Why a shake bottle is a must-have for every athlete
Of course, you can use a glass and a spoon, but let's be honest: no one wants to stir like crazy to dissolve a bit of powder. A fitness shaker is designed to mix your shake effortlessly without lumps or hassle.

What makes a good shaker?
Not all sports shakers are the same. If you want to buy a shaker, pay attention to these points:
1. Mixing system: ball, sieve, or vortex?
- Mixing ball: A stainless steel ball that makes your shake lump-free.
- Sieve: A fixed filter that helps dissolve powder better.
- Vortex system: High-tech shakers with an automatic mixer.
2. Leak-proof closure
Nothing is as annoying as a shaker that leaks. Choose a sturdy click system or a screw cap that really seals.
3. Capacity & size
500-600 ml is ideal for standard protein shakes. 750-1000 ml is perfect for large shakes or hydration during intense workouts.
4. Extra compartments
Some shakers have extra compartments for powder, pills, or snacks. Handy if you don't want to carry loose containers.

How to use a shake bottle without mess?
Everyone knows it: you throw in your powder, shake, and still end up with lumps. Here's how to do it right:
1. First the liquid, then the powder. This prevents the powder from sticking to the bottom.
2. Use a mixing ball or sieve. This ensures an even distribution without lumps.
3. Shake firmly, but not too wildly. Keep the cap tightly closed and shake in a controlled motion.
4. Clean it immediately. Don't let residues dry, because that's a nightmare to clean later.
