Tested: GU Energy Stroopwafel

By Coach Levi on April 13, 2019   /   Product Reviews   /   Leave a comment
Tags: energy bar, energy waffle, gluten-free, gu

GU enters the hot stroopwafel market with the GU Energy Stroopwafel. Gu says this is “a Dutch-style syrup waffle that acts like an energy gel, but tastes like breakfast.” As someone who has been using GU energy gels for nearly 20 years (because they work!), I’m very

Tested: GU Electrolyte Brew

Tags: electrolytes, gu, sports drink

Despite GU gel being my absolute favorite for years, I was never drawn to the rest of the GU product line. Even when GU2O was available, I drank something else. But with the launch of the new formula and flavors for GU Electrolyte Brew, that could all

Tags: energy chews, gu

GU Energy Chews take the great nutritional value and flavors of GU’s gel lineup and form them into a gummy treat that gives you a little bit more texture. My Thoughts on the Older GU Chomps I love GU gel. It’s absolutely my #1 favorite gel. I’d

Tested: GU Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Gel

By Coach Levi on July 26, 2014   /   Product Reviews   /   3 Comments
Tags: energy gel, gu

No matter how many fancy new products come out that try to reinvent the wheel (with the wheel in this case being energy gels, not a bicycle wheel), there is one thing that doesn’t change – GU gel being my #1 go to fuel for high performance.

Tested: GU Energy Gel

By Coach Levi on February 15, 2010   /   Product Reviews, Top-Rated Products   /   3 Comments
Tags: energy gel, gu
