First Endurance Orange Creamsicle & Cappuccino Ultragen $44.95 First Endurance have created two new great flavors after feedback and testing by the Gerolsteiner and T-Mobile squads. Levi Leipheimer claims: "If I was stuck on a desert island with only two items to train with, they'd be my bike and Ultragen." What better recommendation could you want than that?

First Endurance Ultragen: Storming the Glycogen Window
The hard training we do on the bike is only the stress that we impose, and is only half of the training equation. To get the most out of that hard training, we need to recover and let our body adapt and come back even stronger. Ultragen recovery drink by First Endurance can be a critical component of your recovery plan. read more >>

First Endurance Ultragen RS- Recovery Series Supplement
This white powder is the ultimate recovery mix for endurance athletes. After spending a couple hours laying down the wood to your fellow road nuts, it's always nice to come back to the homestead and mix up a wonderful, frothy shake-a-majig while downloading your GPS information. According to First Endurance, there is a crucial 30-minutetime period immediately following your trip up the Col de Elm Street when your insulin sensitivity is at its highest and your muscles are truly accepting to the offer of much-needed nutrients (more than just sugars and proteins) for restoration. This mixture combines a plethora of nutrients that are designed to work synergistically in order to fully maximize recovery-meaning the right stuff gets to the right place at the right time. Get it? Got it? Good! In essence, this savory posder has it all, plus it tastes yummy and is easy to digest because of the abundance of Whey Proteins.

Road Magazine (Jan. 2006)


"Training and racing can-and often does-produce a downward spiral when not effectively counterbalanced by recover. Depleted glycogen, vitamin and mineral stores combine with high levels of stress hormones produced by hard exercise, and the one-two punch can riddle you with overtraining symptoms and compromise your performance. In other words, hard work can go down the drain, and, at times, can even take you with it. Ultragen, produced by First Endurance gives you a handle on the nutritional components of recover. It's a simple way to whip up a drink you can easily get down in time to capitalize on the 30-minute glycogen window. Select proteins, high-glycemic carbohydrates and a blend of vitamins and minerals are the primary ingredients that quickly delivery the materials necessary to rebuild and refuel muscles and lessen the impact of cortisol."

"Ultragen is a new recovery drink, formulated for use immediately after a training session or race. Research has shown that there is a 30-minute window directly after strenuous exercise during which time the body is able to quickly soak up nutrients, allowing it to recover properly in order to perform again the following day. Ultragen's cocktail of proteins, carbohydrates vitamins minerals and electrolytes is all you need to ensure you're raring to go for the next day's stage or training session."

"First Endurance has used the most current research to develop a state-of-the-art recover formulation, which includes 60 grams of pure glucose for rapid glycogen replenishment, 20 grams of easily absorbed and high-quality hydrolyzed whey protein and milk protein isolate for optimal repair, a rich electrolyte blend to help promote rehydration, and a unique blend that includes specific amino acids as well as vitamins and minerals designed to suppress the damaging effects of cortisol, promote muscle growth and maximize immune function. Just a two-scoop serving mixed into 12 ounces of water provides these amazing attributes."
