SUGGESTED USE GUIDE
0-1 Hours Of Effort
When you're exercising for an hour or less, it's important to start your workout well-hydrated and energized. Five minutes before your activity, top off your energy stores with an Energy Gel. It's always best to take a few sips of water to help your body process your fuel.
1-2 Hours Of Effort
When you're exercising for longer than an hour, it's important to refuel along the way. Aim to eat an Energy Gel every 20-30 minutes to keep going strong, and be sure to hydrate while taking gels to help your body efficiently process your fuel.
2-3 Hours Of Effort
As you increase exercise duration, your body needs more. Supplement your Energy Gels with Energy Chews, Hydration Tabs for electrolyte replacement, or Roctane Energy Drink for energy and hydration in one.
3+ Hours Of Effort
During really long efforts, it's impossible to replace everything you're burning, but you can maximize your performance by eating as much as your body can comfortably process. Boost your BCAA consumption with Roctane Energy Gel or Roctane Drink Mix, which will help protect your muscles as you go longer.
