Baseball Player-Approved Refreshments

These Synron Workout Drinks Were Created with Shohei Ohtani

These new Synron workout drinks were created in partnership with baseball player Shohei Ohtani as a series of refreshments perfect for helping athletes to accelerate their performance.

The products include the Pre-Workout and Post-Workout drinks, which are each optimized for the needs of athletes in different stages. The drinks have no caffeine in the mix and instead opt for functional ingredients like L-citrulline, L-arginine, taurine and BCAAs. Each beverage comes conveniently packaged in bottles to maximize their ability to be sipped and resealed, and come in two flavor options including Grapefruit and Watermelon-Kiwi.

Managing Director KOWA-Syncron Jason Schwenck spoke on the Synron workout drinks saying, "With Shohei's partnership, Syncron is redefining the performance beverage category by combining the right ingredients, mindful formulations, and sustainable packaging. We're excited to offer products that help consumers perform, recover, and thrive."
