pre - h2o, never have time for anyhting else
my favorite post is - starbucks venti caramel frappuccino lite with 2-3 shots.
if it was a long hard workout and need some extra cals i'll 86 the lite ;)

If a long workout - like a 5 - 7 hour bike then
E3 before,
E3 and water during,
Ultragen immediately after, and then a
Smoothie w/ protein or protein shake, and water following that.

I like to drink a tall glass of cold milk and wash down my vitamins. Complex carb and protein.
I start my workout about 40 minutes later. I sip some of my during drink a few minutes before.

For a workout of 1hour or less I usually drink H20.
For after I have some water and yogurt.

For a workout of more than 1 hour I usually drink, Amino Vital mixed with Carbo Pro.
For after I have some Amino Vital/Carbo Pro Mix and some Accelerade.

I have to agree on the wheat grass taste comment but I hear it is pretty good for you. I am also not a big fan of "spring mix" salad for about the same reason. It looks like the weeds in my back yard yet the grocery store wants to charge more for it than lettuce. I don't quite get that.

Pre and during - Whatever is on sale at the time. I kinda like to try new things. Costco has a pretty big cylinder of Gatorade Powder for cheap that I am working on right now.
Post - Endurox Chocolate or Vanilla. A beer every once in a while. Coors light, Anchor Steam and Guiness are my favorites there.

For short workouts,Water or Gator Aid Endurance. For long Workouts (two hours or more) Amino from the folks at Ultrafit. (branch chain amino acids,no fructose,good carbs...no electros though, so I supplement)
Post workout I've used R4 for about 5 years and feel it works for me.Lately though, using the Amino post long workouts too. Some days a really cold Pepsi...liquid carbs and sodium. Of course while not training for anything serious...beer and popsicles.

I love popsicles! mmm mmm mmm :)

I don't know... I have this whole dislike of beer (sorry, I know it's evil... ;))

They are ok... I've never been big on drinking (I've never been drunk...) so when I do drink it tends to be things where I can't taste the alcohol (aka girly drinks ;))

Margaritas are great after a race. They have all the nutritional things that you need, carbs from the mix, salt that your body badly needs, a bit of alcohol to help your muscles relax and even protein if you include the worm from the tequila bottle! :D

Kylie don't feel bad. I don't like beer either unless it has fruit in it - corona w/lime or hefenweisen (however that's spelled! w/ lemon). The only two I can stand. :p

I usually just drink water, sometimes gatorade before/during. After - Strawberry Shakes!

Lisa :)

pre and during generic gatorade from costco. post i drink a protein drink actually for bodybuilders. I choose it because it is a mixture of 4 different types of protein and delivers 60 gm of protein in 2 scoops. lots of bang for the buck. i prefer the vanilla flavor mixed in oj with frozen strawberries or blue berries and if I have a bannana I will add that as well. Works great, I'm never sore the next day. Even after my century bike ride or my 18 mile run.

It varies for me. Summer the post drink has lots of fruit, cause it's cheap to buy. I get the older stuff from the fruit stand like 7 kiwis for 1$!! But as it wains to fall and winter THAT drops off. Mostly post workout drinks are milk w Endurox4 whey drink though.
