Hi,
FlyCarb BiCarb just launched three new flavors, including two caffeinated options.
What's New:
Peach with Caffeine - Already a fan favorite. Clean peach flavor with 120mg of caffeine per serving.
Original with Caffeine - Straightforward unflavored option, same 120mg caffeine boost.
Mint - No caffeine. A refreshing option for race day.
How It Works:
During all-out efforts, your muscles produce hydrogen ions faster than your body can clear them. These ions make your muscles more acidic, which interferes with muscle contraction and forces you to slow down. Sodium bicarbonate increases your blood's buffering capacity, neutralizing hydrogen ions so you can maintain higher power output longer.
The caffeinated versions attack fatigue from two angles. Bicarbonate buffers the muscle burn. Caffeine sharpens your central nervous system, motor units fire harder, and hard efforts feel easier. One drink, dual mechanism, no extra timing.
The Benefits:
Push harder, longer. Sustain race pace deeper into efforts that used to break you.
Delay the burn. Buffer lactic acid buildup so you can hold threshold longer.
Stomach-friendly formula. FlyCarb uses an energy gel base that wraps sodium bicarbonate in maltodextrin and fructose, helping protect your stomach. Way easier to tolerate than raw powder or capsules.
Weight-based dosing. Available in four precise portions (12g, 16g, 20g, 24g) matched to your body weight. No guesswork.
How to Take It:
Timing: Take 90 minutes to 2 hours before your race or hardest training session. For events longer than 90 minutes, you can reduce timing to 60-90 minutes before start. Have a light meal about 30 minutes before taking BiCarb. Avoid consuming other nutrition 20 minutes before or after.
Preparation: Mix the Energy component with 60ml of water until smooth, then stir in the Bicarb component. Consume immediately, do not pre-mix hours in advance.
Frequency: Use a maximum of twice per week for your most important sessions or races. Stay well-hydrated and minimize other sodium intake on bicarb days.
Dosing by Body Weight:
Under 132 lbs (under 60kg): 12g
132–176 lbs (60–80 kg): 16g
176–198 lbs (80–90 kg): 20g
198+ lbs (Over 90 kg): 24g
Proper dosing is critical. Too little may reduce buffering benefits, while too much can increase the risk of GI discomfort.
Pro tip: Test it in training before race day. Every athlete responds differently.
