energygels

How much energy gel you'll need depends on two primary things. First, the intensity and duration of your activity, and secondly, what your overall calorie requirements are.

Those who engage in intense and long sessions will require a higher calorie energy gel (or more multiple energy gels), while those who aren't or who are also focused on fat loss will want to take less.

Since energy gels are mostly carbohydrate energy (sometimes with other energy-promoting vitamins or herbs added in), you still should be adding them to your total carbohydrate count for the day.

Take your energy gels when you first start to feel slightly fatigued so it'll kick in before your energy really bottoms out.
