Helpful....sip in a glucose mixture. Sip is the key word.

I like to use a well diluted p+c mixture during my longer workouts (strongman training, fighting). Like BB1 said, sip.

Pain is only temporary, it is in your mind. If you can still walk, then you can still run.

I sip on a scoop of whey with some Bcaa's mixed in. Keeps my energy level up and decreases the chances of going into a catabolic state. I also do my workouts in the am before eating...so this is very improtant for me to do.
