For use before, during, and after activity, our BCAA Capsules help maintain mental clarity, prevent muscle tissue damage, and enhance muscle growth. Each capsule delivers a 4:1:1 ratio of the three BCAAs (leucine, valine, and isoleucine) along with B Vitamins that facilitate muscle tissue recovery and reduce nausea during exercise. Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) are the three amino acids responsible for helping to reduce muscle fatigue, speed recovery, and decrease the loss of other amino acids from muscle during exercise. These building blocks of proteins can be found naturally in your diet and are essential to maintaining a positive balance between muscle damage and muscle repair.When: Anytime is a good time to prevent muscle tissue damage. Taking BCAA capsules before, during, and after exercise helps decrease muscle tissue damage as a result of strenuous exercise.FAQ’s:Do 2 capsules provide enough BCAA?Yes as little as 2-3mg of BCAA can enhance muscle buildup and prevent muscle breakdown.What about vitamin B toxicity if I take too many capsules?Not to worry. Vitamin B is a water-soluble vitamin, so any excess intake will be eliminated in your urine.Can I take capsules during exercise?Of course! And this will help performance if your nutrition during exercise does not contain BCAA..

Created to supplement additional electrolyte replacement needs, GU Roctane Electrolyte Capsules provide added electrolyte support on top of their hydration-drink products. Each bottle includes 50 capsules that are packed with electrolytes (sodium, magnesium, chloride) to aid in hydration by maintaining water balance and plasma volume. Vitamin D is important for calcium absorption and bone health. Vitamin B6 and ginger root may help to combat nausea. Take GU Roctane Electrolyte Capsules before, during, or after exercise to replenish electrolyte levels from any energy-demanding activity resulting in sweat loss.FAQ’sDoes vitamin D supplementation help exercise performance?Vitamin D deficiency is common among athletes. In individuals that are vitamin D deficient, supplementation can improve exercise performance.Why is vitamin B6 in the capsule?Vitamin B6 can help combat that unwanted nausea when athletes push their limits to the max.Should I take the capsule only during exercise?No! Roctane Electrolyte Capsule can be taken anytime you feel the need to replenish or prevent electrolyte losses due to exercise. It can be taken before, during, or after high intensity efforts.Why is the electrolyte potassium not in the capsule?There is no data to support potassium supplementation during exercise. Blood potassium concentration does not change or increase during exercise, as potassium is released from muscle contraction. The increase in potassium during exercise is less dramatic as an athlete becomes more trained, which may help prevent fatigue and has been associated with elevated potassium concentration (potentially due to alterations in membrane depolarization). Several studies have even shown that potassium ingestion during exercise doesn’t change blood potassium concentration. For these reasons, potassium is not included in the Roctane Electrolyte Capsule.How do I incorporate this Roctane electrolyte capsule with other GU products?Some individuals need more electrolytes than others. The athletes that end each workout looking like a salt stick tend to need more electrolytes than others. These athletes can supplement the electrolytes that are already in GU Electrolyte Brew, Roctane Ultra Endurance and gels with 1-2 capsules/hour as needed to help replace electrolytes lost in sweat..

GU Brew focuses more on hydration and less on carbohydrate delivery, offering 70 calories per serving. This 3% carbohydrate solution provides added flexibility to the athlete. Mix it as instructed for rapid absorption or combine with your favorite GU/Roctane gel for increased energy density during longer workout days. For athletes looking for a more energy dense carbohydrate solution, try Roctane Energy Drink.Hydration before exercise:To ensure proper pre-exercise hydration, consume approximately 16-24 oz. (470-720 ml) of GU Electrolyte Brew within an hour of the start of your workout.Rehydration during exercise:Fluid replacement should approximate sweat and urine losses during exercise and is dependent on many environmental factors. Generally, it is required to consume 7-10 oz. of fluids (200-300 ml) every 10 to 20 minutes during exercise, but specific individual recommendations are based on exercise duration, sport dynamics, sweat rates, and individual tolerance.Rehydration after exercise:Rehydration after exercise should aim to correct fluid loss accumulated during exercise. Depending on one’s exercise duration and intensity, replace the electrolyte losses from sweat by consuming GU Brew and jump start protein syntheses with the help of GU Recovery Brew..

Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Drink is a carbohydrate intensive energy drink for ultra distance and intense efforts. It contains the critical carbs and electrolyte replenishment that ultra endurance athletes need to compete at high levels. And it comes in a super light tasting, easy to mix formula for fueling hour after hour after hour. Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Drink packs 240 calories into each serving. It’s an ideal way to get those much needed calories during long or intense workouts. It mixes easily and is surprisingly light tasting. For optimum results, use with 1-2 Roctane gels per hour during training and racing. Exact Roctane intake depends on the intensity of your pursuit and your body weight and fitness level. The fitter you are and the more you are used to consuming carbohydrate during exercise and the more Roctane you can eat each hour, up to approximately 340 calories every 60 minutes. Combine Roctane Energy Drink with Roctane Energy Gel, original GU Energy Gel, GU Electrolyte Brew and GU Recovery Brew for the ultimate in sports hydration, fueling and recovery. Take one gel 15 minutes before training or competition and then one gel every 30-45 minutes during exercise.

Protein-Powered Fuel:Accelerade, with its patented 4:1 ratio of carbs and protein, represents a dramatic departure from conventional carb-only sports drinks. Accelerade also demolishes the conventional dogma regarding the importance of protein to help fuel muscle cells and improve rehydration, the two essential criteria for a sports drink. More than 10 peer-reviewed studies have shown that, compared to a conventional carbohydrate electrolyte sports drink, Accelerade: � Increases endurance by 29% � Decreases muscle damage by 83% � Increases rehydration by 15% (and 40% more than water) � Increases endurance in a subsequent workout by 40% How Protein Enhances Athletic PerformanceThe introduction of Accelerade represented an important new chapter in the science of fueling and hydrate. Accelerade is the first sports drink that contains protein in a patented 4:1 carbohydrate-protein ratio. Protein-powered Accelerade in multiple studies was shown to have both synergistic effects with both carbohydrates and electrolytes as well as independent effects to enhance endurance and reduce fatigue. The carbohydrate composition found in Accelerade is different, consisting of 3 short-acting high-glycemic carbohydrates. Each of the carbohydrates uses a different transporter system, thereby increasing the amount of energy that is transported to muscles. And since the sugars are high-glycemic, energy delivery is not delayed by stomach absorption which means faster delivery. The protein in Accelerade, which contains a high percentage of branched chain amino acids reduces fatigue during exercise and also has a major impact on reducing muscle damage and speeding recovery after exercise. Although these endurance and recovery benefits would make protein-powered Accelerade an ideal choice for a sports drink. Accelerade is also a better rehydration drink. Just as carbohydrate activates an independent transporter system, so does protein. In fact, in a study comparing Accelerade to a carbohydrate-electrolyte sports drink, and to water, Accelerade was 15% more effective than Gatorade, and 37% more effective than water..
