Description

Flavor Name:Tropical Fruit

Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Drink is a carbohydrate intensive energy drink mix formulated especially for ultra-distance and intense racing or training efforts. It contains the critical carbs and electrolyte replenishment that endurance athletes need to compete at high levels. Each serving contains 250 calories of complex and simple carbs that are optimized for rapid absorption and energy accessibility. Key electrolytes, including 320mg of sodium, help maintain hydration. Roctane Ultra Endurance Drink contains beta-alanine which supplements dietary beta-alanine to improve muscle buffering during intense efforts, and branched-chain amino acids, which are shown to serve as an additional fuel source (when taken with carbohydrates), reduce muscle damage, enhance recovery, and delay fatigue. Select flavors contain 35mg of caffeine, which increases focus and concentration, and decreases perceived effort. Roctane Drink is light tasting—not chalky like most calorie-dense drinks—and mixes easily in a bottle with 21 ounces of water. One bottle per hour, supported when necessary by one Roctane Gel, is recommended for races and prolonged exercise. Available in a 1.72-pound/12-serving canister or 3.44-pound/24-serving jar.

Questions and answers of the customers

  1. Q I recently picked up boxing and have found the two hour early morning workouts to be quite intense. Would this drink be overkill or appropriate?
    A Anytime your body enters an aerobic state our products will help and each serving of Roctane Energy drink contains enough electrolytes and carbohydrates for 1 hour of exercise. If your workout is high intensity and you feel like your efforts are diminished after beginning Roctane Energy Drink would be an excellent addition. If you have any other questions or would like to speak to GU customer service please call us at 800-400-1995 or email [email protected]
  2. Q Is it sticky? Can you put it in a hydro bag?
    A No it’s not sticky. It’s powder and dissolved in water. I only put water in my hydration bag because I worry about mold if you don’t clean it thoroughly. I use this product in my bottles. There’s no reason you can’t use this in a hydration bag as long as you clean it out after and clean the house, mouthpiece, etc.
  3. Q How many servings are in 3.44 pound jar? The description says both 1.77 and 3.44 pnd 10 counts. Thanks.
    A It says 24 servings on the front of the jar I have here and it is the 3.44.
  4. Q I have been drinking Cytomax for years. Does anyone know how this compares to that product?
    A I believe it compares very well. I also used Cytomax for many years but needed to switch and I have now been using the GU roctane for a couple of years. I find it goes down very easy, is not too sweet, and has never caused any stomach issues. It may not have a few of the "bonus" ingredients that Cytomax has, but it does the job perfectly well. The only thing I noted in my review (and somebody down voted me for saying it) is that the maltodextrin used is not a "low dust" type and when you mix it you will want to avoid breathing the cloud that comes out of your bottle :-)
  5. Q Is it sweet?
    A This product has something like 16g of sugar per two scoops. For me it’s not that sweet. But I imagine if a person is more sensitive, it would taste really sweet.
  6. Q Is this included in prime free two-day shipping?
    A It should be. Yes.
  7. Q What's the difference between roctane gel and drink? I want to use for triathlons.
    A Roctane is GU's ultra Endurance line it has more electrolytes, salt amino acids, thing like that. So when your on the long haul you can replace all the things you lose when working. Regular GU has some of what Roctane has but not as much. The difference between a gel and the drink, is the drink is used for hydrating and the gel is used for fueling. This goes into your whole nutrition plan, how long do you need to fuel for, how much you will lose during any given event. These are the questions you'll need to ask yourself. One bit of advice I can give, make you really like the nutrition you choose, you will be more apt to use it. I use the grape flavor roctane. I krave it the longer I go. I started to use it when I was running ultra's.
  8. Q Is this vegan or vegetarian?
    A "This product is made with all vegan ingredients." – GU, product pages: https://shop.guenergy.com/products/roctane-energy-drink-mix?variant=22853252161&_ga=2.224374491.1902573989.1546142943-1020584436.1546142943https://shop.guenergy.com/products/roctane-energy-drink-mix?variant=12137815105&_ga=2.224374491.1902573989.1546142943-1020584436.1546142943https://shop.guenergy.com/products/roctane-energy-drink-mix?variant=12137815169&_ga=2.224374491.1902573989.1546142943-1020584436.1546142943
  9. Q Does this product stain tongue and teeth? I have a product i like a lot but its a bright yellow powder and stains my teeth...
    A It does not stain the tongue or teeth.
  10. Q Does this supplement Gu gel or do they do the same thing?
    A I can't take the GU gel so use this instead on my bike.
  11. Q how does this product stack up to the gu roctane gels?
    A It's a good product but personally I prefer e-fuel drink mix from Crank Sports- the roctane gel is a good product also
  12. Q Does the 3.44 pound jar have any sort of tamper seal? My product arrive with none. No lift and peal. No plastic shrink on the cap.
    A It should have definitely been delivered with shrink wrap on the outside. I’ve only purchased one of these bottles and I had to take a knife to the inner seal.
  13. Q hello I made the purchase of a product and I arrive late to destination so the article was returned to you, I need you to make the refund
    A Contact customer service and stop clogging up the questions.
  14. Q how does this product stack up to the gu roctane gels?
    A I don't use or used this. Sorry.
