HAMMER - Gel (Rapid Energy That Lasts)

DESCRIPTION:

Real endurance fuel

• Rock-solid sustained energy
• No sugar crash
• Easy to digest, no GI distress

BENEFITS:

Unlike other similar-looking products on the market, Hammer Gel’s complex carbohydrates, all-natural ingredients, and pH-balancing formula are easily digestible and provide quick-acting yet long-lasting energy in a convenient, tasty, concentrated form. The addition of branched-chain amino acids helps to prevent muscle tissue breakdown while reducing fatigue.

Only Espresso and Tropical flavors contain caffeine, 50 mg for Espresso and 25 mg for Tropical per serving.

Kosher Certification

HOW TO USE:

Use as a primary fuel source of calories during exercise for less than 3 hours.

Consume 1 serving 10 minutes before and every 45 minutes during exercise. Add 16– 26 oz (473–768 ml), depending on temperatures, of water per hour.

If using more than one fuel, be sure to count all of the calories from all of the products consumed to reach a correct total hourly intake.

Use as a secondary calorie source during exercise lasting more than 3 hours; it’s time to switch to Perpetuem® as your primary fuel source. However, Hammer Gel can be combined with Perpetuem or any other Hammer fuel during prolonged exercise for variety and to avoid flavor fatigue. Just be sure to count calories from all sources to avoid over-consuming.

Pouches
Carry as many as needed for the duration of your exercise. Please retain the tab and empty pouch for proper disposal.

Hourly Fuel Bottle
Mix 1–2 servings of Hammer Gel® in a 21–26 oz water bottle to make a custom sports drink. Consume during each hour of exercise.

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 carbohydrate stores are running low.

Potassium Chloride  - A rich source of potassium. Supplies additional chloride as well.

Potassium Carbonate – Used in small amounts to regulate the acid/alkaline balance of the flavors of Hammer Gel that are a bit more on the acidic side than the alkaline side (e.g., Espresso, Chocolate)

Cultured Dextrose (Used in pouches and some jugs) – FDA-approved, all-natural preservative.

Potassium Sorbate (Used in some jugs) – FDA-approved preservative.
