Endurance and ultra-endurance athletes require all three forms of fuel the human body uses for energy: carbohydrate, protein, and fat. A major factor for optimal performance is using the right fuel, at the right time, in the right amount. Like every aspect of success in endurance events, proper nutrition requires planning, practice, and training to reap the benefits on race day.

Feedback
In the first day or two of using
Chromemate, I instantly noticed that I didn't have the sugar cravings that I normally have (in fact super sweet things don't even taste very good to me now). I also noticed while I am at work, I don't go through the "sleepy times" I normally go through. It is nice to go through my work day and have a constant energy level all day!

I am impressed with the addition of
Endurance Amino. You have been the most reliable company with outstanding products, coming out with only the best grade products. I have used your products for some years now and look forward to another season using them. Thank you for all products and
information!

From moderately long rides all the way to ultra endurance rides. Nothing fuels like Hammer!

I started using your products when I became a member of IC3 North Texas. After using
HEED,
Perpetuem,
Hammer Gel, and
Endurolytes I can say that I WILL NOT use anything else for my refueling needs. As anyone else that uses your products says, "They work". I also just finished using
Appestat with successful results also. I lost about 10 lbs for the 90 capsule supply. Great work guys and keep it coming.

Successful training includes fueling the body's recovery. Our team hasn't stopped training until we've taken our
Recoverite,
Tissue Rejuvenator,
Super Antioxidant, and
Xobaline. Whether 5 hours or 5 days, we keep racing with minimal pain and little need for NSAIDs. Hammer On!
