Fuel For Fire is a favorite of professional athletes from hockey players, to body builders, to endurance athletes.

One reason we hear for this is that Fuel Fire is simply a better product than anything else out there for athletes. Fuel For Fire Smoothies are different in terms of what they are (the first all-natural fruit + protein combination in a single serving pack) and what they are NOT --Take a look at the ingredient label of any sports nutrition product you're currently using. Chances are it's got lots of ingredients you can't pronounce, much less define. You won't find any of those things in Fuel For Fire-- no artificial sweeteners, preservatives, or anything that doesn't come from a natural food source. What you WILL find is real food. Ingredients you can recognize. And perhaps the biggest difference is the one your taste buds will notice. No more forcing yourself to eat awful tasting gels or convincing yourself you really like the chalky protein bar that tastes like fake candy.

The combination of healthy, easily digestible carbohydrates and high quality protein in our Fuel For Fire smoothies make them ideal before or after exercise, intra-workout, and on race, competition, or game day. Athletes that use Fuel For Fire pre-workout typically consume one of our smoothies 30-60 minutes before a workout, but the exact timing really depends on your own digestion and experience with pro-activity fueling. Experiment a bit and you'll find your ideal zone. After a workout, many find that Fuel For Fire should be consumed within 30 minutes to ensure that your body gets a balance of protein, carbs and nutrients it needs to restore depleted glycogen reserves, promote muscle recovery and synthesis, and perform again tomorrow.

Many elite triathletes, runners and cyclists have made Fuel For Fire a critical part of their training and pre- and post-race nutrition, with great results. Depending on the length of the event, Fuel For Fire can be used alone or in conjunction with other fuel sources to ensure proper nutrition. For longer events, the fructose in a Fuel For Fire can be a nice balance to glucose-based energy gels, allowing your body to benefit from multiple carbohydrate sources. For a pre-race breakfast, Fuel For Fire closely match the protocol suggested by leading triathlon coaches (fruit and whey protein). And unlike many energy gels on the market that are just carbohydrates, the protein in Fuel For Fire helps regulate blood sugar levels during exercise, which allows you to go longer without hitting a wall.
