanilla. Those are my go-to’s. I just ordered 10lbs of chocolate as well, so no comment on that yet

Thanks for the info. I was thinking 3-4. I bought it more for an extended energy supplement to take on the weekends rather than for working out.

I'm probably gonna pick up the 2 5lb tubs that I mentioned and grab a few of the other flavors in the 2lb tubs
such as choc hazelnut, cinnamon, and maybe birthday cake but I might also have to grab a few tubs of Olympic
Lifestyles if their protein is still $14 a tub cause I like casein/whey blends for cooking and baking
