Maurten is out with their first-ever bar, called SOLID, and it is changing the game for fueling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJust don't call it a bar!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSOLID reinvents bars by removing everything but the essentials. The result is a performance-focused oat-and-rice-based chewable. It may look like a bar, feel like a bar, and taste like a bar — but it's definitely not a bar.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis is SOLID.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMaurten said one thing that struck me in explaining the creation of SOLID  \"The majority of \"energy\" bars are made to have snack-appeal. SOLID, on the other hand, is built for fueling performance. They are worlds apart — one is aimed at the top supermarket shelf, the other at the top of the podium.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe taste of SOLID is excellent and, like all Maurten products, is very easily digestible. There are two flavors, BASIC, which is well, a basic oat bar flavor that is pleasantly sweet but purposely plain tasting. The other is C, which stands for cocoa and offers a tasty alternative to mix things up. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI've tried both flavors, and both are good and what you want to eat during your workout. Both are easy to chew but not crumbly. I also found them very easy to swallow in the middle of strenuous efforts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHere is the real secret. The bar has a whopping 44g of carbs and makes it perfect for the high-carb fueling strategies of today's performance athletes. With Athletes now pushing over 100g of carbs per hour, you can now replace 2 of those gels per hour with one Maurten Solid Bar. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePut another way. I predict that many athletes struggling to get to 80g of carbs per hour will find they are now easily able to get to 100g to 120g with practice by adding the Maurten SOLID to their fueling plan.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFor example, in one hour, if you now consume:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1x Maurten Solid (44g)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1x Maurten CAF Gel (25g)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1x Bottle of Maurten Drink 160 (40g)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eYou are over 100g of carbs without even breaking a sweat, well, you better be sweating if you take in 100g of carbs per hour, just sayin'.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThere are a few other ways to add Maurten SOLID to your routine:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUse Maurten Solid the night before a big event.
