Carbohydrate is defined as a chemical substance that composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Carbohydrates types in isotonic drink is glucose that produce fast energy and carbohydrates types in sugarcane drink is sucrose that was combine of glucose and fructose that need a time to produce energy. Two difference types of carbohydrate produce energy to improve endurance performance with differences metabolism steps for allow the cells to access energy. The objective ofthis study was to investigate the differences effect of carbohydrate types in isotonic drink and sugarcane drink on endurance performance and total ofsweat loss production among long distance runner athletes. One group subjects (N=30) were given two treatments (treatment 1: Sugarcane drink, treatment 2: Isotonic drink) to measure the cardiovascular endurance performance (VO2max) and total sweat loss.
