Product Description
This is a protocol where you train low without carbohydrate (using ZERO for example) and compete high with a carbohydrate drink like EnergySource. The theory is that by forcing your body to train without carbohydrate you adapt and burn more fat overall as fuel. In addition you are able to tolerate low glycogen levels better in race conditions.
