For shorter training sessions, you can often get by just fine with a sports drink beforehand, but during long rides, intense races or times when your body is burning a lot of energy, the situation changes considerably. Then it’s not just about having something easy to eat on the go, but also about how many carbohydrates your body can actually absorb during exercise. Energy Gel Pro has been developed precisely for those kinds of moments.

This gel is designed for endurance athletes who consciously aim for a higher carbohydrate intake during strenuous or prolonged exertion. Think of long cycle rides, marathons, triathlons or intense endurance sessions where nutrition on the go becomes a crucial part of your performance. Thanks to the compact sachet, you can easily carry the gel in your trouser pocket, cycling jersey or running belt, without the hassle of bulky bars or extra water bottles whilst on the move.

2:1 carbohydrate ratio with 30 grams of carbohydrates

Each sachet contains 30 grams of carbohydrates in a 2:1 ratio of glucose to fructose. This means that the gel utilises different transport systems in the body for carbohydrate absorption. This is precisely why this ratio is so common in the world of endurance sport, where athletes often aim to consume higher amounts of carbohydrates per hour during prolonged exertion.

What’s more, the sachet is compact enough to carry easily in your trouser pocket, cycling jersey or running belt, without having to lug around large water bottles or energy bars whilst on the move. This makes it easy to use the gel during training sessions, races or long rides where regular carbohydrate intake is important.

Carbohydrates contribute to the restoration of normal muscle function (contraction) following very intense and/or prolonged physical activity that has led to muscle fatigue and depletion of glycogen stores in skeletal muscles.

Choose between with or without caffeine

Energy Gel Pro is available in several varieties. The caffeine-free Apple and Red Fruit flavours are suitable for athletes who deliberately choose a caffeine-free gel, for example during shorter training sessions, late-evening training sessions or when you prefer to limit your caffeine intake.

Are you preparing for long races, early-morning training sessions or situations where you deliberately want to use a gel containing caffeine? Then there is also the Red Fruit variant with caffeine. This contains 70 mg of caffeine per sachet and is often used during intensive or prolonged exercise, where athletes strategically incorporate caffeine into their nutrition plan.

With added sodium

As well as carbohydrates, each Energy Gel Pro also contains 200 mg of sodium. This is a mineral that you lose through perspiration during prolonged exercise. This makes the gel a good fit for a practical nutrition plan for endurance athletes who want to regularly replenish carbohydrates and sodium during long training sessions or competitions.

Use Energy Gel Pro before, during or after exercise. Beginner endurance athletes can start with one gel every 30 to 60 minutes during exercise. More experienced athletes often build this up to a higher carbohydrate intake per hour, depending on training duration, intensity and personal preference.
