In this concise YouTube segment, Kelsey Higginson outlines the top hydration choices available at typical gas stations, organizing them into three training phases. For pre‑training, she recommends carbohydrate‑rich drinks such as Naked Juice, BodyArmor, and orange juice to fuel the body. During training, she emphasizes electrolyte replenishment, suggesting options like Electrolyte, Gatorade, BodyArmor, and Flash IV to maintain sodium, potassium, and chloride balance. Finally, for post‑training recovery, she advocates chocolate milk for its combined carbohydrate and protein content, helping athletes recover quickly for subsequent sessions.
