"I'm an NCAA Div. 1 Rower. Rowing has one of the most intense training regimes for the shortest actually competition time, about 7minutes of racing. I've tried GU and PowerGel, but the burst of caffine energy is just that a brust and it doesn't last. Since finding and using e-Gel, I have become a more effecient athlete during training. The Lactic Acid build up in my quads has not been nearly as bad during racing since I started with e-Gel either. I am allegeric to Caffine so to was great to find a product without it. " (read

e-Gel has more energy - plain and
simple! With 50% more calories, two e-Gels are the energy equivalent of 3
packs of other leading gels. Since you don't need as many, you'll have less
trash to deal with.
Sugars enhance flavor and provide a
quick energy boost. However, too much sugar can cause blood sugar
fluctuations, and worse - the dreaded BONK! e-Gel's complex carbohydrate
blend consists of nearly 90% maltodextrin and is designed to provide sustain
energy delivery without the bonk associated with simple sugars, brown rice
syrup and honey.
