Customizing your e load ™

Sweat electrolyte concentration increases proportionate to sweat rate, and the e load™ customization system is founded on this principle.

For starters, it is important that you strictly follow the e load™ mixing instructions found on the label. NEVER USE more e load™ powder AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR ZONE CAPS™ . Adding more e load™ than the instructions advise will result in a drink that is too sweet and that has too much flavoring, a sure recipe for nausea and vomiting when you are pushing yourself. Finally, don't let the small size of the ZONE CAPS™ fool you - they pack a punch from an Electrolyte and MulitCitrate™ point of view.

Customizing is an easy three - step process, summarized by the following equation:

Temperature	+	Sweat Profile	=	Customized Formula
(Step 1)		(Step 2)		(Step 3)

Step 1: Temperature

What is the temperature range in which you be be training / competing?

Training Conditions
Temperature Range	Zone
< 60° F/16° C	Low
60°-75° F/16°-23° C	Medium
> 75° F/23° C	High

Fahrenheit = F
Celsius = C

Step 2: Sweat Profile

Using the chart below, determine which Sweat Profile, Light, Medium or Heavy, is the best reflection of you:

Sweat Profile
Sweat Profile	Characteristics
Light	You are comfortable both at rest and while exerting in the heat Hot weather rarely bothers you-in fact, you prefer it You barely break a sweat with exertion in the heat
Medium	You tolerate heat relatively well at rest, but exertion in the heat may be challenging You dampen your clothing with exertion in the heat You rarely salt stain your clothing
Heavy	In the heat, you may feel uncomfortable at rest, and exerting yourself is very challenging You prefer more moderate temperatures You soak your clothing with exertion in the heat You frequently have salt stains on your workout gear
