Power Through The ‘22 Bowral Classic With GU Energy

By 24 August 20222022 News

GU Energy is the original portable performance solution.

Developed over 25 years ago, GU has always been about one thing – helping pro & amateur athletes push boundaries and keep going strong.

GU are among the most popularly used energy gels and just as crucial for someone riding their first Classic cycling event as they are for top-level endurance athletes.

Why? Because when you’re working out, your body needs easily digestible energy to keep you feeling good and performing at your best. GU help by supplying a source of fuel to burn through. And they do it in a way that means you can fuel on the go.

While your body will store fuel from your daily diet to convert into energy during shorter and low-intensity activities, if you’re planning on working out at a hard intensity or for longer than around 45 minutes, you’ll run out of available fuel. This can lead to the dreaded energy bonk, and no one wants that.

What’s in a GU Gel?

Carbohydrates – an efficient blend of carbs to deliver more energy as efficiently as possible.

Electrolytes – to replace sodium lost sweat and support hydration.

Amino Acids – to support muscle and help decrease fatigue.

You’ll be able to pick up GU Energy products at this year’s Bowral Classic!
