Is it better to take sports drinks like Lucozade after, before or during training?
Or is it better not to use them at all? I’m quite fit but i was wondering if i could use these drinks to help train in any way for martial arts.
Sports Drinks often contain a mixture of sugars, minerals, and vitamins. They claim to improve performance during vigorous exercise.
In general, if you are exercising for less than 60 minutes, you do not need a sports drink (as stated by another answerer). In fact, you might not even burn as many calories as there is in one bottle of the sports drink. The research demonstrating benefits in sports drinks is usually performed on high-performance athletes who are exercising for long periods of time. It is, however, important to avoid dehydration since this may reduce your performance. Water is an excellent, inexpensive, and calorie-free option.Just a little bit of new information today for all those internet marketers looking for the best new up and coming release for 2010.

Sports drinks will only come in handy if you are active for more than 60 continuously. If you feel lack of energy you might need to look at what you are eating before the sport. Water should be sufficient. If you choose to use them anyway it will be best to sip on them during an intense exercise. They are a sugar solution and will replace carbohydrates quickly if you are depleted.
