Isotonic Sports drink gives you fast hydration and energy when you need it most. If you train hard and push your body to its limits, Isotonic Drink can be a key factor in maintaining performance.

The BCAAs are known for their anabolic & anti-catabolic properties. The appropriate ratio of these three (2:1:1); before, during & after endurance exercise, may help in recovery of muscle tissues.

Whey protein is the ideal protein for such individuals because it is rapidly digested and is a rich source of amino-acids for muscle recovery. Each serving of Musclemantra 100% Whey Protein provides 25 grams of whey protein with low levels of carbohydrates, fat and cholesterol.
Muscle Mantra’s Isolate 
Musclemantra Whey Protein Isolate contains 90% whey protein with negligible carbohydrates and fat. It is ideal for athletes and body builders as a protein supplement for muscle building and recovery. Protein Isolate is meant for athletes, body builders, sports-persons and active adults who are unable to meet their body’s protein requirements through routine dietary intake.
How to set up your bicycle?
A “good enough” way to determine proper seat height is the heel-to-pedal method. It might help to have someone hold your bike while doing this.
Take a seat, then have one pedal go completely down in the six o’clock position. Your knee should be completely straight here when making contact to this low pedal.
If your knee is bent, you need to increase the saddle height. If you lose contact with the pedal, lower your seat.
For the most part, you’re going to want your seat angled so it’s parallel to the ground. Try this first, then you can adjust it slightly if you find different positions more comfortable.
While handlebar reach can be a bit more personal, in general you don’t want to strain yourself to control the bike.
When seated, you should easily be able to reach the brakes and shifters. Your elbows should have a slight bend, not locked. Adjust your seat first, get that dialed in, then adjust the bars themselves for your ideal setting.
What gear to purchase for biking?
After initially purchasing a bike, there are a few other things you should consider
In my opinion, it is imperative to own and wear a helmet when cycling. I don’t think it should be a law that everyone has to, but I think everyone should of his own volition anyway.
One of the most awesome things about riding bikes to get places is that you don’t have to park a car. You can just ride right up to the place, lock your bike, and go inside. You will need a lock if you’d like your bike to be there when you come out.
Get yourself a good set of blinky lights for your bike. Outside has the unmitigated gaul of getting dark without our consent. It’s wise to have lights in these cases, so that you can be as visible as possible on the roadway.
