Hi,
New to The Feed? I'm Matt, the founder, and I'm going to be your personal Feed concierge to help you build your first order.
Before we get started, I have a really unique offer that I've never done before—I'm giving you 40% off your first order today.
Use my link here: https://thefeed.com/mattnew40off
This is only for first-time customers, so if that's you, let's take advantage of it.
How to Build Your First Feed Order
Look, I know our site has over 5,000 products. That's overwhelming. So I'm going to walk you through exactly what I'd recommend to get you started—the same products I use myself or recommend to athletes just getting into this stuff.
1. Start with Hydration
Everyone needs a great electrolyte hydration. Here are my top choices for powder mixes you shake in your bottle:
Love SALTY? Go for LMNT (1000mg sodium, this will make you want to drink more)
Low Sugar + Flavor? Go for Mortal (8g sugar, 900mg sodium, my daily go-to)
Best Value + Amazing Flavor: The Feed Lab Hydration (only $0.83 per serving, don't skip this)
No Sugar + Great Flavors: Dr Hydrate (zero calories, pure electrolytes)
2. Everyone's Taking Creatine Now
If you're not taking creatine yet, you're leaving free performance gains on the table, and frankly just optimal health based on the current research. Most think Creatine is just for gym bros, but that's old thinking. It is for every athlete and now showing other benefits balancing mood and well being. I traditionally took 5g every single day, and I'm moving up to 10g per day this year—helps with strength, recovery, and honestly, my mood.
Here's where to start:
Most popular, flavored or unflavored: Thorne Creatine
Taste like Sweet Tarts, I keep these on my desk: Momentous Creatine Chews
Delicious gummies, easiest way to stay consistent: Create Creatine Gummies
Best value, same quality as the expensive stuff: The Feed Lab Creatine
3. Get Your Protein Shake Going
You can mix your creatine right into this. I do a protein shake almost every day now—it's transformed my recovery and body composition.
Fruity Flavor: Ascent Clear Whey (20g of protein, game-changer, tastes like a Piña Colada or Orange Creamsicle)
Full Recovery: SwissRX Total Recovery (19g protein + carbs + everything you need post-workout)
Plant Based: Kyoku Breakfast Shake (17g of brown rice protein, actually tastes good)
Best Value: The Feed Lab Whey Protein (25g of protein, clean ingredients, best price)
Want to supercharge your shake? Check out Formulas Foundation—it includes all the performance boosts for your shake in one: Creatine, Collagen, Synthesis (strength peptide), and Gut Armor (L-Glutamine). It's everything I add to mine. You just add it your shake, no measuring, no scooping, great for travel.
4. Now Let's Get to Carbs
If you're training more than an hour, you need fuel. I recommend starting with 60g of carbs per hour and building up to 80g per hour as your gut adapts.
There are lots of ways to get carbs. Pick what sounds best to you:
Drink it: Maurten Drink 320 (80g carbs per bottle, sip throughout your workout)
Chew it: Precision Chews (30g carbs, easy to carry and consume, not super sweet)
Gel it: Amacx Drink Gel (30g carbs, liquid, great texture, take 2 per hour)
5. Performance Boost
I have lots of these we could go into, but start with SwissRX Nitric Oxide Pro.
It's our most popular performance supplement, and personally, I find it the most immediately effective. It increases oxygen-rich blood flow to your muscles—you'll feel the difference.
Ideally, take 2 caps every morning (it lasts a full 24 hours). Or you can take it 90 minutes before your workout if you want to test it first.
