I doubt you need the 'energy' or 'electrolytes' from any energy drink unless you train more than 1 hour everyday. Like maybe 1-2 hours then you only need 1 energy drink. If only exercising <1 hour then plain water is good enough. If you just workout a short while then drink all the sugar from an energy drink all your effort is wasted for nothing.

Yea I definetely get dehydrated after jogging/running 45-60mins without drinking any water. After I finish I drink like 4-6 glasses water immediately to quench thirst. And some lowfat milk for some protein.
If you can stomach it, eat a banana instead of an energy drink. Those professional tennis players eat bananas in between sets to get an energy surge from the fructose, prevent muscle cramps from the potassium, and it has less than 100 calories in it.

QUOTE(malaysianPotato @ Apr 21 2009, 12:06 AM) And they don't drink plain water. Look at the bottles, alot of the times they're filled with coloured fluids, probably gatorade? hm didn't see sorry, maybe they drink energy drinks too
