Same effectiveness but it doesn't dissolve very well in water. Plus its "poofy". A big cloud of white dust every time you try to scoop it out and pour it into water. It remains in clumps rather than dissolving.

Gatorade Endurance formula powder with lime flavour is very good for hydrating in any season and after workouts. Gatorade powder is easy to Mix with water and has good portion of all electrolytes.

I like the drink mix. Awesome flavor and results. The bottle is not spill proof and leaks all over the place. Better off with a $10.00 bottle from Walmart.

Most water bottles are not the size listed on the label for mixing. Why not put the most common bottles sizes in directions for mixing.

When I did Ironman Florida Nov 2017 the drink was very strong , not like it was mixed good or was liquid formula , but powder . Now using the powder for 4 months , I am used to it , knowing the liquid will taste better . So use what they give on the course. Been using it on indoor rides and all outdoor rides and runs .

I just started training for marathons this month and haven't had the Endurance Formula since May 2017 (old formula). I read the reviews and decided to try this new formula because all my races give this out on the course. I can definitely tell the taste has changed and it tastes like vitamin water. Half of powder dissolves in water after 5 minutes of shaking my bottle and the other half clumps into balls at the bottom (picture attached). When I transfer the bottle into my smaller running bottles it gets clogged in the outlet. It seems like from previous reviews this problem has been going on since day one of the new formula. I highly doubt a $3 billion company will fix this product. I am basically forced to use this product as I said before my races are going to give this out. After these races I will switch products and find a better solution. Why can't Gatorade fix its errors? It's not like your being sued or have a recall yet which will cost more money!

If any of the thousands of athletes using this product at an on course aid station during a race want to understand in advance how much sodium they will be drinking, say per litre or per bottle on the bike it is very difficult. The nutritional label has how many grams of powder per serve, but does not say how much liquid per serve! (i.e. what the concentration is)

I needed to try this product prior to being exposed to it at the Ironman Maryland Oct. 7. Didn't want to taste it for the first time on the course. It has a completely different taste to it and I would say that the previous Gatorade is better tasting. I wouldn't purchase it if it wasn't for it being used in the race. That would be the only reason I would recommend it.
