Vtargo CL
has been specially developed to meeet the demands and needs of elite
athletes. This unique carbohydrate Vtargo CL is the complete
carbohydrate supplement, which is most effective when loading
carbohydrates before competition, as a sport drink during
training/competition and last, but by no means least, to restore the
energy balance after training/competition. Clinical studies at the
Karolinska Institute, Stockholm has proved this.
Maximum
endurance through carbohydrate loading
It is widely known that a lack of glycogen negatively affects one's
physical endurance level. One quite simply can not keep up with the
pace and intensity of a whole training session. A basic well-balanced
diet is fundamental to a sportsman's performance. But for those who
train and compete a lot, it is difficult to satisfy his/her need for
easily accessible energy (carbohydrate) through their normal diet. This
is where Vtargo CL comes into the picture.
Vtargo CL allows the body
to load carbohydrates in a suitable way.
If one weighs 70-75kg
dietitians recommend 600g of digestible carbohydrates a day, for the
last three days prior to competition. This would require the athlete to
eat around 5kg potatoes or 2,5kg boiled pasta per day. With hand on
heart, could you manage that?
With Vtargo CL you are
able to eat your normal amounts of food and at the same time load
carbohydrates to the body's maximum level.
Optimum
training through reloading
Ensuring the right energy balance is important for both the elite
athlete and the enthusiast. A body that does not receive enough energy
is more susceptible to infections and over-training symptoms. What is
most important is reloading the bodies carbohydrate stocks (liver and
muscles) within ½ - 1 hour after training/competition.
Vtargo CL is the ultimate
supplement in these situations since one can quickly and easily take in
carbohydrates together with a liquid. The carbohydrate in
Vitargo®CL™ has been shown in studies by the
Karolinska Institute, Stockholm to be 70% quicker in reloading glycogen
levels after training/competition than other sport drinks.
Keep up the tempo through
the entire race
Vtargo CL is a sport
drink for you that demand a lot of your body. During work the body
needs 1 – 1½g carbohydrates per hour per kg of
your body weight to keep up the blood sugar level (if the blood sugar
level drops, concentration and speed are affected). Drinking a
carbohydrate solution is the best way of retaining the right level, if
you weigh between 70 – 75kg you should drink a 75g packet of
Vtargo CL every hour.
Vtargo CL has the benefit
of passing through the stomach quickly and therefore gentle on the
stomach during an activity.
