Product details
Product details
FANTÉ BUFFER is a sodium bicarbonate and carbohydrate protocol that will improve performance during high-intensity training sessions, or, in other words, above the threshold. This will encourage athletes to complete more sets and for longer periods of time.
The usage protocol and the GLUT 5 BUFFER single-dose are something totally new on the market.
Until now, bicarbonate was only available for use pre-workout or pre-race. With FANTÉ BUFFER, in a sachet format for pre-workout and single-dose for during training, you'll get the benefits of bicarbonate not only acutely but also during interval training. This improves bicarbonate levels in the body for longer and in a more stable manner than previously used.
Bicarbonate is an endogenously produced extracellular anion and an integral component of the body's primary pH buffering system. During high rates of anaerobic glycolysis (inevitable during high-intensity sessions), the muscle can produce excess hydrogen ions (H+), leading to environmental acidification.
With the bicarbonate ingested externally pre-training and during training of the FANTÉ BUFFER It facilitates the elimination of these H+ by reducing acidity, acting as a buffer system and promoting the body's ability to resist more during the most intense series.
By consuming FANTÉ BUFFER , you will be consuming between 0.15-0.2 g/kg of body weight if you are a beginner, and around 0.25-0.3 g/kg of bicarbonate if you are advanced, depending on your body weight. Always provide the recommended dose. ( 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 )
The 2018 International Olympic Committee Consensus Statement on Sports Nutrition concludes that sodium bicarbonate is one of five supplements that consistently improve performance in elite athletes.
HOW SHOULD I USE FANTÉ BUFFER?
WHAT KIND OF TRAINING
Alicia Ávila Sanchez, co-founder of FANTÉ, a graduate in physical activity and sports and an expert in sports physiology, has created two examples for both cycling and running athletes.
It should be noted that this is an example and should be individualized for each athlete, including their training zones and watts.
But generally speaking, we should use it during threshold training , during intense sessions between 30 seconds and 20 minutes.
SCIENCE BEHIND IT
There is convincing evidence that the use of bicarbonate by athletes competing in high intensity activities lasting 1 to 20 minutes, for example, swimming, rowing and middle distance running improves their performance with the consumption of sodium bicarbonate (4)
In addition to the long-standing protocol of 0.2-0.3 grams/kg of body weight of sodium bicarbonate 2-3h before exercise, a “loading” approach can be used with smaller amounts (e.g., 0.1 mg/kg of body weight of bicarbonate) consumed 1 dose every hour during competition .(7)
That's why our protocol goes a step further: we maintain bicarbonate intake at 5 grams per hour for every hour of training, maintaining bicarbonate levels for longer and achieving a much greater effect. Although the percentage improvement this protocol represents compared to the conventional protocol cannot yet be confirmed, progress is being made in this regard, and it is speculated that we would improve by another 2%.
POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS
The main side effect associated with sodium bicarbonate supplementation is gastrointestinal discomfort, with symptoms such as nausea, stomach pain, diarrhea, and vomiting. This is a serious practical problem for competitive athletes, as it can offset the potential performance benefits derived from improved cushioning.
Of the protocols proven in current scientific evidence, the best strategy to optimize blood bicarbonate levels and reduce the occurrence of gastrointestinal symptoms is to consume as explained in our BUFFER PROTOCOL.
If you are a beginner using baking soda, we recommend that you try the recommended amounts in the BEGINNER USE INSTRUCTIONS table and then, when you can tolerate the amounts, move on to the ADVANCED USE INSTRUCTIONS table.
If after all this, you still have gastrointestinal problems, try drinking twice the recommended amount of water to avoid hyperosmolarity in the intestine. If your recommended dose by weight is 400ml, try consuming 800ml with the bicarbonate.
