We pack 100 calories into our Energy Gels because, in general, the body can digest roughly 120-240 calories per hour during exercise. If you tried to eat more, the body would divert blood from your muscles back to the gut to handle the excess food/calories. If your metabolism is slower, then one Energy Gel every 45 minutes works just fine. If you have a faster metabolism, try ingesting one Energy Gel every 30 minutes and see if it agrees with your digestion system. We always recommend practicing your nutrition plan to determine what works best for you.
GU Energy Gels come in both caffeinated and non-caffeinated flavors. Caffeine is more than just a morning pick-me-up. Strategically adding caffeine to your nutrition plan before and during exercise can help keep your mind sharp, decrease perceived effort, boost your endurance, and delay fatigue
Please use with caution if sensitive to caffeine.  Caffeine gels are not suitable for children.

HOW LONG DOES AN ENERGY GEL TAKE TO WORK?
Right away! The fructose converts quickly into an energy molecule that your muscles can tap within minutes. The maltodextrin, which makes up 70-80% of the carbohydrate blend (depending on flavor), takes several minutes longer. Because of this delay, your muscles enjoy a steady stream of energy instead of one gigantic sugar rush and a corresponding crash.

What customers say

Product Reviews

“Great communication and fast delivery. Whole purchase experience was very smooth and product is great. Cruzee bike is great quality and was super easy to set up and get moving.”

Chelsea

“Love the Cruzee! Super light and durable. Easy to put together and adjust. Lowest seat position fits our short 2 year old. Fast delivery.”

Josh

“This is the second Cruzee we’ve bought from Cycle Nation. It’s such a great wee bike. Gave the first one to our daughter for her second birthday. Two weeks later she was racing around a pump track. It’s so easy for her to ride. She was cornering and coasting really quickly. We’ve just got one for our 18 month old. Once again Cycle Nation has the best price and service. Arrived very fast. I would definitely recommend the Cruzee as a first bike. It’s very intuitive for kids to ride. And it is so light, which is helpful when they are young and may need to jump into the buggy or be carried.”
