I don't like gator or power ade so I may not be the most woke on this, but I bought a case of this stuff at Costco and struggled to get through it.
A cousin of mine who is a PT says that's it's more effective for athletes than Gatorade.

It has a coconut water base. Way better overall than Gatorade which is primarily sugar.

I’ve done long runs and interval workouts and this is better for hydration afterwards..... or more pointedly, I feel better, faster.

 

[LostAnvil]

do... do you pour it on yourself? "armor" just seems like a poor choice of words for a drink - clothing sure, but not something you ingest

Looks slightly healthier but that isn't saying much for a sugary sports drink made to replenish athletes during and post game/workout.
Article from 2016 (take it with a grain of salt) that compares Body Armor to Gatorade.

Made up the below table based on info I found (Sources: (Gatorade & Body Armor)
Keep in mind the serving sizes are different for the two, Gatorade has a larger bottle (20oz. vs 16oz.).

Item	Gatorade (20oz)	Body Armor (16oz)

Sports drinks are mostly a scam and completely unnecessary for the average person.

 

[Gotham Gator]

As the board's resident Gator, I am offended at this dismissive attitude toward sports drinks in general and Gatorade in particular!

Rather they put this disclaimer in the beginning about players not part of the club anymore (Matarrita) than just editing them out (Lewis with the Etihad campaign)

With climate change and rising sea levels, flooding is happening more regularly in New York. But we can all help tackle it. Here’s an Anton Tinnerholm garden gnome to show us how. #letssolvewater #XylemWaterHeroes #NYCFC #xylem @XylemInc pic.twitter.com/RocSTK9L4o

AT&T is no longer a sponsor. They were removed from the sponsorship page.

Verizon was named as a sponsor during the NYCFC vs. Columbus broadcast on YES (May 22). But Verizon isn't listed on NYCFC's sponsorship page (yet).

I guess not enough people were coming into the stores for those player appearances.

Okay, am I crazy or are kids are in Manchester. The polos they're wearing are not the current year's one. This doesn't look like the NYCFC offices. And they have English accents, right?

Some of our young fans delivered quite the prep talk with @AntonTinnerholm, @SeanJohnGK, @keaton_parks, and @MaximeChanot via @Cisco @Webex 😂 #NYCFC #Webex #Cisco pic.twitter.com/dgjfWPqFTp

Thanks to my friend, my son was able to meet Maxime Chanot over dinner. Very very serious guy. And he’s absolutely terrific with children. It’s really too bad they don’t do more things with big Max.
