The brand recommends consuming 1 to 3 bars per hour whilst exercising.
This range depends on each athlete’s individual carbohydrate requirements and the intensity of the exercise. Each 45 g bar provides 31 g of carbohydrates, allowing you to adjust your intake according to the duration and intensity of your session.
It is advisable not to consume too many solid foods whilst exercising, and to combine this bar with other products from the Energy Line range, such as gels or drinks, to vary the textures and make it easier to consume over time.
