Starfish and others-

Our ingredients label has to adhere to meticulous FDA guidelines. A glance suggests SportLegs is just regular old cal/mag and vitamin D. As clever Starfish noticed, it's not: It's lactate forms of those minerals, and that's what makes the difference. See, "lactic acid" IS lactate. It's what your muscles exchange to handle short sprint-duration energy needs. And most sports are just sequences of sprint activity. The better your muscles exchange lactate, the faster, longer and more effortlessly you can go. The problem is that when you begin sports, your muscles start making way more than they can use constructively, which causes a technical domino effect which subsequently lowers your Lactate Threshold, the point where you run into the "burn" and accumulate the nasties which contribute to next-day soreness. Your muscles continue to make too much lactate until your blood lactate level rises. But taking SportLegs an hour before riding raises your blood lactate the same way. So you trick your muscles into not making too much in the first place- as Bicycling magazine wrote, "a sneaky way to raise your lactate threshold and boost performance." We think using something healthy to help sidestep the biggest turnoffs about riding isn't so much sneaky as just plain smart. And it sure works, doesn't it?

We're grateful to you all for helping spread the word about a good thing. Oddly, "team testosterone" members don't seem nearly as willing to tell anyone else about SportLegs.
