Customer Rating: Summary: Way to Go for Varied Tastes Comment: This is a great way to purchase GU if you don't want a full case of the same flavor. It is a bonus to be able to mix up the tastes of this helpful product from time to time. I like the benefits of this product which include: easy to eat, quick to give energy and a good way to provide calories before the morning run. Customer Rating: Summary: Good Variety Comment: I liked the flavors of all the GU energy gels and it gave me the boost of energy I needed before my workout without giving me the jitters. I would definitely recommend this product. Customer Rating: Summary: You can feel the difference Comment: The Chocolate Outrage is my favorite -tastes just like chocolate frosting! (I can't stomach most energy goos/bars)
I ride (cycle) often and do a long 40-mile ride twice a month. I can notice a surge in energy and stamina a few minutes after savoring the chocolate gu (love it!) and my muscles have never had a serious hangover (I also drink Cyto-max on those long rides).
I am a novice cyclist (My husband's the pro, and loves the Tri-berry flavor), and this stuff has helped me get through (and look forward to) some very tough rides. Customer Rating: Summary: LOVE GU! Comment: Just ran my first marathon in October and these were a godsend. Could definately feel the caffeine, electolytes, and carbs. Took them when I first felt fatigued, every 45 minutes to an hour, they kicked in just before I felt like I would collapse. Best boost ever. Use them on long runs, long bike rides, or when I workout and didn't eat much that day. Customer Rating: Summary: No so good Comment: Doesn't seem to work at all, if anything it makes you even more tired than you were to begin with, and it's rather expensive. Good for recovery though, but not what it was meant for (energy).
