THE ROCTANE DIFFERENCE

AMPED UP INGREDIENTS FOR TOUGH EFFORTS

When you're pushing your limits, you need an energy source that can keep up. Roctane Energy Gels deliver more of the key nutrients you need to feel strong when the going gets tough. So, what's in them?

THE ROCTANE DIFFERENCE

More sodium to replace what you lose through sweat

On hot or humid days, or when you're just going all out, it's important to stay on top of your electrolyte intake. Roctane Energy Gels have up to 3x more sodium than our Original Gels.

THE ROCTANE DIFFERENCE

Extra amino acids

The Roctane BCAA blend contains Taurine, which can help maintain heart contractility and improve cardiac output during long exercise sessions. We also include beta-alanine, which can help promote formation of the intramuscular buffer carnosine, which can help delay the onset of fatigue during high-intensity efforts.†

SUGGESTED USE GUIDE

    0-1 Hours Of Effort

    When you're exercising for an hour or less, it's important to start your workout well-hydrated and energized. Five minutes before your activity, top off your energy stores with a Roctane Energy Gel. It's always best to take a few sips of water to help your body process your fuel.

    1-2 Hours of Effort

    When you're exercising for longer than an hour, it's important to refuel along the way. Aim to eat an Energy Gel every 20-30 minutes to keep going strong, and be sure to hydrate while taking gels to help your body efficiently process your fuel.

    2-3 Hours Of Effort

    As you increase exercise duration, your body needs more. Roctane Energy Gels contain up to 3x the sodium and BCAAs of our Original Energy Gels. Depending on heat and humidity, as well as exercise intensity, you can supplement your Energy Gels with Hydration Tabs for electrolyte replacement, or Roctane Energy Drink for energy and hydration in one.

    3+ Hours of Effort

    During really long efforts, it's impossible to replace everything you're burning, but you can maximize your performance by eating as much as your body can comfortably process. Boost your BCAA consumption with Roctane BCAA Capsules or Roctane Drink Mix, which will help protect your muscles as you go longer.

    Cold Brew Coffee delivers the bitter yet smooth taste you expect from a refreshing cup of cold brew coffee. Packed with 70mg of caffeine (double the amount compared to other caffeinated ROCTANE Energy Gels), Cold Brew Coffee is enough to get you out the door, even if you’ve hit snooze one too many times.

    Blueberry Pomegranate blends two unique berry essences into one smooth flavor. (Fun fact: Pomegranates are technically berries!) Called Blue Pom for short, it is sweet, floral and fruity. Tastes like a favorite jam, works like a ROCTANE Energy Gel. This Energy Gel flavor has been so well-received that we also made it into an Energy Chew flavor.

    Chocolate Coconut brings out the best (dessert) in all of us. Right out the gate, this flavor strikes with a strong, toasty coconut flavor. But you only have to wait a moment for the rich, fudge-like dark chocolate that comes to balance things out. It reminds us of our favorite island-themed, chocolate-coconut cookies.

    To start things off, yes – It does taste like a delicious creamsicle. After doing some flavor science testing, we quickly found that the classic vanilla-orange combo definitely works in an Energy Gel form. The real vanilla brings sweet and creamy, while the citrusy orange flavor brings a nice, mildly sour zip.

    Pineapple makes for a great summertime flavor. Made with your favorite tropical fruit flavor, Pineapple is a fantastic option when looking for something slightly sour (but mostly sweet). It’s IRONMAN World Champion Rinny Carfrae’s favorite flavor, so if it’s good enough for Rinny, it’s good enough for us! (And just because it’s good during the summer, doesn’t mean you can’t be transported to a tropical paradise by eating it during those colder months!)

    This will take you back to the days of grabbing a slushy with your friends, and the cherry and lime flavor combo plays with two types of sour. It’s sweet and fruity, but so much more.

    Strawberry Kiwi is that crisp, juicy flavor you crave in the summer. It’s not only a perfect blend of kiwi and strawberry essences, but also the perfect blends of sweet and tart. Reach for it when you want to be transported to a tropical paradise during your next run, ride, or adventure.

    Strawberry Kiwi Roctane Energy Gel

    Lemonade is designed for hot summer training. Not only does it taste just like a refreshing glass of ice-cold lemonade, but it also has the most sodium out of any Energy Gel. This means it’s even better at helping you stay hydrated while you’re out there in the heat…because nothing beats lemonade in the heat.

    Sea Salt Chocolate takes the chocolate game to a whole ‘nother level. Crafted with delicious, dark chocolate that meets textured flakes of sea salt, this flavor is a true delicacy. If you or someone you know is a chocolate fan, this is the one for them.

    When we set out to create a new Roctane flavor crafted specifically for hot, dusty training and racing we asked athletes what flavor they crave in those conditions. Salted Lime was the clear winner. It’s a tart, mouthwatering burst of fresh lime flavor with a salty zing that will keep you feeling your best over the long haul. Plus, a portion of sale proceeds benefit the Western States Endurance Run Foundation.

    I’ve purchased the mixed box and made some learning discoveries

    First off I thought they were all the same just different flavors. It was a rather painful discovery that some came with caffeine while others didn’t. It was a lesson learned and I managed to figure that out after 2 terrible experiences.

    On my first time using this I actually felt it working which was before I purchased the box.

    Second it helped me learned alittle about my run and how to control my speed and except slower paces if need be for longer durations. I had a hard time excepting this on my own and this gel product sought me through and hour of my runs at no less then 7MPH. I’m hoping to be able to raise this number to at least 8 by September.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    HOW IS ROCTANE ENERGY GEL DIFFERENT?

    A ROCTANE Energy Gel contains 3x the amino acids and 2-3x the electrolytes compared to our original Energy Gels. They also contain the amino acids taurine (to help maintain heart contractility and improve cardiac output during long exercise sessions) and beta-alanine (to help buffer muscle acidity during intense efforts).†

    HOW LONG DOES AN ENERGY GEL TAKE TO WORK?

    Energy gels start to work right away! The maltodextrin converts quickly into an energy molecule that your muscles can tap within minutes, while the fructose takes several minutes longer. Because of this delay, your muscles enjoy a steady stream of energy instead of one gigantic sugar rush and a corresponding crash.

    WHY DO ROCTANE ENERGY GELS AND ORIGINAL ENERGY GELS HAVE THE SAME NUMBER OF CALORIES?

    You'll find the same number of calories in our Roctane and GU Energy Gels because this allows you to fuel more efficiently without overloading your system with too many calories at once. During exercise, blood flow is directed to working muscles and away from the digestive tract, which increases the risk of GI distress if you try to consume too many calories--or the wrong type of calories--all at once. The 100-calorie serving size allows you to take in smaller, more frequent amounts of energy without causing gut discomfort. Aim for 200-300 calories per hour of activity and remember to hydrate along the way.

    CAN I USE ROCTANE ENERGY GELS WITH ROCTANE ENERGY DRINK?

    You can use Roctane Energy Gels and Roctane Energy Drink Mix together, keeping in mind that the body can effectively process about 300-400 calories per hour during exercise. Many athletes consume one serving of Roctane Energy Drink Mix  plus one or two gels per hour. Everyone is different, so be sure to find what works best for you individually.

    WHEN SHOULD I CHOOSE TO USE ROCTANE ENERGY GELS?

    While there's no harm in using ROCTANE Energy Gels for every workout, they were specifically designed to provide additional nutritional support for prolonged and/or intense exercise. Therefore, you will find ROCTANE Energy Gels especially beneficial during exercise which requires extra recovery time and/or where you need help with preventing fatigue, increasing concentration and focus, and decreasing perceived effort.
