A caffeinated isotonic gel for athletes who want a carb hit and a caffeine lift in a single sachet - in a flavour that actually tastes like the real thing late into a race.
What it is
A 60ml gel delivering 30g of carbohydrate in a 2:1 glucose-to-fructose ratio, plus 75mg of caffeine - roughly equivalent to a small espresso. The dual-transporter carb blend (SGLT1 for glucose, GLUT5 for fructose) allows higher absorption rates than glucose-only gels. The isotonic, liquid-like texture is easier to swallow mid-effort than thicker gels, and doesn't demand water to wash it down. 200mg of sodium supports hydration alongside the fuelling. The classic cola flavour tends to cut through palate fatigue better than sweet fruit flavours deep into long events.
When to use it
- Late in long sessions when energy and focus start to drop
- Race-day fuelling for cycling, running, triathlon, and Hyrox
- Hard efforts or surges - take 20-30 minutes before to time the caffeine peak
- Early-morning races where you've skipped or under-caffeinated breakfast
- When you're sick of sweet fruit flavours and want something different
How to use it
Take 20-30 minutes before you need the effect - caffeine peaks in the bloodstream around 30-45 minutes after ingestion. For longer events, consider one caffeinated gel every 90-120 minutes rather than every fuelling cycle, to avoid stacking caffeine too high. Total daily caffeine intake from all sources (including pre-race coffee) is worth tracking - 3-6mg/kg bodyweight is the broadly evidence-supported performance range. Test in training first.
