Release the hounds with GU’s version of rocket fuel—Roctane Energy Drink. The proven combination of glucose and fructose is the most easily and rapidly absorbed form of carbohydrate. And, a high electrolyte content is just what your legs crave to fire properly, while 35mg of caffeine stokes your central nervous system, increasing the release of free fatty acids into your bloodstream, and further sparing your limited glycogen stores. Plus, taurine and beta-alanine improve muscle endurance throughout the grinding hours of a road race, marathon, or triathlon. Branched-chain amino acids speed recovery and reduce muscle damage, histidine buffers against acidic byproduct, and of course the delicious flavors go down easy.

We know how important recovery is for athletes, which is why we highly recommend this new protein-based recovery product from Gu. This product is formulated with electrolytes, fast-acting protein, and carbohydrates to help you rehydrate, refuel, and rebuild after a hard training session. Now with 20 grams of whey protein per serving, Gu makes it easy for you to get in your post-workout nutrition to optimize recovery no matter where you are. We like this product because you can mix it with water on the go and it still tastes great, giving you no excuse not to hit your 30-minute post-workout fueling window. Research shows that getting in 20 grams of protein 30-60 minutes after a workout helps reduce risk of injury and speeds up time to full recovery between hard training sessions. Get the most out of your training by prioritizing post-workout nutrition with this Gu product!

Created primarily for hydration, GU Hydration Drink Tabs offer the athlete a low-calorie drink option. GU Hydration Drink Tabs are reformulated with xylitol to help reduce gastrointestinal distress when compared to sorbitol. Sodium, the primary electrolyte lost in sweat, helps maintain water balance. Use GU Hydration Drink Tabs before, during, and after exercise to hydrate and replenish electrolyte levels.
