Amazon.com Product Description
When you don't have instant access to a hydrating sports drink, tear into a vanilla-flavored Powerbar Power Gel Concentrated Carbohydrate gel packet with the same ferociousness that you tear up the competition. Powerbar Gel will keep you at peak performance during long, difficult workouts by replenishing essential nutrients and electrolytes that help sustain your peak performance. Plus, the gel's convenient palm-sized packaging can be carried with ease for those times when a water bottle just won't do.

The Powerbar Power Gel offers:
  • A small palm-sized packet that can be carried anywhere.
  • Electrolytes and sodium that speeds energy to your muscles.
  • Protection from free radicals that are produced during exercise.
  • Non-fat formula with a blend of simple and complex carbohydrates.


The C2 Max carbohydrate blend offers a gradual release for short and long term energy.
Potent Gel Keeps You Competitive
Containing all the electrolytes of a sports drink plus four times the sodium of other gel supplements, Powerbar Gel speeds more energy to your muscles through a unique C2 MAX higher-octane carbohydrate blend formula. Complex carbohydrates constitute 80 percent of each gel packet, while simple carbohydrates make up the remaining 20 percent. DV antioxidant vitamins C and E help combat free radicals that are produced during exercise, while sodium potassium and chloride electrolytes help maintain hydration and neuromuscular functioning.

In addition, these gels contain little to no fat, and are available in both non-caffeinated and caffeinated flavors. With its 110-120 calories of carbohydrates, this gel is an ideal source of immediate energy during intense athletic activity.

Enjoy the Variety
In addition to the increased energy and hydration Power Gels provide, they come in a variety of great flavors to tempt your palate. You can choose from nine delicious gels, including Caramel, Vanilla, Plain Energy, and Raspberry Cream. The flavors Chocolate, Green Apple, and Strawberry Banana contain 25mg of caffeine--or the equivalent of eight ounces of soda or four ounces of caffeine, while Double Latte and Tangerine contain 50mg of caffeine, or roughly one half cup of coffee.

5 out of 5 stars Great product, great service   October 5, 2008
PowerGel is a great product - I use it before/during virtually every hard workout or long run. BikeSomeWhere gave a competative price and shipped the same day it was ordered. Couldn't ask for more.

We have been using this all summer as a boost in the middle of long day hikes. It gives you the POP you need and believe it or not it tastes good. Not only is it re energizing it is also a treat,


5 out of 5 stars Great deal - swim fast!   July 21, 2008
My son has used this product for swimming - since he had his braces put on. He isn't supposed to eat power bars. It's very hard to find the chocolate with low caffeine. That and the price at our local bike shop was $1.27. So not only was this convenient - free shipping with two boxes (no gas expense) - it was only $1.00 per packet. Now I have enough for 6 months when his braces come off. SWIM FAST!

These aren't the most delicious things you'll ever eat - the taste is a little bit off and chemically.

But they're certainly better than tolerable. And that fact that you're going to want to wash them down with plenty of water? That's a good thing - you're working hard, and you could use the extra H20.

Best of all, these get the job done. They keep me from bonking during my workout..the carbs are great and the caffeine can't hurt. Amazon's price is good, too.
