HAMMER NUTRITION: Perpetuem

Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem is a fuel designed for the extreme sports. It should be used for events that last longer than six hours up to several days.


Perpetuem contains everything the body needs to keep going, like complex carbohydrates, healthy fats, soy protein, and nutrients like sodium phosphate.


Lecithin is used to refuel the body by producing energy from the stored fatty acids in the body. This is my favorite fuel for races. There are also cardiovascular enhancing isoflavones that assist with the endurance needs of your workout.


Perpetuem works by using the stored fats in the body for energy. It prevents muscle fatigue by buffering lactic acid.


Simple sugars are never used in Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem. A sweetener is used for taste. Stevia is used, which I love the taste of. It is also great in iced tea! Stevia that is, not the Perpetuem!


XT is a protein that makes up almost 10% of the calories of the Perpetuem. This is the percentage of calories that is burned during a slow endurance workout by your body. This is what keeps the body from eating your muscles.


You will be amazed at what adding protein to your endurance sports will do for you.

WHEN SHOULD YOU USE PERPETUEM?

HOW TO USE PERPETUEM

The first method that you can try to consume the Perpetuem is by creating a gel or a paste. This method you are carrying the least amount of weight with you and it takes up the least amount of space.


If space issues and weight are a problem or you are concerned they might slow you down, the gel and paste is the best option for you. When you make the gel or paste, there is not an exact measurement.


You can actually get 5 scoops in a bottle. Just use a fork to mix it with a little bit of water, before you pour it in the flask.


You will mix water with the mixture of the Perpetuem and decide which consistency is right for you. The more Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem you add, the more flavor it will have also. You can use a the fork to mix the Perpetuem in a bowl or you can put it in a blender, whichever is easier for you.


You should determine how many scoops per hour your body needs so you make enough of the gel or paste.

It is also important to remember that you need to hydrate your body along with the use of Perpetuem with plenty of water. Your water supply is crucial.

A one-hour bottle of Perpetuem is commonly used when you have a crew. This is because the bottles should remain refrigerated. If you can have someone meet you along the way during your race or your event with a fresh bottle of Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem, this is an excellent way to keep going.


If you do not have people helping you but you would like to use the one-hour bottle method, you will have to stop and mix the drinks. They should be consumed right away or refrigerated.


To make the one-hour bottle of Perpetuem, you will determine how many scoops your body needs for the hour and mix it with water. This bottle can be from 20 ounces to 28 ounces and should be consumed each hour.



THE MULTI-HOUR BOTTLE

The third and easiest method of consuming the Perpetuem is to make a multi-hour bottle. This allows your workout to be continued for several hours and only requires you to drink more water along with it.


You will decide how many scoops of Perpetuem you need each hour and how many hours you want the bottle to last. You will put that many scoops in the bottle (providing the bottle is big enough) and fill the rest of the bottle with water.


The Perpetuem should be drank in small sips every ten minutes or so. You should also drink approximately 20 ounces of plain water each hour.


Perpetuem is the ultimate refueling drink for extreme athletes who need to sustain their endurance for long hours. Remember for shorter events you want to use Sustained Energy.
