Colorado-based Tailwind Nutrition appears to have struck the holy grail of endurance drinks with Tailwind Endurance Fuel, a sports beverage that uses clean ingredients to provide instant and long-lasting energy whilst sparing you from the plethora of digestive and stomach issues caused by lesser products, and also tasting incredibly good.
Tailwind Nutrition proudly states that its formulation is free of "dyes, preservations or four-syllable magical ingredients," and the ingredients list on the package certainly bears that out. The key element of the Tailwind Endurance Fuel formula is its electrolyte blend that wields magnesium, potassium and calcium to accelerate absorption and proactively replace the fuel that you sweat out. However, the calorie content of this beverage is just as vital, providing dextrose and sucrose channels that infiltrate your bloodstream rapidly without causing stomach cramps or digestive issues along the way. Finally, Tailwind Endurance Fuel escalates water absorption beyond what you would experience if you drank water alone, so you'll stay hydrated.
Like with all good things, Tailwind Endurance Fuel takes a couple of tries to figure out just right. The company recommends starting out with two to three scoops per 24 ounces of water per hour for endurance workouts, adjusted to your personal calorie count. To optimize the formulation, simply work your way to a position where you're not getting hungry around three hours into your endurance run, ride or swim. Once you've gotten to this position but also don't feel full or bloated, you're officially an endurant running/riding/swimming machine. Tailwind's careful and helpful guidelines around optimizing intake are yet another testament to the seriousness of this product compared to one-size-fits-all formulations that really fit nobody, especially if you have the stomach issues that are so ubiquitous but rarely discussed in endurance training circles. As an added bonus, the stunningly accurate mandarin flavor as well as the berry, lemon and naked varieties are caffeine-free, though caffeine adherents have the option of picking up the matcha, raspberry, cola and tropical lines.
Tailwind Endurance Fuel is one of those rare products that looks to have the potential to shake up its entire category, with the sensation of clean yet powerfully long-lasting energy that doesn't result in cramp, crash or dehydration making for a marvelous sensation - and one that is sure to help you take your endurance workouts and competitive performances to a different level.
