Energy Nougat Sport Bar

Description

The amount of carbohydrate available is a determining factor for performance in endurance and high-intensity intermittent exercise (alternating exercise and short breaks). That is why it is important to supplement carbohydrates during this type of exercise. We ensure that the blood glucose level is maintained during exercise and muscle glycogen is supplemented.

These energy bars are suitable for both before and during exercise . Before exercise, the athlete's body should be supplied with the highest possible level of carbohydrates. This is achieved by eating carbohydrate-rich foods in the days before competition or intense training (= carbohydrate loading) and by eating a carbohydrate-rich meal 1.5 to 4 hours before the competition. Etixx Energy bars can be eaten as a snack in the days before competition and during or shortly after the pre-competition meal.

If carbohydrates are not ingested during long-term efforts, muscle glycogen stores will be depleted after ~90min of activity.

How many carbohydrates should I eat during exercise?

Exercises <1h : It is not necessary to consume carbohydrates during exercise.

Workouts 1-2h: 30g carbs per hour (~1 energy bar)

Workout 2-3h: 60g carbs per hour (~2 energy bars)

Exercises > 2.5-3h: up to 90g of carbohydrates per hour (~ up to 3 energy bars)

The Etixx Energy Nougat Sport Bar is enriched with honey and almonds and contains 29 g of carbohydrates per bar. It therefore provides the necessary energy for optimal performance. Magnesium has also been added , which contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism and reduces fatigue. Etixx Energy Bars not only supply the necessary energy for optimal functioning, but are also easy to digest thanks to their low fat and fibre content.

Who will benefit from Etixx Energy Nougat Sport Bar?

Long-lasting energy bars provide energy supply during exercise and are therefore excellent for consumption during competitions by endurance athletes ( marathon runners , triathletes , cyclists , long-distance swimmers , etc.) and team and racket athletes (football, basketball, tennis , etc. ). Also for explosive athletes who have training sessions lasting several hours (e.g. sprinters , jumpers , throwers , weightlifters , etc.) and athletes who perform medium-term efforts ( runners, swimmers, kayakers , rowers, etc.) energy bars can be useful to maintain their energy reserves.
