About GO Energy Caffeine Gel 150mg
Caffeine has been repeatedly shown to improve performance by lowering your perception of effort by providing a boost just when you need it.
GO Energy Caffeine 150mg in double espresso flavour provides a high dose of caffeine for high intensity races and long, tough days on the road.
Benefits of the GO Energy Caffeine Gel 150mg
When pushing yourself hard, your brain controls how fatigued you feel. Caffeine acts as a stimulant on the brain to lower your perception of effort, allowing you to keep pushing and maybe stretch yourself a little further.
It can take 30-60 minutes after consumption for caffeine levels to peak in the blood, so if you are doing a short duration event (less than 60 minutes) you should take it before you start.
If you are doing a much longer event, such as a marathon, 100 mile sportive, or half-ironman triathlon or longer, you should save your caffeine intake for the last two hours when your fatigue level is likely to catch up with you.
Recommended Usage
Consume 1 gel 1 hour before exercise for high intensity, short duration events to ensure the body starts with elevated caffeine levels. In longer duration events consume no more than 2 gels per day. Ensure you keep hydrated. This product is not intended for children, under 16's or pregnant women. Where hydration is important, GO Energy Caffeine Gel 150mg can also be consumed with GO Hydroor GO Electrolyte to ensure a combination of energy, caffeine and fluid delivery during exercise.
