ORIGINAL

X THEY SAY

This isotonic drink signifi cantly

boosts your endurance levels, be it on a

run or at the gym. E ectively renewing your

electrolytes as you exercise your heart out,

you can’t go wrong with a bot le, no mat er

the workout.

X WHAT WE LIKED

As usual, what we’ve always

expected of 100Plus: reliability when

it comes to quenching thirsts. It’s an

isotonic variant, so it’s worth gulping

down when you sweat buckets. "This

option has similar qualities to Lucozade

Sport's, just that it has a di erent taste

profi le," says Jaclyn. "Like other sports

drinks, its sodium levels are controlled

and it hydrates very well."

X WHAT WE DIDN’T LIKE

The only gripe is the drink only

tastes best when chilled.

HYDRAPAK

SHAPE-SHIFT

2L RESERVOIR

$59,

X THEY SAY

Simple, fl exible and ultra-durable,

this product is a hydration machine.

Its slim profi le and enhanced stability

reduce sloshing when on the go,

while allowing for fast fi lling and a

leak-proof seal. This bot le is also the

only reservoir on the market that is

fully reversible.

X WHAT WE LIKED

Sloshing of water within the bag while

running is kept to a minimum, and it is

especially useful when you have the

option to carry either 2 litres or 2½

litres simply by unlocking or locking the

reservoir. Cleaning is easy since you can

fl ip the reservoir inside out.

X WHAT WE DIDN’T LIKE

Not much, but the tubing can get a

lit le bit fl imsy and hard to handle

at times.

TRAIL

MIX PLUS

$69,

http://www.keypowersports.sg

X THEY SAY

This sports belt features an

ergo-shaped soft monofi lament

design that eliminates bounce and

enhances stability, while having two

300ml fl asks for you to store your

hydration drinks. Its pouch allows you

to securely fasten your phone with

you as you run, so you wont have to

worry about your valuables as you

pound the pavement.

X WHAT WE LIKED

It’s pret y easy to use, and there’s

limited bounce, which is quite a

surprise. Suitable for long-distance

hit ers, the additional compartments

are useful when you need a quick

gel fi x.

X WHAT WE DIDN’T LIKE

First-time users will need to get used

to running with a utility belt, despite

all the measures taken to make sure

there is as lit le hindrance as possible

to one’s running momentum.
