Description

Skip the Agony of Early Training. Jump to Mid-Season Legs.

SportLegs Fast Fitness Boost Pre-Workout Lactic Acid Supplement was developed by time-challenged amateur triathletes to speed training response. It works so well, racers use it season after season, proof it's not a fluke.

Trusted by 2-time US Downhill MTB champion Marla Streb, 3-time US Olympic team biathletes Tracy and Lanny Barnes, 4-time World Masters Time-Trial champion Mike Olheiser, and 5-time US Cross-Country MTB champion Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski. SportLegs will work for you, or your money back.

Bicycling magazine calls SportLegs "a staff favorite," noting that it "pre-loads your bloodstream with lactate, a clever way to raise your lactate threshold and boost performance. You just don't get sore." Triathlete Cameron Chesnut of Post Falls, Idaho adds, "My University of Washington Sports Physiology professors say the idea behind SportLegs is ingenious, and we can't understand why someone didn't try this sooner."

What's In It & What Isn't

SportLegs uses vegan forms of lactate, your muscles' preferred natural fuel, plus calcium, magnesium and Vitamin D for fast absorption. It contains no sodium, no dairy, no gluten, and no GMOs.

It's hypoallergenic, California Prop 65 safe, and NSF Certified For Sport, making it legal for USADA and Olympic competition.

How It Works

SportLegs targets Lactate Mismatch, the early-exercise gap where muscles produce lactate fuel before they're ready to consume it. That mismatch sparks muscle acidity symptoms of cramps, "burn," heavy legs and early fatigue.

By gently raising blood lactate before exercise, SportLegs helps muscle lactate consumption match lactate production from the start. The result: Faster training adaptation, noticeably higher Lactate Threshold "burn," endurance without cramps and heavy legs, without the bloating, gastric distress or mess associated with expensive bicarbonate-based products. Convenient vegan capsules also allow easy re-dosing for long events.

No loading phase required. Take 1 capsule per 50 lbs. body weight 30 minutes before exercise, and re-dose with same dose every 2 hours to maintain effects during long efforts.

Features:

  • Enhanced Performance: this pre-workout supplement with magnesium for men and women is designed with endurance in mind. This safe, healthy yet powerful formula can help boost fitness fast, so you can run marathons, climb mountains, cycle, swim, and more, with less pain.
  • Endurance Supplement: When we exercise, our muscles produce high amounts of lactate fuel. Too much lactate can turn into lactic acid and hinder muscle performance with pain. These pre-workout capsules can help control lactate production so your muscles can perform longer and help you build muscle mass with less pain.
  • Muscle-Cramp Defense: Exercising often causes muscle fatigue and soreness. This magnesium supplement helps provide relief from muscle spasms and cramps, helping you recover from your workout faster with less pain from lactic acid buildup.
  • Fast-Absorbing Magnesium: Unlike conventional magnesium tablets or magnesium pills, you don't have to wait for results. This formula works within half an hour and doesn't need to be consumed daily. Just take them prior to exercising for muscle support.
  • Directions: For optimal results, take one capsule for every 50 lbs. of body weight, rounding up. Use 30 minutes before sports or exercise. For sustained sports or tournament competition, re-dose every two hours.

Competitive Edge For Endurance Sports...Very Effective Supplement

Very few sports supplements are actually effective...Sportlegs is one of the exceptions. An retired pro racer recommended Sportlegs to me and I was very skeptical, until I started using this. I'm a hard core cyclists and I spend enough time on the bike, that I can notice subtle changes in performance. I've been using this supplement for over a year now, and there is no question, Sportlegs makes a very noticeable improvement in my ability to push bigger gears and maintain a higher pace over the course of a ride, before my legs are fried. I hesitate to says this...but the difference for my body, is almost night and day. I can't say that you will see the same effect as I have, but give this a try and see for yourself. I'm a believer in using Sportlegs supplement.

Really do work

If you're one of those cyclists who typically suffers from burning muscles on hard rides, you really want to give these a try. Take a few of these before you start your ride, then one to two an hour, and your muscles will probably feel much better at the end. These really don't help with fatigue so you're not going to be any stronger. But the muscle burn will likely be significantly diminished allowing you to push that much harder, which means in the long run you will be stronger.

Great customer service!!

When you call, they are always there. No listening to boring music, just a pleasant well informed employee who knows what they are talking about. Also, spending the time to explain about different components and such.

The only place I go for all my bike gear!!

These work every time

I've used sports legs for years with the same results. They work! The best way to describe is after a hard pull at the front of a paceline or a full out sprint the legs seem to recover quicker. I always use them before a tough ride.

Great product, makes a huge difference!

Rode a long century in the Smokies recently with over 10K of climbing and used the samples of this they were giving out, made a huge difference in recovery and legs barely sore the next day. Normally would have wiped me out. Rare to say that a product makes such a profound difference. I bought a whole bottle and take them now when I have a big ride!

Good for recovery

It's hard to say Sportcaps boost performance, but I definitely feel less achey and depleted the day after long and/or intense workouts and races. If you ride (or do other types of exercise) in hot conditions where you sweat a lot, it's worth taking a few capsules before and after your workout or race.

Been using for years and they absolutely knock out lactic acid

I've used sportlegs for years while running and cycling. They do make a big difference. I sometimes dissolve them in water before a run or ride or just take the capsules. I also put them in my drink I use while exercising. If you try them you won't be disappointed.

End leg cramps

I've been riding mountain bikes since 1988 and have suffered from leg cramps for many years. I attended the Sea Otter Classic last year and got some free sport legs samples. The vendor said they would help and he was right. Sport legs are now part of my regular bike ride routine. I always take 2 before and after a ride. No more leg cramps and I recover faster.

Helps you push through.

I notice a pretty big difference, on long rides, when I use these as recommended compared to when I do not. They will help push through some of the pain. They do not help prevent cramps.
