FLYCARB makes a sports nutrition product designed to help athletes perform at their best.

Each portion consists of the Bicarb Mix (precisely dosed sodium bicarbonate) combined with the Energy Mix (fast-acting carbohydrates such as maltodextrin and fructose). The gel formulation protects your stomach, while the energy mix provides 30-40g of carbs to fuel your pre-race preparation.

It's developed and tested by athletes to support performance in high-intensity endurance events such as running, HYROX, cycling, triathlon, and many other sports.

• Not suitable for children or pregnant women.
• Prepared in a facility that handles allergens. 
• Maximum use is twice per week. This product contains high amounts of sodium, frequent use increases risk of elevated blood pressure and water retention.
• Recommended to hydrate well and minimise your salt consumption on days you take FLYCARB.
• Informed Sport Certified. None of the FLYCARB ingredients are on WADA banned list.

During intense exercise, your muscles produce lactic acid. The build up of the acidic H+ ions contributes to fatigue. Sodium bicarbonate is an alkaline compound that acts as a natural buffer, helping maintain optimal pH balance and delaying the onset of muscle burn.

Multiple scientific studies show that bicarb:

• Increases time to exhaustion during high-intensity effort
• Improves repeat sprint ability
• Helps sustain power output during endurance events

Portion: Choose your portion size based on body weight: 12g if under 60 kg, 16g for over 60kg. Using the correct dose is important — too little may reduce the benefit, while too much can increase the risk of GI discomfort.

Time: Take FLYCARB 1.5-2 hours before your race or training. For events lasting over 90 minutes, take FLYCARB 60-90 minutes before the start.

Avoid consuming other nutrition 20 minutes before or after taking FLYCARB.

Method: Mix the Energy Mix with 60ml of water until smooth, then stir in the Bicarb Mix. Consume immediately — do not pre-mix in advance.

Detailed Instructions

Eat your pre-event meal as normal. We also recommend a carbohydrate snack (e.g. toast or banana) approximately 30 minutes before taking FLYCARB to support absorption. Avoid other nutrition for 20 minutes before and 20 minutes after taking FLYCARB. Sipping water is fine.

FLYCARB gel formulation significantly reduces GI issues compared to straight baking soda or capsules. However, always test it during training first — never try it for the first time on race day.

Take it with a light meal 30 minutes before consuming, and avoid other nutrition 20 minutes before and after taking FLYCARB.
