Want to try Wilderness Athlete but Seriously?

I pour a 16 oz Rockstar, and a 16 oz AMP on a cookie sheet. I then stick that in the oven at low temp until all liquid is gone and you are left with a white residue. I then take this and pour it onto a glass table where I chop it up, exteremly fine. I then take a 1 inch piece of straw, clamp and melt on end so it is sealed, pour in 1 gram of powder, then clamp and melt the other end. This ensures no moisture will degrade my product while in the field. When I need a boost, I simply cut on end, insert in nose, snort, and BAM. A quick hit of pure energy.

Hahaha Nice! There was this sketchy lookin' dude outside the bar trying to sell me some of that stuff a couple weeks ago. Too expensive for me!

They do have a 10 day challenge pack for for $20. That is 10 of each energy and hydrate, their multivitamin and a ball cap. I will be taking the individual packets on my Alberta Sheep hunt this weekend. I have been using the products for a few years and they do work well. When you are worn down while hunting hard the mixture of both the energy and Hydrate together really seem to help out.

I found this awesome thing that really really works to keep you hydrated . You guys should try it, it's called water and it's just laying around all over in the mountains

Ya, that's the stuff you pour the WA into. Or I guess for some they could just snort it and see what it does. Like I've said before.........it may all be in my head, but I'm more than willing to pay that little bit for what it does for me, in my head or not.

But if I put this stuff in my water I won't be able to taste the elk piss. So that's no fun

You described that process waaaay to well......lol.

Seriously though water works great. If you can't stand the taste, there are cheaper alternatives to WA.

Where did you see that? It's $40 + $10 shipping, and that's at 10% off! -

So I get 10 packs of H&R (which is what I want to try) for $5 each. I don't want to buy a tub of something that I might not like the taste of. I also don't need that much so there is the shelf life issue.

Try this link, you get 10 hydrate & recover,- 10 energy & focus.

Click on the link - it looks like your still in the wilderness athlete store but when you check out its thru the outdoorsmans store. I bought a kit a few weeks ago and it's been good stuff.

Looks like a good Multi Vitamin with some added Glutamine. Just pop a multi and buy some glutamine if you want a supp for recovery.

 

[njdoxie]

I've been using both for 8 months, doesn't seem to do much....I notice a little pickup from the Energy drink....I don't think I'll buy anymore, it's expensive

+1 for Nuun. Keeps me hydrated without any sugar crash and 12 servings fit in your palm.

I haven't tried Wilderness Athlete, but I have to imagine it's the same as many of the other athlete drink supplements. I've done a decent number of triathlons and long distance cycling. The drinks definitely have a positive impact if your sweating a lot or really pushing your body. Fewer cramps, faster recovery and more energy. I always liked Cytomax the best. Citris flavor. Little sweet, so I go half strength. I don't like the taste of most of them, so it's good to experiment to make sure you like it. I would start with small containers first. See if you like it and how your body feels when it's in your stomach. Some feel better than others. Everyone is different. Many bike shops sell these drinks, REI has some, Performance bike, etc. it often goes on sale and you might not need to pay shipping. I've taken it hunting many times just to switch up flavors, as water from a bottle can taste pretty crappy day after day.

Ok this stuffs got me interested. I've been using Squencher because its sugar free, is WA sugar free? I need to watch it due to my Diabetes.

here is the nutrition facts

 

[IdyllwildArcher]

I can mix a vitamin with some salt and sugar. Anyone want to buy it?

 

[mattm94]

Looks like fancy and expensive EmergenC, which is available just about anywhere, in lots of different flavors. It also doesn't have caffeine, which is counterproductive to hydration.

Buy a box of packets from you local store for $6-8 and rock on.

Used WA last year and noticed a benefit from it. I also bring along a MIO Energy mix, to squirt into my carry bottle for a quick shot of go juice, as needed.

This year, my partner is bringing some some AquaGen drops for our hunt. He's experimented with it a few times, and seems to feel it might help acclimatize quicker. Going from 160ft ASL to 11K camp, imma sure give it a shot...

Should add, I wean myself off all caffeine drinks a few weeks before a highcountry hunt. Then, a cup of green tea with a Honey Stinger in it, along with breakfast, really gets me going in the AM!

 

[gmajor]

Seems to me like a lot of guys I know just want to wear the hat.

 

[miller1]

If that is what they want I have a brand new WA hat I will sell for $25.
