Science in Sport Go Isotonic Energy Gel with Caffeine, Double Espresso, 30 Count

This product is great to push you harder working out! Regardless of the 175mg of caffeine, (which is the amount I want) there is no “gitter-feeling”. I love road cycling and so far this is the best product I have found. I don’t care for the taste, but I swallow it down fast, as long as it does the job, and it does. The only complaint I have is it takes FOREVER to arrive, not days, weeks. I would really appreciate if the seller can fix this. I don’t want to order too much in advance as someone else has reported that their expiry date was to close upon the arrival of this product, and another person’s arrived expired . Everything one orders on Amazon arrives pretty fast, like a couple of days. It would be really nice if this can follow suit, PLEASE 🙏 PLEASE. Thank you! UPDATE: The delivery time is now only a few days and the product is fresh, very far from expired date. THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!

In the past I've used Gu gels and they were always too thick and would give me stomach cramps and the taste would linger in my mouth. I bought these because they advertised it being easier to digest and are less viscous than others. These claims are actually true! I haven't had any stomach issues and they actually taste good. The consistency is a little weird but that doesn't matter because you just swallow it.

Will purchase again & reason and affordable price

I went on a energy gel kick a few months ago as I prepped for backpacking season. I found the GU gels originally, then got some cliff gels and then progressed to these gels. I chose these gels for 2 reasons, the flavor (being my favorite thing in the world, double espresso and the caffeine content). Now I recieved 30 of these in March. I took 1 the following day before my workout. Atleast I tried to, I got about 3/4 of it in my mouth before I realized how bad it was. When all was said and done I had about 1/4 on my chest and about half in my stomach. I gave up on the last 1.4 in the gel sleeve. It was bad enough to where I didnt even consider trying it again until June. That was about a week ago. I tried a second gel, although gel really isnt an apt description as its crazy watery. Anyways I was ready for the mouth punch this time. I had a chaser ready and this time I was able to get most of it in my body without creating a mess. I then immediately threw away the remaining 28 gels. I may be cheap enough to give that watery, crazy flavored mess a second try, but there was no way I was doing it a third time. I dont know if my batch was improperly stored in a factory or if it was a bad batch. I just dont know. I know peoples tastes differ, but I cant imagine anyone giving what I received more than 1 star. Regardless thers lots of coffee and espresso energy gels out there. I'll be buying any one of them over these going forward.

I've been trying to find another high caffeine gel for early morning gym/run workouts, and have been using CLIF "double-expresso" gel shots for years. Those have 100mg of caff per shot. This SIS stuff claims 150mg, which is awesome, and to my knowledge, the highest on the market. Good so far. The SIS packs are very large in comparison to other brands. The consistency is way more watery than GU or CLIF gel shots, and you can get it down very quickly, which should be a plus. The caffeine is for real, and gets you off to a pretty hot start ASAP. It's not for everybody, but it helps me immensely. BUT! But. But. The taste. The sucralose taste is miserable. Choke-inducing miserable. Now, I know run gel is an acquired taste, but these push the bounds of reason. I'm trying to figure out if I can tough it out through the rest of the case, or if I just toss it and chalk things up to stupid tax. They should have put "sucralose" in the actual flavor name. I have not tried these during an actual race yet, but I have zero doubt that if I put one of these little fellas down the hatch in later miles... it's coming right back up. I'm trying to figure out why they would even need to use artificials - I guess these are large-ish, and they were trying to stay below 100 calories per pack, but..... it's a running gel. It's sugar syrup and caffeine. Why overthink it? SIS tripped over their own feet, here.
