Recovery is important for athletes, so doing nothing is a good thing, following a
tough workout or game.
Gatorade stresses the importance with "Recover Time," two TV ads starring MLB's Bryce Harper and NBA's Paul George relaxing after a hard day's work. Queen's
classic tune "We Are the Champions" is turned into a lullaby that soothes the athletes as they nap or ice their muscles. Harper eats half of a Gatorade recovery bar before taking a cat nap inside the
Washington Nationals' locker room.
See it here. George unwinds after a game by playing video games and noshing on a Gatorade bar while his
knees are iced and his feet soak in a tub.
Watch it here.
TBWA\Chiat\Day LA created the campaign, directed by
Bryan
Buckley of
Hungry Man.
