Energy Gel Caffeine (40ml) - Cola

Carbohydrates are the most important source of energy during intensive exercise. Due to the body's limited storage capacity for carbohydrates, it is recommended to provide carbohydrates through food during (intensive) exercise of 60 minutes or more.

In addition, mental and physical fatigue have a negative effect on exercise performance for more than 90 minutes. In such situations, caffeine consumption can help maintain physical performance. This is mainly due to the central effect of caffeine on the brain, which decreases the perception of effort and increases the threshold of pain tolerance. In addition, caffeine consumption can also promote mental acuity or alertness.

The 6D ENERGY + CAFFEINE GEL contains 30g of carbohydrates in a 2:1 ratio of glucose to fructose. Thanks to this 2:1 ratio, the body can absorb up to 90 g of carbohydrates per hour. Unlike most other gels, this gel also contains 200mg of sodium. Adding sodium helps to quickly replenish salt stores in the body. This is particularly important for athletes who not only sweat a lot, but also expel a lot of salts, and especially when exercising in a hot environment which leads to significant sweat losses.

Besides 30 g of carbohydrates and 200 mg of sodium, 6D ENERGY + CAFFEINE is supplemented with 75 mg of caffeine. Ideal during prolonged endurance exercise (e.g. marathon) to increase the concentration of caffeine in the blood before the most decisive moment of the competition (e.g. steep climb or final of a race), and/ or to be able to maintain the concentration of caffeine in the blood during prolonged endurance exercise.

How to use : 

Use 1 to 2 gels per hour of effort, with a maximum of 5 gels per day.

Take 1-2 gels 30-60 minutes before a decisive moment in competition, when a mental and physical boost is desired.

Thereafter, 1 gel per hour is sufficient to maintain blood caffeine concentration during prolonged endurance exercise.

Due to the high concentration of carbohydrates (sugars) and sodium, it is recommended to always use 6D ENERGY + CAFFEINE GEL in combination with water. This is to ensure proper absorption and to minimize the risk of gastrointestinal upset during exercise.
