## Overview

GU Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Gel delivers 100 calories and 1425mg amino acids per packet, combining dual-source carbs with 180mg sodium and 35mg caffeine to sustain energy, reduce muscle damage, and maintain hydration during extreme endurance activities. Vegan, gluten-free, and portable, it’s the go-to gel for serious athletes pushing limits in running, biking, hiking, or skiing.

## Description

GU Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Gel is a high-intensity offering from GU, the original sports energy gel. Designed for extreme and long-duration endurance activities, GU Roctane Energy Gel comes in highly compact, portable, and calorie-dense packets that are loaded with carbohydrates that can be rapidly absorbed. Athletes performing at a high level for hours on end need more from their nutrition, which is why Roctane Energy Gel packs three-times the amino acids and twice the sodium as original GU Energy Gel. These ingredients boost Roctane's efforts to help decrease muscle damage, promote muscle repair, and maintain water balance. Each packet of GU Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Gel contains 100 calories and 1425mg of amino acids.

Review: Great upgrade to standard GU - I tried GU Roctane during my full marathon, and I was impressed. The taste, consistency, and flavor are pretty much on par with the regular GU, so if you like that, you’ll enjoy this. I felt good throughout the race—better than usual, actually—until the very end, which is saying something! The only difference I noticed compared to regular GU was that the effects seemed a bit delayed. It took a little longer for fatigue to set in throughout the race. Overall, definitely a solid choice for long-distance endurance. No adverse stomach issues throughout. Definitely swallow with water like normal GU.
Review: A Must Have for long distance running and high intensity training... - I purchased the GU Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Gel 24 Count variety pack so I could have them available in my training for a marathon. I really grew to love these gels, and they definitely gave me the energy and boost needed for my training and long runs. I would say you need to consume a few of these gels before you start getting use to how they taste and dissolve in your mouth, and the biggest key is having them with a good amount of water or gatorade. During marathon training, I typically had my first gel about 15 minutes before my run and then one about every 30 to 40 minutes during the run. These gels are really awesome since they only have 100 calories and provide the necessary and essential electrolytes and amino acids to help decrease muscle damage and mental fatigue. I have also started incorporating the gels when we go on long hikes / trails and when I play my two hours of weekly pick-up basketball games (and boy, have I noticed an improved level of energy and intensity). I really love the variety pack because of all the different flavors. I know a lot of people are going to have their own personal preferences and favorites but I would say all of them tasted fairly good and seemed to sit well with my stomach. I believe this product is a must have for all long distance runners or people involved with high intensity training. I would not have had a successful marathon without them.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does Roctane compare to original Gu? Is it worth the higher price?**
A: Answer:  There is more quantity of 'Stuff' in Roctane.  I use it only for workouts of 2 hours or more or for a race.  I use the Original GU for most of my daily workouts.  So I think it worth having some Roctane on hand for those extended workouts but not for everyday use.

**Q: I would like to know if the gel is vegan / vegetarian?**
A: I think so. I looked at the ingredients and the only thing that looks like it might not be vegetarian is "Gellan Gum." Not 100% sure though.

**Q: Do the caffeine free flavored really give better results than regular GU?**
A: I use the regular Gu and the caffeine free Roctane versions (never use Gu w/ caffeine) and I do notice a difference between the regular and the roctane. I generally only use roctane on super long / strenuous hikes or backpacking routes (16+mi/4000+ elevation), so, arguably, I need something "extra" and it does seem to make a difference. I've also shared them with others (friends and strangers) who were struggling (one time, in the Grand Canyon where it was 118 and we had to climb with heavy packs). Others have made the same observation without my prompting them. It could be placebo, but it would still be worth the $$ to produce the same results.

**Q: Would these be useful in a bug out bag / ergency kit as an extra source of nutrition/electrolytes?**
A: I don't think this is the best way given the space/weight and expiration. I'd suggest electrolyte capsules (like endurolytes extreme or saltstick). In any case, all of these would require water - electrolytes help your body maintain proper moisture levels (among other things) but cannot do that without the moisture - hence water. Having some bottled water and a water filter (and possibly the drops, like aquafina) is a good plan. Also, the real worry would be nutrition (given proper nutrition electrolytes will hardly be a problem unless extreme exertion), so some freeze-dried meals / canned goods / dehydrated foods would be good, but again, you'll need water and a stove of some sort (don't forget the lighter/matches). Just keep an eye on the expiration dates of all of these items and update them as needed.
