I started using Ready® when I was at Pitt and got to experience its performance and recovery benefits, so obviously I’m very excited to be part of the Ready® Team. Because nutrition plays such a big part in your performance, I’ve become very particular on what I put in my body.

I know I can trust the Ready® products, especially since I use their sports drink, knowing I’m getting the best in sports nutrition. I love the Strawberry Banana flavor in particular. Plus, the more Pat and I spoke about the brand and its mission to inspire athletes to take more pride in their effort than their talent; that attitude and mentality resonated with me and how I approach my football career.

Top 3 Reasons

Kenny Picket
Hydrates With
Ready® Sports Drink

1. Love the idea that a sports drink with electrolytes can also fuel me with super fruit carbs.

2. Whether it’s Ready’s® Sports Drinks or Clean Bars… the taste is amazing. My favorites? The Strawberry Banana Ready® Sports Drink and Vanilla Swirl Ready® Clean Protein Bar.

3. Ready® speaks to my mentality. I know it’s not where you start that matters but where you finish that’s important. And by outworking the competition, I’ll be able to achieve my goals.
