If using more than one fuel, be sure to combine all of the calories from all of the products consumed to reach a correct total hourly intake. Mixing / Usage Instructions Consume 0.5-2.5 servings per hour (see chart above), along with 16-28 ounces (approx 475-830 ml) of plain water per hour from a separate source. Notes Hammer Gel may be used as the sole source of calories during workouts and races up to two hours, perhaps up to three hours under certain circumstances. When training sessions or races go much longer than that, select either Perpetuem or Sustained Energy as your primary fuel source. Hammer Gel is perfectly compatible with all other Hammer Nutrition fuels. During ultra distance events, while Hammer Gel cannot be your sole source of calories every single hour, it may be used occasionally to give you a little variety in what you're consuming. Hammer Flask holds 5-6 servings. Espresso Hammer Gel contains 50 mg caffeine per serving. Tropical Hammer Gel contains 25 mg caffeine per serving. You can use Hammer Gel to flavor Sustained Energy, Hammer Soy or Hammer Whey smoothies, etc. Hammer Gel flavors can be mixed for a variety of tastes. Try these combinations: Banana + Chocolate or Espresso = Banana Split Orange + Vanilla = Orange Creamsicle Raspberry + Orange + Banana = Fruit Punch Raspberry + Espresso = Raspberry Mocha Vanilla mixed with any other flavor to make it more mild for long-term use INGREDIENT BREAKDOWN: Maltodextrin - A high-glycemic index (GI) complex carbohydrate, ideal for providing fast-acting, long-lasting energy during exercise and for replenishing the body's glycogen stores after exercise. Energy Smart (Grape Juice, Rice Dextrin) - This all-natural, low-sugar sweetener plays an important role in Hammer Gel's delicious flavor while contributing minimally to the overall carbohydrate content. Energy Smart is certified non-GMO, gluten-free, and allergen-free. Citric Acid - Used in minimum amounts to meet FDA requirements for acidity levels. Hammer Gel contains less citric acid than comparable products. Salt - Minimally added for preservation, flavor, and digestive support. It is not a source of electrolytes (see Endurolytes product line). L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, L-Valine - The branched-chain amino acids (BCAA's) protect against muscle tissue breakdown, while also helping alleviate fatigue. L-Alanine - This amino acid is used to help meet energy demands, particularly when the body's carbohydrates stores are running low. Potassium Chloride - Source of potassium and sodium. Cultured Dextrose (Used in pouches and some jugs) - FDA-approved, all-natural preservative. Potassium Sorbate (Used in some jugs) - FDA-approved preservative.
