This box contains eight caffeine-free gels (Orange and Berry) and seven with 30 mg of caffeine (Berry and Citrus). Enough for two marathons or three long bike rides, and the easiest way to discover which HIGH5 Aqua suits you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho this pack is for, and who it isn't\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor runners, cyclists and triathletes who are out for longer than an hour and find classic gels too thick or too sweet. Also smart if you want to train with caffeine for the first time, or don't yet know which flavor you can stand for three hours. Training for less than an hour? Then you don't need a gel, water is enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy you don't need to drink water with this gel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference with a regular gel is the water. A thick 40-gram gel usually requires a sip of water. The Aqua packs the same 23 grams of carbohydrates into 66 grams and is therefore isotonic (as concentrated as your own body fluids). It drinks down without extra water. In short: an \u003cstrong\u003eenergy gel for running\u003c\/strong\u003e and cycling that you can easily drink down on the go, without having to look for a bottle or water station.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many gels do you need\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake your first energy gel after 30 to 45 minutes and then one every 20 to 30 minutes, up to a maximum of three per hour. Two gels per hour is 46 grams of carbohydrates, three is 69 grams, exactly the range that is common in endurance sports. In practice: a half marathon requires two to four sachets, a marathon six to eight, a five-hour gran fondo eight to ten. If you are also drinking a sports drink, take fewer gels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to distribute the gels over your race\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou choose when to use the caffeine-free gels and the seven Caffeine sachets. With 30 mg per gel, each caffeine gel contains about a third of a cup of coffee. Three caffeine gels in an hour is 90 mg, all seven together 210 mg. Each gel also contains vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Test your schedule in a long training session first, never for the first time on race day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll four flavors are vegan, made with real fruit juice and without colorings or artificial sweeteners. HIGH5 has been producing at an Informed Sport-certified location since 1994. Choose this pack if you want one box of energy gels that covers your entire race, or if you want to taste the Aqua line first before ordering one flavor per twenty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"High5","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54604115378514,"sku":"high5-055","price":20.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/high5-energy-gel-aqua-mixed_01_product_mixed.jpg?v=1788942634","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/high5-energy-gel-aqua-mixed","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
