Not just for elite athletes!
I discovered Saturday’s reviews on YouTube and found them knowledgeable, factual and entertaining. Plus, I have learned SO MUCH about fueling and hydration. So, I decided to give the app a try. I’m a non-competitive runner with 10ks and Halfs my primary races, and I have found this app invaluable when it’s time to prepare my hydration and fuel for my training runs. It isn’t just for elite athletes. Are there things that could be improved or functionalities that could be added? Yes. But given this is more of a home-grown app AND it’s relatively inexpensive, I am more than willing to overlook those missing “nice to haves.”

Great app!
Works well. Fits into my workouts seamlessly.
Amazing App
This is the best fueling investment I’ve ever made, and I don’t know what took me so long to write this review. Saturday takes the guesswork out of having the right amount of fuel for a ride. The support provided for any issues you may encounter is second to none. I can’t recommend this product enough to anyone struggling (or not) with proper fueling.

Great App!
I love this app. It works well and is clean and simple. I bet it has already saved me a hundred dollars just in one training block and race by not buying gels.
I have used it for ultramarathon training and race day execution. It has really helped solve the nutrition puzzle for me. I used to get cramps and lag in energy at later stages. But for my last race when I followed the advice from the app, I felt great the entire race and didn’t have any cramps.

Easy way to calculate fueling
I use it for every long workout and it’s a super easy way to know how much I need to take in during a ride. My recovery has improved a ton since using this and I am much better able to make endurance gains off of my long rides since I am hydrated and fueled properly.
Best endurance nutrition app
This is an absolute gamechanger, a few clicks and I got a personalised plan how to fuel my marathon flawlessly - it was my my best race. Can’t wait to use it for my next triathlon!
No Bonking
I’m not a racer but my friends and I go on long spirited bike rides. 60-80 miles, maybe 18mph. I have to fuel. The Saturday speed nectar enables much stronger finishes, when I manage to execute them pers recommendations. It’s often logistically difficult and I’m working on flavor aids, strong hibiscus tea is good.

Always accurate!!
This app has taken me through marathons, 70.3s and distance challenges. It always comes through.
No brainer for fueling
The Saturday app has been a great tool for dialing in my fueling during training. It breaks down exactly what I need in a clear, practical way that’s easy to follow—even during long workouts.
The automatic sync with TrainingPeaks is a big plus. My workouts load automatically and the app builds a fueling plan around each session, so there’s nothing I have to enter manually.
If you’re training seriously and want a simple, reliable way to plan your fueling, this app does an excellent job.

It’s the best!
The app is simple, all information was in front of me, I never had to guess which menu led to which option like in so many other apps. I also highly rate the ease of account deletion.
Amazingly helpful app
This app is super helpful in figuring out your nutrition. It lays it all out in easy to understand measurements and has been a great aid in sorting out what I need for all my runs. I will not go back to running without it.
Unbelievably helpful
The knowledge and care that has gone into this app is unreal. I know most endurance athletes aren’t as knowledgeable about fueling as they would like and this app meets you where you are. I think it’s a web app or something, native would’ve been nicer but you barely notice.
Go faster, feel better, save money
The app and the training science behind it is a game changer. Well worth it. Training is fun again. App is easy to use and the founders support it with great content. Speed Nectar for the win.
Gem!
This health app has been a game-changer for my Ironman training. It helped me find the perfect quality of carbs, ensuring I stay fuelled and energised during long sessions. The personalized recommendations have optimized my nutrition, leading to better performance and faster recovery. Plus, it’s saved me hundreds of pounds by reducing the need for costly sports nutrition products. Highly recommend for any endurance athlete looking to fine-tune their nutrition!

So simply
Hard to believe how simply pantry items can help with training. No GI distress following the recipes for ALL my rides. Amazing how I’m know able to complete tougher workouts with less breaks. At the end of 3 hour outdoor sessions, I don’t feel drained like before when I used the expensive fuels.
Simple and easy!
The app works great and their YouTube channel is a great source of knowledge as well.
So simple and effective
I love this app. Simple sugar and salt has easily saved me more than the cost of the app. I used to buy expensive supplements, now I get tailored glucose and sodium recommendations for each activity using just salt and sugar.
Decent science on YouTube but $79.99/year for App is rediculous
I thought this app was free and was trying to decide whether to keep it or not. Turns out it's $79.99/year to do basic maths for mixing sugar, water and salt.
It’s ok, but needs a little work
The idea is great, but in reality, I make up my mix a couple of bottles at a time, so having a breakdown for the recipe by bottle would be really more helpful.
Currently the app expects you to make up the solution en mass, e.g. for. 3.5h ride it told me 4.5L + 6000mg salt + 350g sugar. I mix in some Maltodextrin to reduce the sweetness and it does adapt, but I had to create a new item to add the specific amount of Maltodextrin, the other choices being 90g or 20g.
In my opinion it would be more useful to give a recipe / bottle, based on bottle size, as I don’t have a 5L vat to make up all of the solution and then decant it into individual bottles.
