Bicarb System
The Maurten Bicarb System is an advanced sports fuel used by athletes during high-intensity exercise — where the boundaries of effort and power start to limit performance.
The Bicarb System contains a mixing bowl, the hydrogel component, the bicarbonate component, and access to the Bicarb Digital System.
The Maurten Bicarb System does for bicarbonate what Maurten Gel 100 and Drink Mixes did for carbohydrates — use Hydrogel Technology to encapsulate the bicarb and carry it through the stomach to be absorbed.
Lactate is not the enemy — it’s a fuel source generated during all-out, high-intensity exercise. It’s the increase in acidity during these efforts that overwhelms the muscles and leads to exhaustion.
Large doses of sodium bicarbonate counteract the negative effects of the rising acidity, but there’s always been a catch — stomach issues that cancel out any performance gains.
The Bicarb System cracks the code to deliver the smoothest, most effective bicarb experience ever.
What is the Maurten Bicarb System?
The Maurten Bicarb System combines sodium bicarbonate with a specially formulated hydrogel to support high-intensity performance by helping to buffer the acid produced by active muscles during intense exercise. It is designed to make high bicarbonate doses more tolerable compared to traditional methods.
Bicarbonate can be used in training and racing for sports that require intermittent or constant intensity near or above the anaerobic threshold — such as cycling, middle-distance running, rowing, swimming, team sports, and combat sports. It can also be used in threshold (interval) training for all types of endurance sports.
During endurance events with periods of intense exercise or when athletes are able to maintain intensities at a high percentage of their maximal aerobic capacity, sodium bicarbonate has the potential to improve performance. This is currently an area of intense and ongoing research
Who is the Bicarb System intended for?
It is designed for athletes performing near or above their anaerobic threshold — such as in middle-distance running, rowing, cycling, or intense interval training. It is not primarily a carbohydrate fuel but a tool for specific performance demands.
How does the Maurten Bicarb System work?
Maurten Hydrogel Technology helps with the ingestion of the mini tablets and protects them from dissolving prematurely in the stomach. Because of their small size, the mini tablets are not caught in the stomach like capsules. This results in a more controlled transfer from the stomach to the intestine where they gradually disintegrate, and the sodium bicarbonate is absorbed.
