NotSpartacus Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 What works bettr for hubbers whilst racing: bottles of endurance mixtures or gels with water only? Usually the gels state that you should eat them and then flush them with water. Does taking gels with endurance drink reduce their respctive benefits?
Weight Weenie Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Well from my experience, I like to fuel with an energy drink and real food (banas, nuts bars etc.) as well as water. Gels (have tried many, GU is my fav) I like to use before the race to be fast off the line and towards the end or when you really feel tired. Maybe its just mental, but they really get me going in a matter of minutes! Dont think using drink/h2o will matter, it's all going into the stomach anyway? But to me water tastes better and isn't a sugar overload.
Andyr249 Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 I use the enervit gels while racing with 1 bottle of water and 1 bottle of energy dynamics drink.
