Well, whether you would benefit from consuming a sports drink depends on the events you are taking part in and your goals, says Professor Louise Burke of the Australian Institute of Sport. Sports drinks typically contain water and electrolytes (usually sodium and potassium) for rehydration and carbohydrates (as sugars) for energy. They were invented in the 60s to replenish fluid and provide extra fuel for intense sporting activity of a long duration (more than 90 minutes). "If you're in the gym pedalling to lose weight while you read a magazine, then you don't need a sports drink, just drink water," says Burke, who runs the nutrition program for the elite athletes at the institute. Do you need the carbs? Don't forget the sugar Use water:

MMM Receives Legal Threats – Great Lawyer Wanted
The threats are real.. but how we respond to them is our choice. Sigh. I suppose this was bound to happen sometime. This blog is approaching its third birthday and has been blessed with over 62 million page views from 5.2 million people and counting. A few weeks ago, a flurry of registered letters and FedEx packages started arriving at the Mustache residence. How did they even find out about this conversation, you might ask? The first threat. From what I could tell, there wasn’t much merit to their complaint. I could have taken it down anyway and been free from the hassle. Adding to the bullshit nature of the claims, it seemed like my adversary was humorously unaware of the Streisand Effect: trying to suppress information only ensures its permanent and widespread distribution. So while I removed the old post pending some legal advice, I did take one step: I started a new thread on the forum, explaining the legal threat that I had received. Well, they didn’t like that either. Hey! p.s.
