Fight leg fatigue with a boost of SportLegs.
When the powder is piled deep in the hills, there's nothing worse than a creeping revolt brewing in your thighs after only a few runs. Ok, quitting early because of sapped legs is actually worse. Fight the fatigue with SportLegs. In a sports world swollen with supplements, SportLegs actually delivers on its promise to reduce fatigue in leg muscles and keep you pushing, pedaling and schussing longer. SportLegs has three ingredients: calcium, magnesium and Vitamin D. Pop the pills before activity and the mixture works to reduce the production of lactic acid, delaying the thigh burn. SportLegs doesn't stop leg fatigue; it just gives you more time before you're spent. Pop'em worry free: Everyone, from the FDA to the NCAA to an army of top-tier athletes, supports SportLegs.

"I care immensely about what goes into my body, and I like the simple and effective ingredients in SportLegs. I definitely notice a reduction in accumulated muscle fatigue when I use it before hard efforts. I notice the biggest difference when I use SportLegs before grueling 20 minute short track races."
-- Jermey Horgan-Kobelski
The Experiment:Four 'Lab Rats' popped SportLegs before and after hard efforts for a month.
The Hypothesis: SportLegs contains lactate forms of calcium and magnesium. Taken an hour before exercise, it pre-loads your bloodstream with lactate and tricks your muscles into thinking they don't need to make more - a sneaky way to raise your lactate threshold and boost performance, according to unpublished research by scientists at Ohio's Kent State University.
The Results:'It's like a good day in a bottle,' chorus the rats. 'My legs kept going and feeling fresh, even up the final climb,' said one racer after a six-hour singlespeed mountain bike enduro. 'It's the kind of feeling you have when you're in a sweet groove,' said another who used SportLegs over eight hard rides, including two crits. The rec riders didn't notice exceptional performance gains, but did report feeling fresher. 'It took longer to reach the burn point,'said one. ' My legs burned on steep climbs, but I was able to ride faster, ' said another
