I used sport in science gels at the beginning of my running journey, even for 10km races. I now no longer use gels and try to consume all my energy through food before the race. I did take two energy gels to the Salisbury Half but never used them as I never felt like I needed it
Me: sees sports drinks/energy bars in store
Also me: i kinda want that
Me again: nah, i already deal with my ADHD, i don’t need more energy
I love McCann’s Steel cut oats which I load up with brown sugar, cinnamon, bananas, etc. Yum. I use the overnite absorption method so no nutrient loss through boiling. I’m certified in food prep so I know a touch about how to keep nutrients where they belong in the food to be consumed, not escaping in water vapor.
Money scame.Sugar sugar sugar. AKA Poison Poison Poison. Drink water eat right.
Fuel(natural) is very important as you workout. Just remember that we all have different needs.
Footwear is important for what workout you plan to do if you do, not have the right floor padding needed. Jumping support, I need it.
I for one found it really interesting to know how they make them (they are my favoured brand), but also their attention to detail and quality control. Cheers Si.
Can anyone make an estimate of the amount of carbohydrates in the recipe, or average per bar?
Hopefully SIS will offer a gluten-free energy bar at some point ��
He discredits himself as a food scientist as soon as he says “natural foods”.
Simon, how many times you are gonna say “tastes so good”?
Simon: yes.
At face value, a layman reader may not actually understand what, say, hydrogenated palm oil or monodicalcium phosphate is as per reflected on the ingredients list of food products.
It seems that many of consumers really do not care about the specific contents of what they put into their bodies. Probably (even most likely), these consumers believe everything that they see & hear from the ads.
Take the case of Milo. I saw an ad of it being promoted as a “nutritional energy” drink. But come to think of it is it really a nutritional energy drink as the manufacturer claims it to be? Or nobody asks such a question anymore.
Why does it focus to such an extend on doping? As non-pro I’d rather like to hear tips on good nutricion, like when to use which product, advantages over “normal” resin bars, what is when released and picked up by the body, and the such.
Great recipe! You could also add some lightly crushed chia or flax seeds for added crunch. Never mind the health benefits. Thank you for all the hard work!
Tucson is my hometown and shes beutiful! Even though the weather is bi polar
I use Maurten gels for races mostly. I plan on having the non caf at mile 8 and 14 depending on how I’m feeling. I’ll go with the Caf 100 at mile 20 to give me an extra boost. I love nuun and they’re showing up in many US marathons. I probably drink too much of it.
Otherwise, I like Canaberry/long haul/ speed nut from Spring Energy during training. Also Jelly Belly sports beans are a good chewy solid that tastes like candy. They’re much different than the baked beans Brits eat for breakfast ���� I swear you lot are anti social eating baked beans for breakfast *fart*!
@GCN I made these and they are, as he says, “bloody good”. I recommend buying some small re-usable containers and cutting these to size, you can fit 2 per small container, then storing them in your jersey during your ride. I originally tried single-use plastic wrap but, since this recipe is so oily, it leaks everywhere and gets super messy. On that note, I’d also recommend not using the 3/4 cup of oil per the recipe, but more like 1/2 cup (or maybe even a smidge less). Will be making these again cheers!
We all know the answer.We just like people calling out others.
Just ask the young Sudanese girl walking miles and miles in the hot dessert under the blazing sun to collect clean water, everyday!
She doesn’t need any sports drink
I doubled the recipe and made 4 substantial modifications. 1) Used half the amount of brown sugar, 2) substituted golden syrup for natural honey, 3) sunflower seeds for almond slices, and 4) almond butter instead of peanut butter. Overall it was delicious but next time I will use less sugar and use maple syrup instead of honey. Thanks for the great recipe!
Can we have a special beer flavored energy gel? I’d buy like 20 cases if you did
Hey hey my my.. Can the restaurant sketch be a regular feature? ��
Wat is golden syrup? Do u mean honey. Can v skip oil as v r using peanut butter n golden syrup both. Awaiting ur reply.
Can we get a video on how you guys package and consume your home made bars during rides? Or if anyone can give suggestions that would be great as well ����
I use them in the same situations an intra-workout donut is acceptable
Great to see the quality control for the certification against the banned substances. Thanks for the insight to the manufacturing process GCN!
Tried Maurten… no different from all other carb powders.
It’s just an expensive, over priced carb powder.
Who is a chocolate lover? Would you put cacao powder in yours?
Parent: my kid had a good game, got him a sports drink with 8 spoons of sugar, he deserves it! Sugar is addictive more than cocaine. Focus goes out the window after sugar use. Watch Robert Lusting videos.
energy drinks and bars dose not make you better you make your self better
When I was doing a lot of cycling and out for hours at time I learned to take an electrolyte pill, basically the point that was being made at the end with the triathlete on the exercise bike.
thanks for the video, will give it a shot… Do you have any recipes for home made “electrolyte” drinks?
I have to agree with this report in many aspects. And this is from my own personal experience. I had to quit drinking any type of sodas in May of this year. So not being a big fan of water LOL I turn to Gatorade. And from me too now I have seen my weight skyrocket. So I’ve had to cut out the Gatorade’s or more likely just cut them down. Down to 132 ounce per day. Where I was drinking three or four. But it will pack the pounds on you. I am a testament to that.
Very interesting. Surprised to see so many manual tasks in the factory….thought it would be more automated
You: *two hours into running* “So, 2 hours in!” *looks/breathing totally normal* “gonna try this thing!..”
Me: *20 mins into running* ��
���� thanks for the review. Looking for a gel and was worried about flavor and texture. I’ll def give these a try!
I use a local Brazilian energy gel brand called “exceed”. I consume 01 every 30 minutes within a marathon! It has 21g of carbs and a nice mix of glucose and fructose in order to improve absorption!
These power drinks different kinds are all owned by Coca-Cola Pepsi vitamin water is owned by Coca-Cola at people that are read the labels and open their eyes
It´s cool that its vegan, but are not made like a pro, it´s junk food.
