Early last year a triathlete buddy introduced me to Liquid Shots by First Endurance. I began to use Liquid Shots (read about it here) for all of my training during the humid South East Texas summer. With training in the oppressive heat I was experiencing cramping during my longer training sessions and a flask of Liquid Shots contains 1500mg of Electrolytes - problem solved! I absolutely fell in love with the product and First Endurance won major points with me!
Since the Liquid Shots worked so well I started to research what other products First Endurance offered and came across Ultragen. Now at this time I was about six weeks into a 24-week Half-Ironman training program and my body was feeling the pain. I was sore and tired. Over the last couple of years I have tried about every recovery drink on the market and the results were well below average from the manufacturer claims. I was not very optimistic that Ultragen would work based on past experience but since the Liquid Shots worked as advertised I had some trust in First Endurance so I pulled out the credit card and ordered the Cappuccino flavor. Best. Decision. Ever.
Shortly after beginning to use Ultragen after my workouts my entire body began to feel better, especially the next morning when I would wake up. It was like I had tiger blood running through my veins! No longer would I wake up and make that groaning sound as I lifted my legs out of the bed. No longer would I walk like a penguin to the medicine cabinet to take some Advil. No longer would I just go through the motions of a workout because my muscles were sore and tired. No longer would I waste time and money looking for a recovery drink because I found the perfect recovery formula in Ultragen.
Flash forward to this season and the Cappuccino Ultragen is a must have for me after each workout. It won me over during last years HIM training and has continued to perform for me as I am 14-weeks into full Ironman training. Last week I logged over 20-hours of training and my legs and body are still feeling fresh. And unlike many other Recovery Drinks Ultragen tastes fantastic! I actually crave the Cappuccino Ultragen.
There are a ton of recovery drinks in the market but this is the first one I have tried that actually does what it claims!
