Saturday: Pro Fuel & Hydration

Hard to believe how simply pantry items can help with training. No GI distress following the recipes for ALL my rides. Amazing how I’m know able to complete tougher workouts with less breaks. At the end of 3 hour outdoor sessions, I don’t feel drained like before when I used the expensive fuels.

So excited about this app! I have been using for two weeks and I am looking forward to trying my new nutrition strategy from Saturday in my next race. So far this program has kept me focused on my nutrition and I have more confidence in my plan.

Saturday takes the thinking out of it and allows you to fuel for your endurance training insanely easily. If you want better performance, you need Saturday.

This has been a game changer for me as an endurance athlete. Gels don’t always sit well and/or the logistics of opening a packet and squeezing it in my mouth while running don’t always work. I also sometimes struggled with getting enough calories especially on the bike when I don’t want to fumble with packets. Using Saturday has made me feel stronger and my training go better with giving me exactly what I need! I also don’t feel as wiped out after long run and bike workouts because I am getting in what my body needs. I love the option to add my own products and make it tasty for me. If you are an endurance athlete you need this app! It will change your training for the better!

I’ve been riding and racing for many years, and the advice from this team has been a game changer. The science and the recipes have improved my performance.

Amazing app and info from Saturday crew on their YouTube videos. I have been an outdoor enthusiast/athlete for most of my adult life and Triathlete, the last 10 years. Between work and busy schedule not having time to put into researching the best nutrition and the right amount. I have cramped and or bonked more times than I can count before Saturday app and videos. Since using the app I have more energy during the workout and ready for the next workout. I’m able to follow the prescribed prep for my next triathlon much easier thanks to also better recovery. Thank you Dr Alex and Michelle!!

My only question is, what do I do with the supplies I’ve invested in but no longer need?

Saturday app has helped me deliver better training sessions using science. I've known for a long time that I sweat far more and with far higher sodium content than most people. I didn't know though how much I was lacking in my hydration and sodium needs on those long, hot training sessions until I began using and trusting the app to guide me. The trust has built over time and by observing the improvements in performance and how I feel during and after my training sessions. I feel like I've done my last Ironman event where I'll be wasting time in excessive pitstops resulting from insufficient fueling.

Must admit, this makes fueling for training/racing super straightforward. Just finished a marathon training block and had success following Saturday’s recommendations throughout. I use this and their sugar/salt water recommendations for short/easy runs and supplement with other more portable fuels (gels/drinks) as needed for longer efforts. Works like a charm and requires no thinking.

Makes fueling a ride a simple. Answer a few setup questions when you first use the app then just input the duration and intensity and how hot your ride is going to be and it tells you how much carbs, salt and water to take. Then you either make up your own mix, supplement with products or go completely with 3rd party products - the app does the math for you. Simple, which means you’ll use it. You’ll be pleasantly suprised how much better you feel if you fuel appropriately.
