Energy bars and electrolyte drinks can be just as effective when you make them at home and you can even choose the flavours and healthy ingredients.<\/strong><br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Cashew energy bar<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Learning this recipe will come in handy for any indoor or outdoor training session as well as hiking or just long travels. It turns out you can make a healthier and tastier energy bar at home. And it\u2019s not even that complicated, the prep itself only takes a few minutes and then you just wait till they solidify in the fridge or freezer. This recipe yields 4 bars, each carrying about 48 g of carbs and 415 total kcal, which means that two of these bars can easily fuel over 4 hours of cycling. Also, keep in mind you can choose almost any type of nut as long as you keep the quantity. You can also replace up to half of the dates with different dried fruit to change up the flavour.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Macros per one 100-g bar \u2013 48 g carbs, 6 g of protein, 19 g of fat, 6 g of fibre, 396 kcal<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-controller-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-wrapper\"><iframe title=\"Eat to Ride: Homemade Endurance Raw Bar\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GwuxbkrBfXI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1\u00bd cup dates<br \/>\n\u00bd cup cashews (or a mix of nuts)<br \/>\n\u00bd cup coconut flakes<br \/>\n1 tbsp. coconut oil<\/p>\n<p><strong>Instructions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. Chop the dates and nuts. Put into a blender and mix.<br \/>\n2. Add coconut oil and flakes and create a more or less homogenous dough.<br \/>\n3. Shape the dough into a brick, cover in foil, and freeze for 30 minutes.<br \/>\n4. Take out of the freezer, cut into bars of your preferred size and cover in foil again.<br \/>\n5. Store in a cold place. Transport in sealed containers.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Coconut electrolyte drink<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With the energy bars safely in your pocket, the only thing that\u2019s missing is an electrolyte drink. These drinks can get quite expensive, especially if you ride in warm weather a lot or you tend to sweat heavily. Thankfully, you can create something just as effective at replenishing lost minerals and fluids easily at home. The electrolyte drinks in the following recipe contain a medium amount of carbohydrates, which helps fluid uptake and a little bit of salt and coconut, which makes them a good source of sodium and potassium, the most important electrolytes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Macros per 500 ml of drink \u2013 28 g carbs, 1 g protein, 116 kcal<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-controller-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-wrapper\"><iframe title=\"Cyclists and Hydration - Homemade Electrolyte Drink\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lLAUv9etEoI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tropical Blend<br \/>\n2 \u00bd cups water<br \/>\n1 cup coconut water<br \/>\n\u00bc cup coconut sugar (or your preferred sweetener)<br \/>\n\u00bc tsp salt<br \/>\nTaste of Honey<br \/>\n3 \u00bd cups water<br \/>\n\u00bc cup pineapple juice<br \/>\n2 tbsp coconut sugar (or your preferred sweetener)<br \/>\n1 tbsp honey<br \/>\n\u00bc tsp salt<\/p>\n<p><strong>Directions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.
