If for some reason you are performing a workout that is longer than 60 minutes in duration a sports drink can be beneficial at limiting the release of catabolic hormones, but you shouldn't be working out much longer than that anyway.

If you're trying to gain weight and are looking to spike insulin, then sipping some gatorade during a workout can also be beneficial. I start sipping my PWO shake during my workout and usually finish it off throughout the 20 minutes or so of stretching that I do afterward.



The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
