I am an elite endurance athlete and head ski coach. I have been using Acli-Mate® Mountain Sports Drink for over a year. I generally use Acli-Mate® on a daily basis as a healthy sport drink to boost my energy and keep me hydrated. I am already acclimated to the Crested Butte mountain area so it’s greatest benefit to me is as a sport drink. When using Acli-Mate® my energy levels are consistently higher and more stable. I don’t notice any bonking after using it. I think the B-Vitamins and adrenal herbs, in addition to the electrolytes, really contribute to this. I consume 2 or more gallons of fluids daily. In addition to being effective at increasing and helping me sustain my energy levels, Acli-Mate® to keep me drinking as water can get a little boring. Acli-Mate® is the only sport drink that I’ve come across that adds easily absorbed calcium and magnesium as well. Earlier in my career I suffered from repeated stress fractures. I realize that extreme endurance sports deplete the body of calcium and magnesium; if it isn’t available in the blood, it comes from my bones. Using Acli-Mate® during exercise helps me feel more at ease that I am not pulling calcium and magnesium from my bones and putting myself at risk for a repeat stress fracture. Acli-Mate tastes great, goes down easy, and is a healthy alternative to stimulant sport drinks. I highly recommend mountain athletes give it a try. Though I use it exclusively as a sport drink, I’ve heard great reports about the benefits to the mountain visitor – active or not – with regards to altitude sickness. |

Wendy is a California native, who cut her ski edges as a youth at legendary Squaw Valley, spent seven years with the U.S. Ski Team, chasing World Cup points around the globe, and earned a spot on the '92 Winter Olympic team. After leaving the national team in the mid-1990s, Fisher's competitive spirit led her to Crested Butte and the realm of extreme skiing, in which she won two world titles and dominated the pro tour in 1998. Throw in some Gravity Games and X-Games experience and extreme skiing movie making for the likes of Matchstick Productions and Warren Miller, and there's nothing Fisher hasn't sampled in the high-stakes, high-speed, high-adrenalin world of cutting-edge skiing. |
