When I go cycling, running, and hiking - I take a lot of supplements for amino acid replacement, electrolytes, and fuel.

I eat gels, gummies, trail bars, and electrolyte mixes for my water.

I think it's important to note that we bigger folks who are trying to lose weight need to watch what supplements we take because those too have fat, sugars, and calories that could hurt us in the long run.

Are there any special brands that you all go for in terms of being less fattening for athletes? I'd love to see what everyone is using these days. healthier alternatives.
