THE ORIGINAL ENERGY GEL

THE ORIGINAL ENERGY GEL

CREATED FOR ANYONE THAT MOVES

We first created our original gel packets for ultra-trail runners pushing the boundaries of the sport, but over 25 years later, our Energy Gels are just as crucial for someone running their first 10km as they are for world champion triathletes, cyclists and runners.

GO WITH THE ORIGINAL

What you eat fuels you. But not all food is right for every effort, and that’s why we invented the original energy gel.

When you’re working out, your body needs easily digestible energy to keep you feeling good and performing at your best. In short, your body needs a source of carbohydrates to burn.

KNOW YOUR FUEL TANK

Yes, your body will store fuel from your daily diet that you can convert to energy during shorter and low-intensity activities, but if you’re working out hard or for longer than 45 minutes, you will run out of available fuel… eventually leading you to the dreaded energy bonk.
