Description

To avoid bonking while exercising, you need a portable source of easily digestible carbohydrates to fuel your muscles. ROCTANE Energy Gels are designed for long-duration and high-intensity training and racing with more electrolytes for hydration and amino acids for your muscles.

ROCTANE Energy Gel contains 3x the branched chain amino acids (BCAA’s) and 2x the electrolytes compared to GU’s original Energy Gels
Contains the amino acids taurine (to help maintain heart contractility and improve cardiac output during long exercise sessions) and beta-alanine (to help promote formation of the intramuscular buffer carnosine)
A system of dual-source carbohydrates provides an “express lane” for each carb to deliver energy to your body much quicker than a single source of carbs, which helps you avoid “the bonk” during training and racing
ROCTANE contains more sodium than the original GU Energy Gel and sodium is the main electrolyte lost in sweat
Ideal for use 5 minutes before training or competition, and every 45 minutes along the way
Kosher certified, gluten-free and vegan-friendly

SUGGESTED USE GUIDE

0-1 Hours Of Effort

When you’re exercising for an hour or less, it’s important to start your
workout well-hydrated and energized. Five minutes before your activity, top off your energy stores with a Roctane Energy Gel. It’s always best to take a few sips of water to help your body process your fuel.

1-2 Hours of Effort

When you’re exercising for longer than an hour, it’s important to refuel along the way. Aim to eat an Energy Gel every 30-45 minutes to keep going strong, and be sure to hydrate while taking gels to help your body efficiently process your fuel.

2-3 Hours Of Effort

As you increase exercise duration, your body needs more. Roctane Energy Gels contain up to 3x the sodium and BCAAs of our Original Energy Gels. Depending on heat and humidity, as well as exercise intensity, you can supplement your Energy Gels with Hydration Tabs for electrolyte replacement, or Roctane Energy Drink for energy and hydration in one.

3+ Hours of Effort

During really long efforts, it’s impossible to replace everything you’re burning, but you can maximize your performance by eating as much as your body can comfortably process. Boost your BCAA consumption with Roctane BCAA Capsules or Roctane Drink Mix, which will help protect your mustcles as you go longer.
