As you all know, I’m a huge fan of Vega for their 100% REAL plant-based ingredients — their smoothie infusion rocks my face off. I was beyond psyched when Kelly (a rep from the lovely company) let me know that they were launching a sports drink.

Instead of the high fructose mumbo jumbo, artificial ingredients and colors, the new Vega Sport contains organic plant-based ingredients.

Here’s some info from the website:

Vega Sport Performance Optimizer provides a complete array of key performance enhancing benefits including:

  • Immediate and sustaining energy
  • Increases endurance, aerobic and anaerobic capacity
  • Enhances mental focus and motor performance
  • Reduces stress and enhances immune system function
  • Replenishes electrolytes lost during exercise
  • Reduces inflammation, joint and muscle pain
  • Improves body composition and reduces body fat
  • Supports healthy weight management

Ingredients:

  • Coconut oil
  • Kombucha
  • Yerba Mate
  • Green Tea
  • Rhodiola Extract (which improves mood, physical and mental performance)
  • Panax ginseng extract (for immune system and stress reduction)
  • Devil’s claw extract (for joint vitality)
  • Tumeric extract (increase circulation)
  • Ginger extract (reduces inflammation and aids digestion)
  • Electrolytes
  • Sprouted whole grain brown rice syrup (for healthy carb fuel)
  • Palm nectar (for sustaining energy)
  • So in a nutshell, it’s the perfect pre-workout beverage and I CAN’T WAIT TO TRY SOME!!!!

So here’s what the lucky winner gets:

– A tub of Vega Sport (valued at $49.99) in lemon lime or acai berry

  18. Ariela on October 13, 2009 at 8:15 pm

    Amazing! The smoothie infusion totally rocks my face off too! I love that it is completely natural and plant based and it sustains me for hours!

    I would drink the vega sports drink EVERY tuesday and thursday before I teach my 7 am pilates class so that I could motor through that class from 7-8, go to real (ah!) class from 8-2 then teach my second pilates class from 4-5. I need some major energy on those days!

    Thanks for this awesome giveaway and for your even more amazing/inspiring blog 🙂

  19. Sara on October 13, 2009 at 8:16 pm

    I would use this as fuel for wrangling two small children. That, and wine. Wine is a mother’s gatorade. (Uh, did I just say that out LOUD?)

    • Fitnessista on October 13, 2009 at 9:11 pm

      LOL!!! that’s going in the greatest quotes of all time

  24. Teri on October 13, 2009 at 8:40 pm

    Oh pretty please me! I’m training for a marathon, teach classes at the gym (LOVE that you post your spin mixes), and try to squeeze in yoga. What would I NOT use this for is the question?? 🙂

  25. Lauren on October 13, 2009 at 8:40 pm

    I would definitely like to fuel with some Vega for my long distance runs!

  26. Justine on October 13, 2009 at 8:47 pm

    I would use it after a run or an intense cardio or strength training sesh most likely 🙂 Especially on a weekend long run. I love Vega, its fantastic for vegans like myself! haha.

    Great contest idea, by the way.. however I don’t have a blog and don’t really use my Twitter. I’m a little confused if we have to do all 3 or how many of them..? Should I send an email too?

    • Fitnessista on October 13, 2009 at 9:10 pm

      you don’t have to do all 3– it’s just 3 chances to win!

  27. Diane on October 13, 2009 at 8:48 pm

  30. Chantal on October 13, 2009 at 8:54 pm

    I’d use it after one of your summer shape up lower body workouts that I did last week that both literally and figurately kicked my a**! And it felt awesome!

  31. Andy on October 13, 2009 at 8:55 pm

  32. maggie b on October 13, 2009 at 8:57 pm

  33. Cate on October 13, 2009 at 8:58 pm

  36. jds on October 13, 2009 at 9:04 pm

    for the 10k im training for!

  37. Randi on October 13, 2009 at 9:04 pm

    I’m training for my 5th marathon right now – the Houston Marathon, so I would use it for a recovery drink after my weekly medium long and long weekend runs. I’m curious to see how Vega would compare to the recovery drink I currently use.

  38. Annie T. on October 13, 2009 at 9:05 pm

    I would definitely use this to help me prep for my very first 5k! I have never been much of a runner, but decided to start. It has been going well, but I know that this would really spur me on!

  39. Brianna on October 13, 2009 at 9:07 pm

    I love love love vega. I would use it to refuel after my kettlebell workouts. I am in search of a vegan post-workout drink!

  40. Heather on October 13, 2009 at 9:07 pm

    AWESOME STUFF!!! I normally do hilly outdoor walk/jogs or the Wii Active, so I’d use this afterward 🙂

  41. Morgan on October 13, 2009 at 9:09 pm

    For running!

  42. Morgan on October 13, 2009 at 9:12 pm

  45. Tyler on October 13, 2009 at 9:25 pm

    I would drink it before or after a nice walk or run. Sounds delish!

  46. Marian on October 13, 2009 at 9:27 pm

  47. annalisa on October 13, 2009 at 9:28 pm

    I would drink it before or after a walk/run.

  48. Teresa on October 13, 2009 at 9:29 pm

    Been reading your blog for awhile and I guess this giveaway forced me to finally delurk- long overdue I know. Anyways, if I won the giveaway, I would use the vega to fuel me for my running workouts. But really I would love to slip it to my family who prefers gatorade and other shall we say “less healthy” food in general. What can I say I care about their health!

    • Fitnessista on October 13, 2009 at 10:12 pm

      hooray for de-lurking! thanks for saying hi and hopefully we’ll see ya around more often 😀
