The G Series is an evolution of the original Gatorade product that offers a 1-2-3 approach to meeting athletes’ hydration and nutrition needs with products designed specifically for before, during and after sporting activity.

The G Series has been developed by scientists from the Gatorade Sports Science Institute in collaboration with some of the world’s top athletes to help them get more out of their sports performance as they look for an edge to reach their goals.

Athletes including Dwyane Wade (basketball), Usain Bolt (athletics), Serena Williams, (tennis), and Peyton Manning, (American Football) collaborated with the Gatorade scientists, who also conducted a comprehensive study of over 10,000 athletes across the United States.

The scientists applied the athlete feedback to their 20 years of expertise in sports nutrition to develop functional products to address the athlete’s needs for performance.

Accordingly, each product of the G Series was designed to meet the distinct nutrition and hydration needs BEFORE, DURING or AFTER training or competition.

In response to finding athletes seek energy to kick-start their sporting activity but don’t want to feel too full, the GSSI created Gatorade Prime 01.

Gatorade Prime 01 has been developed as “pre-game fuel” taken 15 minutes before a workout or competition. The convenient 118ml pouch has 25g of carbohydrates to deliver carbohydrate energy to working muscles; as well as electrolytes with 110mg of sodium and 35mg of potassium and B vitamins to aid energy metabolism as part of daily diet.

For during the game or training, the original Gatorade Perform 02 continues to offer athletes a scientifically backed blend of fluids to help rehydrate, electrolytes to promote replacement of what athletes lose in sweat, and carbohydrate energy to fuel working muscles and enhance athletic performance.

The scientists also found athletes understood and wanted to address the importance of muscle recovery to get ready for their next training or competition, creating Gatorade Recover 03 protein recovery beverage in response.

Formulated for use within 30-60 minutes after activity, the 500ml bottle contains 16 g of protein to help promote muscle recovery, as well as 14 g of carbohydrate to aid in muscle uptake of amino acids supplied by the protein to recover faster as well as 250 mg of sodium, and 95 mg of potassium to help athletes fully replace electrolytes lost during training and competition.
