Okay, real talk: my lil’ sis (she’s 14, total soccer beast 
) just told me she wants to start gulping down energy drinks because TikTok said so. Is this what we’re doing now?

Energy drinks can be a slippery slope for young athletes. Hydration = 
. Trendy? Maybe. Necessary? Nah. Water and balanced snacks FTW!

As someone who tried this in middle school, I can confirm it was a fast track to crash-ville. Energy drinks are 
for practice.

Screw drinks like Powerade, I’m all about those home-baked protein bars. Less sugar, more flex on the ‘Gram 
.
creatine_dreams
Debating if my school’s team should follow the latest Instagram trend of creatine milkshakes. Anyone tried this? Results?

Sports nutrition isn’t one-size-fits-all. I’d suggest parents & coaches get informed before the kiddos jump into trendy solutions. Balance > Hype 
.

If it doesn’t come with matching sneakers, is it even worth it? But seriously, natural foods >>> sports drinks for young athletes.

PSA: Caffeine + teens = 
Energy drinks have more than just caffeine, read the labels, friends!

Ever tried beet juice for a pre-game boost? Sounds weird but trust, it’s a game-changer & totally TikTok worthy.

My coach swears by bananas before a meet 
. Potassium power over sugar rush any day!

Low-key, G Fuel is marketed to gamers, but some of my soccer mates swear by it before practice. Anyone else mixing worlds?

The only thing I’m gulping pre-game is anxiety . Thinking about trying protein-packed smoothies. Heard they’re very #glowup.

Real coaches move away from fads and focus on long-term health. Water, sleep, real food = Athlete Success Formula

Okay, but what about hydration packs? My team’s tried those after TikTok ‘sposed them, kinda clutch for long practices tbh.

Heard chia seeds in water are the new sports drink. TikTok trend with benefits? 
eco_warrior17
Low-key, the packaging waste from energy drinks is killing the planet 
. Refillable bottles, anyone?

Fun Fact: Young athletes need about 9-12 cups of water per day, not just during sports. Stay hydrated, stay winning.

Forget the trends, I’m betting my athletic journey on water and classic PB&Js. Let’s make it a trend. #nostalgia
