The Importance of Hydration and Nutrition

Mountain biking in Aruba’s warm climate demands endurance, strength, and quick recovery. Staying properly hydrated and fueled is essential to keep your energy levels high, avoid muscle cramps, and maintain peak performance throughout the race. Let’s take a closer look at how BORN products can help you optimize your performance before, during, and after the race.


Pre-Race Preparation

Stay Hydrated with BORN Watts & Minerals In the hours leading up to the race, it’s crucial to ensure your body is well-hydrated and ready for action. BORN Watts & Minerals is the ideal drink to consume before the race, as it contains essential minerals that boost your endurance. Drinking 500 to 1000 ml of BORN Watts & Minerals within 3 hours before the race will ensure you’re starting fully hydrated and ready to tackle the trails.


Fuel Up with a BORN Xtra Bar

About 30-60 minutes before the race, eat a BORN Xtra Bar. It’s a tasty energy bar that provides a balanced mix of carbohydrates, proteins and fats to top up your energy stores. This bar is easily digestible, so you won't feel heavy or bloated—just energized and ready to ride!


During the Race

Stay Hydrated with BORN ISO Pro Once you’re on the course, staying hydrated is crucial. BORN ISO Pro is an isotonic sports drink that keeps you hydrated while replenishing the essential electrolytes lost through sweat, such as sodium, potassium, and magnesium. Aim to drink about 750 ml per hour to stay hydrated and maintain energy levels.


Boost Your Energy with BORN Super Liquid Gel Mountain biking can be grueling, and you’ll need quick energy to keep going. BORN Super Liquid Gel is packed with fast-absorbing carbohydrates and electrolytes to give you an instant energy boost when you need it most. Consume one gel every 30-45 minutes, especially before intense climbs or sections that demand extra power, to maintain your performance and avoid hitting the wall.


Post-Race Recovery

Replenish and Recover with BORN Recovery Shake Your recovery process starts as soon as you cross the finish line. Within 30 minutes after the race, mix up a BORN Recovery Shake. This drink contains the perfect blend of carbohydrates and proteins to help refuel your glycogen stores, repair muscle tissue, and speed up your recovery. It’s essential for reducing muscle soreness and preparing your body for your next adventure.
