Victus 02 During: Drink Mix

Finding the right combo of performance nutrition can be complicated.

That's why Victus created a system of complementary essentials for each phase of your training: Before, During, and After.

Victus collaborated with 37 researchers, scientists, and Master’s and PhD students for over 18 months, investing more than 9,000 hours into research, and used 1,128 scientific publications and RCTs. The science behind it is complex, but the result is simple, effective and easy to use. 

Victus 02 During

This drink mix keeps your fueling strategy simple. It contains 45g of carbohydrates and 343g of sodium, making it both a hydration and fuel solution. It also minimizes GI-issues with a 2:1:1.5 ratio and three different sources of carbs (maltodextrin, glucose and fructose). 

Most fuels seesaw between too little carbs or too little sodium at the expense of the other, but Victus got the balance just right. 

The simplicity of needing only 2 units per hour to get in 90 grams of carbs per hour is both easy to gauge and quite cost-efficient. 

Mixed with 620ml of water, 02 During has an osmolarity of 276 (mOsmol/L) – meaning it’s isotonic. Whether you're a professional athlete or just looking to get more out of your training day to day, this is an easy way to improve your fueling strategy.

Just like the others, it's NZVT-tested.

Highlights: 

• Carbohydrates 45 g
• 2:1:1.5 carbohydrate ratio ensures fast and sustained energy release while minimizing gastrointestinal issues.
• Sodium (Sodium Chloride) 343 mg
• Fuel & Hydration all in one
• One unit for low-intensity or sub-2 hour sessions (45g per hour)
• Two units for high-intensity or long sessions (90g per hour)
• Third Party Tested

How to Use Victus Drink Mix During:

Mix one serving with 620 ml water and use every 30-45 minutes, depending on your carb and hydration strategy. Their sachets make it easy to pack them with you when you hit the road.

The use of Victus 02 During depends on your training duration and intensity:

Less than 1 hour: The body typically has sufficient glycogen stores for activities under an hour, so additional carbohydrate intake isn't necessary. However, for high-intensity sessions (Zone 4/5), consider using 02 During drink mix. Ensure to drink water as required.

1-2 hours: During this period, aim for 30-60 (45 average) grams of carbohydrates per hour - equivalent to 1 serving per hour. Remember to monitor hydration and replace electrolytes as needed.

2+ hours: For extended endurance activities, consume 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour
