best energy gel on the market

2008-10-20
This is the best-tasting, most effective energy gel that I have found to date. The Tri-Berry actually tastes really great, and the caffeine is great to keep you going. I have found that if I take 1/2 packet at a time it is just enough to give me a burst of energy but not let me crash. I use them for 10 miles or more, generally about every 5 miles thereafter.

GU is not Gene Upshaw BUT....

I had absolutely no intention of buying any GU Energy Gel the day I signed on to look up what all the GU emblems stood for on the football helmets and football fields. Well now I know that it was in honor of hall of famer Gene Upshaw who passed away in August. But I also found this stuff, read about it, read the reviews and ordered some. It is GREAT...what an unexpected discovery! It tastes good and it actually DOES give me a burst without drinking a lot of coffee and having to pee! LOVE IT!!

great boost of energy during workout

gives me energy during long runs and other endurance sports - very easy to eat during a run, like having the option of 4 different flavors - I have tried all but Espresso Love so far (not a coffee drinker) and the other 3 taste great

Chocolate Gu

Of all the gels, I like the taste of this one best. Kind of like chocolate frosting. They all get old after awhile, but I find this one reasonably easy going down.

Great buy, not avaible in the area i live.

GU Energy Gel is specifically formulated to energize your body during exercise. Using GU during your regular workouts will keep your mind alert and active, and your muscles going strong. GU gives the most concentrated form of immediate energy with no stomach bulk or distress, is quickly and efficiently absorbed, and will maintain your blood sugar at the optimal level for a great workout start to finish.

Good Variety

I liked the flavors of all the GU energy gels and it gave me the boost of energy I needed before my workout without giving me the jitters. I would definitely recommend this product.

You can feel the difference

The Chocolate Outrage is my favorite -tastes just like chocolate frosting! (I can't stomach most energy goos/bars)

I ride (cycle) often and do a long 40-mile ride twice a month. I can notice a surge in energy and stamina a few minutes after savoring the chocolate gu (love it!) and my muscles have never had a serious hangover (I also drink Cyto-max on those long rides).

I am a novice cyclist (My husband's the pro, and loves the Tri-berry flavor), and this stuff has helped me get through (and look forward to) some very tough rides.

LOVE GU!

Just ran my first marathon in October and these were a godsend. Could definately feel the caffeine, electolytes, and carbs. Took them when I first felt fatigued, every 45 minutes to an hour, they kicked in just before I felt like I would collapse. Best boost ever. Use them on long runs, long bike rides, or when I workout and didn't eat much that day.

No so good

Doesn't seem to work at all, if anything it makes you even more tired than you were to begin with, and it's rather expensive. Good for recovery though, but not what it was meant for (energy).
