    Whichever drink you like the taste of... I don't like the taste of diet soda, so when I feel like it, I'll drink a regular Coke. I'll just make it fit into my daily calories. :drinker:

    Have a bottle of water with you all the time. That'll help with drinking more water because it's always with you. :smiley:

    For hydration purposes, they are all basically the same by volume.

    For electrolyte balance support during/after a workout, the Power Aid.

    For specific health/contents reservations, pick your poison, cause someone can and has said something bad about everything in all 3 of them. You choose what you believe.

    Depends on what you are looking at. I only base mine on not wanting to drink my calories so I opt for diet soda and/or Powerade Zero.

    Definitely Powerade Zero when it's hot and I'm outside sweating. I switch between this and plain old water.

    Whichever one fits your macros. I personally prefer to eat my calories than drink them, so I drink diet soda.

    Powerade has a lot of sodium, which might be an issue if you're watching that.

    A 32oz bottle has 375mg sodium, whereas Coke Zero has 107 for the same amount.

    Yeah I'm really looking at sodium intake we have a lot of sodium based foods in the area
