5.0 out of 5 stars Didn't realize the negatives of a "liquidy" goo
As far as the product offering, these were packaged and delivered perfectly. They do what they are designed and advertised to do, and the flavors are great!That said, I thought I wanted a more liquidy goo for my first IronBoy (70.3) because I had had some goos in a past marathon and remembered being a little confused by the eating while breathing process. Just a few weeks into my training I realized that you can tuck a normal goo in your cheek and breath just fine, so it was just a novice technique problem. Having refined this skill, I would now highly recommend normal goos over these because of the following observations:1. To pack enough calories in these, they need to be physically larger, which makes A) storing them on your person or on your bike a little more cumbersome and B) drinking them a 2-squeeze operation for me, rather than a 1-squeeze operation for a traditional goo. These are basically the size of your palm+fingers, whereas a traditional goo is just the size of your palm.2. I got stickier hands holding these while pumping my arms. These splash and run more than a traditional goo, which stays contained if you need to take a few strides between bites/sips, especially considering point #1.3. When these are inevitably warm during a multi-hour race, it's kind of hard to tell if it's in your mouth or not, given the liquid has minimal weight and texture in your mouth.4. They kind of spray to the back of your throat, which is annoying for the eating+breathing thing, compared to scraping a traditional goo with your teeth onto your tongue, flipping it to your cheek, and then breathing while your saliva gets working.There's probably more expert advice out there, but thought my experience might be helpful for other novices.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellence choose!
Excellent choice for GU to do this! Their original GU is very thick in viscosity and AWFUL to try to consume when you’re in the midst of a peloton gasping for air. The only thing I wish they’d try to do is reduce the size of the pouch. I enjoyed all the flavors except the espresso one.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good taste, easy to drink, kind of bulky
This stuff tastes like a melted freezie, it's easy to drink, and gives you good energy. I have a hard time swallowing gel energy supplements. I feel like lose a few breaths while trying to choke them down. I don't have that challenge with this stuff. The only draw back is the size. These pouches are about double that of a gel based supplements. I'm good with it, but if you don't have an issue with gels you may prefer to stick with those.
4.0 out of 5 stars Can be difficult to get all of it out of the packet.
Considering that you likely will be drinking them warm, some of the flavors are a little intriguing. The warm cola flavor is OK, but just seems a bit odd, like cola left out on the counter overnight. The espresso flavor also is a bit of a surprise at ambient temperature.They are definitely liquid, and I guess they don't want the contents to squirt out when you tear it open, so even once it is open, you have to squeeze the packet to get it flowing and suck and squeeze the contents. Even doing that, I almost always had some left in the packet. To really empty out a packet, I would have to use both hands to fold the packet up from the bottom to squeeze everything out. Might be ok for running, but not on a bike ride when you don't want to stop.Still, the liquid-gel is easy to swallow and doesn't make you feel like you need to wash it down with water. Knocked off a star on easy-to-swallow because of the difficulty getting it out of the pack.Compared to the energy gels, you get a bigger hit of energy, and quicker, too, but it doesn't last as long. Also, since there is more volume (for the same amount of calories, sodium and amino acids) than the gels, you can't carry as many on long bike rides. So, I've switched back to the gels.May be good for runners and shorter rides, or a quick burst of energy at strategic points, like just before a hill climb.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good energy supply for a long exercise.
It tastes good, have good texture and helps to fill up the energy level.
3.0 out of 5 stars Disgusting
Do not get if you are used to eating the Gu gel right before you exercise! This stuff makes its way back up right in the middle of a run…burns the stomach! Maybe I didn’t read something right so I won’t drop the rating too much. It is absolutely disgusting though compared to the gel.
5.0 out of 5 stars I love this product, but risky shipping.
I love the product and have only bought it in local running stores, I tried to Bolo it and two leaked out and made all the others sticky. I guess I’ll be sticking with buying them from a local store. I’d like to get two new ones, but you’re not able to do that anywhere on here or chat with them apparently.Best product for endurance running though, in my opinion. Easy to get ingest while running.
5.0 out of 5 stars Not bad tasting
I drink one before my 1.3 mile swim and it has helped me maintain a strong swim throughout my marathon practice
Sabor no agradable, pero es casi imperceptible
Se digiere muy fácil
Serdecznie polecam
jeden z lepszych jakie testowałem
9 gel e non 12
il gel è anche un buon prodotto, molto liquido ma basta prendere la mano per aprirlo correndo, invece di versarlo su maglia e scarpe. gusto limone non nauseante.peccato che nella confezione ce ne siano solo 9 anziché 12
Not really a gel, taste is not pleasant
These are useful especially if you're on a long ride (100km+) as they're a burst of energy to help reduce fatigue. If you're looking for a gel, this is not, more of an unpleasantly thick syrup. They do the job, but I wouldn't buy them again
Bahhhh
Das ist mit Abstand das am schlecht schmeckendste Energy gel das ich jemals hatte. Es schmeckt so schlecht das ich mir unsicher bin ob es schon schlecht geworden ist, also abgelaufen ist trotz noch gültigem mhd
