The Role of Carbohydrates in Athletic Performance

Carbohydrates are the primary source of fuel for the body during exercise. As an athlete, it’s crucial to understand how carbohydrates influence your energy levels and performance. Carbs break down into glucose, which fuels your muscles and brain during physical activity.

Studies show that consuming the right type of carbohydrates can improve endurance, reduce fatigue, and enhance overall performance. However, not all carbs are created equal. Simple carbs can lead to a quick spike in blood sugar, followed by a crash and some in supplement form can cause a terribly upset stomach– not ideal when you're in the middle of an intense training session.

That’s why SWIFT’s EnergyCharge, featuring Cluster Dextrins, is a our game-changer. Cluster Dextrins are complex carbohydrates that provide a slow and steady release of energy, preventing the crash associated with simple sugars and avoids that sick feeling from carbohydrate supplements like maltodextrin and glucose. They keep your energy levels stable, helping you power through tough workouts and competitions

By incorporating EnergyCharge into your routine, you'll fuel your body with a carbohydrate source that sustains you for longer periods, ensuring that you perform at your best from start to finish.

You can calculate your approximate carbohydrate intake needs using your fitness watch or an online calculator to ensure you’re getting enough for your training demands.

I recommend adding EnergyCharge to the NEW HydraCharge formula or to ReCharge post training for best results. The amount will depend on your training demands. 

Key Takeaways:

• Carbohydrates are essential for fuelling your muscles.
• Cluster Dextrins in EnergyCharge provide sustained energy without the crash and with out that terrible uneasy stomach feeling.
