What's a carb? A car part? What's a macro? A type of camera lens?

It tastes better than water or gatoraid.
...does it though?
Yes. It's not beer, but it's tasty. And not sweet, I don't like sweet drinks.

It tastes better than water or gatoraid. And burping is fun. And it costs less than BCAAs.

I was just doing it because it feels naughty to drink from (what looks like) a can of beer between sets of squats/deadlifts.

One of the perks of a home gym.

But now, SCIENCE is on my side!
