Energy Gels

Every endurance athlete knows the dreaded &bdquo bonking & ldquo: Nothing works anymore, no power and that after they had trained optimally beforehand. Reason: The carbohydrate storage is burned out. The muscles can no longer be supplied with enough fuel &ndash the body breaks down. To overcome or to avoid this fatal situation from the outset one should prevent this with energy gel in the last third of the sporting activity. The small bags are packed with carbohydrates that pass into the blood immediately, and energy is rapidly made available to the muscles. This takes effect within minutes. However be careful: Just as fast as the power boost comes, it can go again.
