ZoneX Buffer Mix

What is ZoneX?
ZoneX is a performance-focused drink mix built to help endurance athletes train harder and race faster. It’s formulated with a precise blend of sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, citric acid, and magnesium sulfate - ingredients clinically shown to buffer lactic acid, delay fatigue, and improve high-intensity performance. No stimulants. No sugars. No BS. Just pure metabolic support.

How does it work?
During high-intensity efforts, your body rapidly produces lactic acid as a byproduct of anaerobic metabolism. This acid accumulates in your muscles which lowers pH — leading to that familiar burning sensation, muscular fatigue, and a drop in power output; fatigue.

ZoneX helps combat this by buffering the production of lactic acid. The sodium bicarbonate in our blend neutralises excess lactate before it interferes with performance. The addition of potassium bicarbonate, citric acid, and magnesium sulfate improves absorption, reduces the risk of GI issues, and helps maintain electrolyte balance—making the product more tolerable than standalone bicarbonate.

Who is it for?
ZoneX is for runners, triathletes, and endurance athletes who want to train at a higher intensity, recover faster between efforts, and compete at their true physiological ceiling. Whether your aim is to train more effectively, set new PB's, or beat your rivals - if you're serious about improving, ZoneX is for you.

When should I take it?
ZoneX is designed for any session where intensity matters—interval workouts, threshold runs, time trials, or races from 800m to the marathon. It’s particularly effective in events that require prolonged effort above lactate threshold, where acid accumulation would otherwise limit output.

Mix one sachet with 300-500ml of water and drink it 60–90 minutes before your session or race. You’ll feel the biggest difference during hard efforts—intervals, tempo runs, races, or anything that pushes you near your limit.

ZoneX contains a blend of performance-enhancing compounds, backed by science and built for endurance:

Sodium Bicarbonate - A powerful buffering agent that helps neutralize lactic acid buildup in muscles — delaying fatigue and helping you push harder, for longer. Proven effective in dozens of endurance performance studies.

Potassium Bicarbonate - Works alongside sodium bicarb to support acid buffering, while improving taste and reducing stomach distress.

Magneisum Sulfate - Supports muscle function, hydration, and endurance by helping your body contract and relax muscles more efficiently. It also plays a key role in reducing bloating and gut discomfort.

Citric Acid - Naturally found in citrus fruits, citric acid aids digestion and pH regulation. It also helps improve solubility and flavour balance in the mix.

Natural Lime Flavouring & Sweeteners - Used in trace amounts to give ZoneX its zingy lime punch taste. No artificial dyes, no added calories — just a clean, punchy flavour that goes down easy.

1. Shake one full sachet into 250–300ml of water. Shake or stir well until fully dissolved. This can be prepared the night before a race for ease of use.

2. Drink 60 to 90 minutes before your run. This gives your body time to absorb and activate the ZoneX blend.

3. Sip slowly - ZoneX is best consumed gradually over 10-15 minutes to reduce stomach discomfort.

4. Go to work - ZoneX is built for race day, hard sessions, or any time you're pushing the pace.
