When exercising, your body needs reliable fuel to keep going, and that's where energy gels are perfect. Compact, convenient, and designed for fast absorption, they provide a quick source of electrolytes and carbohydrates to help you power through any endurance activity. Energy gels are designed to deliver energy right when you need it most, with these being lightweight and easy to carry when on the move.
With so many options on the market right now, though, it's not easy to know which are the best energy gels for your performance goals. Thanks to them being packed with 22g of pro-performance energy, as well as being made from real fruit and all-natural ingredients, our energy gels at Veloforte have become a forte amongst athletes.
Designed to deliver easily digestible energy during endurance and exercise, energy gels are concentrated carbohydrate supplements that are unlike whole foods. Being smooth, compact, and quickly absorbed into the body, energy gels provide glucose and fructose rapidly into the bloodstream. These simple sugars replenish stores to keep muscles working, something which makes them especially popular amongst runners, cyclists, and other high-endurance athletes.
The best energy gels use natural car sources, real fruit for flavour, and a balanced blend of electrolytes to support endurance and hydration. These portal sources of body fuel are small in size, but certainly not in terms of the impact they can have before, during, or after exercise.
Although you may assume as much, the benefits of energy gels go far beyond just quick energy. They support multiple aspects of performance, providing a rapid, yet steady, release of carbohydrates. The best energy gels can keep blood sugar levels stable, maintaining energy for long-distance sports or other endurance events. This is especially beneficial considering glycogen stores deplete as the duration of exercise increases. By supplementing with energy gels, though, this can delay any fatigue, allowing you to perform longer at a higher intensity, just like the more solid energy bars.
Electrolytes are crucial for fluid balance and preventing cramps, too. Each of the energy gels at Veloforte contains 110mg of sodium, which supports hydration and improves the absorption of nutrients during exercise. The natural ingredients these are made from are also gentle on the stomach, making them great for sports nutrition. By not having any artificial sugars, they reduce the risk of digestive discomfort, something that often plagues endurance athletes. Not only do the best energy gels fuel your body, but they are also able to work in harmony with it, delivering effective, clean support for any performance.
Once consumed, most energy gels begin to work within 5 to 15 minutes, with the simple carbohydrates they contain being rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream and providing almost immediate energy. On average, a gel will give between 30 and 45 minutes of fuel, with this all depending on the intensity of the workout and the metabolism of the individual.
For longer efforts and periods of exercise, this means you shouldn't wait until you feel depleted before taking another. Instead, plan ahead and consume the energy gels at regular intervals to keep energy levels topped up and steady.
The frequency at which you should use energy gels all depends on the intensity of the exercise and its duration. For moderate intensity efforts, people should aim for between 45g and 60g of carbohydrates per hour. For higher intensity training, on the other hand, the dosage should be increased to 60-90g. Since each of the energy gels in our Great Taste Award Winners range contains 22g of carbohydrates, that works out to roughly 2-3 per hour for most endurance activities.
Although spacing is all down to personal preference, the key is taking these boosters consistently. The best energy gels are extremely portable and palatable, being easy to consume without any water; however, small sips can still aid in absorption..
Knowing when to take energy gels can also help in your performance. Taking one of these 15-30 minutes before starting your exercise can give you an edge in early performance. During activity, especially ones lasting longer than 60 minutes, taking these at regular intervals can prevent you from hitting any fatigue. Even shorter workouts at higher intensities can benefit from energy gels, as these provide quick physical and mental stimulation.
When it comes to choosing the best energy gels, quality and formulation matter. This criterion applies directly to the ones found at Velogrote, with these being highly versatile for so many types of performance.
The energy gels at Veloforte are made from real fruit, free from any maltodextrin, synthetic additives, or artificial sweeteners. These have an optimal carbohydrate profile, offering 22g of carbs for fast-acting, sustained energy. Additionally, these contain 110mg of sodium, helping both nutrient uptake and hydration, too.
Our natural formulations reduce the risk of any digestive-related discomfort, with every gel being Informed Sport Certified and tested for any banned substances. There are a number of energy gels with or without natural caffeine, depending on your needs and preferences, with all of these being 100% plant-based, making them vegan-friendly formulations. It is not just these gels that can supply you with fuel during or after exercise, either, with energy chews and electrolyte powder also being great for such requirements.
