We all have different preferences in sports nutrition but starting with your sport and training demands can help you understand what kind of nutrition you might prefer. HIGH5 have three different types of Energy Gel, so we’re sure to have one that works for you. Energy Gel Caffeine is smooth with a light consistency, making it easy to have on the go.

This is our most advanced electrolyte complex yet, providing you with an invigorating hit of magnesium and over 70 minerals and trace elements, to help you balance your electrolytes during sport. At HIGH5, we’re always looking to use natural ingredients where possible and it doesn’t get more natural than sourcing minerals from seawater. The taste of the salty minerals might come through a little, but don’t worry, these gels taste just as great as our other products!Do they work? Yes, absolutely. I have used High5 Energy Gels on several long rides, and they definitely provided sufficient energy to keep me bowling along nicely. Most sports scientists agree that athletes can absorb a maximum of around 60g of glucose per hour (give or take a bit, depending on body mass and other factors), and that's illustrated well with these gels: on long sportives, after the first two hours, I find that one High5 Energy Gel, plus some carb-based drink, keeps me fuelled up for half an hour of fairly hard riding.

Drink 400ml of Recovery Drink as soon as you finish. Drink another 400ml one to two hours later and eat a balanced meal as soon as possible. High5 Energy Gels are smaller than the gels available from some other brands, but they taste good and slip down easily - and certainly deliver the energy you need on a long hard bike ride.As mentioned above, it will be of value to you and your bladder to not overload your stomach as your digestion process slows during your run. If you need an extra boost, both our Energy Gel and Energy Gel Aqua come in caffeine variants. Caffeine helps improve endurance performance, so if you’re looking for an added edge, we have options from 30mg to 100mg. Energy Gel with Slow Release Carbs is the same consistency and size as Energy Gel Aqua, making it perfect for those who don’t want to carry extra fluids with them. However, it's worth pointing out at this stage that energy gel isn’t a direct replacement as you’re unable to control which muscles the glucose goes to, yet they do help you continue to fuel your run. What is in running gels?

Take one Energy Aqua Gel Caffeine sachet every 20 minutes. If you find that 3 gels an hour is too much, try and consume as many gels as you comfortably can. Practising using gel during longer training runs makes it easier to use on race day. Use a Gel Belt to carry your gels. CaffeineYour fluid needs will vary depending on how warm the weather is on race day and how much you sweat. Take on water or the on-course drink regularly, especially if you are running for more than 90 minutes. Drink as much as you comfortably can. At the finish Energy Gel Aqua has a consistency more like a sports drink so, unlike many other gels, you don't need to drink extra water with it. When exercising it’s important to stay hydrated so we recommend using Energy Gel Aquaalongside ZERO.
