Great product
By mxblues98 from Wisconsin on 1/8/2020
Fit: NA
Love the flavor-just enough caffeine for the long workouts and the best part is
the fact the top stays attached so less chasing of waste when you open it.
Brilliant

good before a workout
By runnerpaul from trenton nj on 8/10/2018
Easy to use both before and while running. Only think I can't solve is what to do with the sticky leftover packet while running.

Tasty chocolate gel
By ron6788 from NJ on 7/1/2017
I've been eating these mocha gels from Clif for years. They're like melted chocolate candies. There's a slight boost from the caffeine in performance energy but probably just as much a push from the sugar. Tasty, actually makes a good, low-cal snack, too.

Clif Shot - Energy Gel, Razz
By Cool Mccoy from Florida. on 12/1/2016
Have been using Clif Shot gels for years, I found this product at SwinOutlet and the price was the best of all my searches. The service was fast and the shipping was free. Will order from Swim Outlet when I need to replenish my supply of ClifShot gel.

No GI issues
By Ironman Joe from Chapin, SC on 5/12/2016
Best thing since sliced bread. Seriously it goes down easy, has good taste and works well during long endurance racing. I enjoy the lemon flavor the best.

Some flavors contain caffeine
By MPohlmann from Carbondale, IL on 11/28/2015
I was surprised that the Tri-Berry flavor has caffeine, but the Peanut Butter flavor does not. I saw no information about this prior to my purchase. This information should be made available in the description. Both flavors are pleasant, but I would prefer to know about the caffeine content.

GU
By linda from Tucson, AZ on 5/24/2015
Before I purchased this product, I had heard nothing but excellent reviews but I was a little skeptical. Nevertheless, I decided to give it a try since it doesn't hurt to try. Haven't gone anywhere without it since.

Good Stuff
By Yeti George from Holyoke, Ma on 10/7/2013
I don't like to do a long run without some GU. I have, and can tell you that there is a noticeable difference in stamina and energy at the end of the run. Not to mention you save some cash buying them in bulk.

Personal favorite
By Sumit B. from New York, NY on 6/12/2013
I take these on an empty stomach before a workout followed by about 8 oz of water. I'm a huge fan of these. 100mg of caffeine and I like the taste...
The only thing is the consistency. One box was super smooth, the next box I got was a lot thicker. I'd prefer the smoother consistency and I'm not sure why the difference in texture among boxes.
Regardless, if it weren't for the texture inconsistency, I'd give it 5 stars.

Great GU
By JRG from Edmond, OK on 5/12/2013
I use GU for my long training runs and half marathon races. It gives me the boost I need for a "second wind" to get through the last 5-6 miles. I love the Vanilla Bean the most!

Test before you buy in bulk! Tastes nothing like real coffee.
By Krystina from New York on 4/5/2013
I am always the type of person who will try something out before buying a large supply--especially with how sensitive my stomach is in general, but also to gels/gus, specifically. I'm training for my first full marathon and am trying to understand what fuels my body, or borderline just makes me ill.
I did my first 16 mile run a few weeks ago, and took the Clif Shot Mocha Energy Gel, which has one shot (50mg) of caffeine. I wasn't fond of the taste at all, and I only take half at a time, but I felt like the caffeine worked wonders, and allowed me to have an awesome run.
I knew I needed more gels asap, and that I liked the Clif brand after having it during my very successful run. So I figured the only thing that could top the mocha gel was a shot from the same Company (Clif), with double the caffeine (100mg) that tastes like coffee. How could you go wrong?! Well, you can. The caffeine felt like it worked, but even after taking the gel with water during the run, it seemed to bother my stomach a bit. And I'm an avid/heavy coffee drinker, so that says something too.
It left a gross aftertaste in my mouth. Now I'm forcing myself to finish the box, although I have about 21/24 packages left. Moral of the story? Mocha isn't that bad, make sure you try all flavors, brands, and varieties (caff/no caff) before purchasing in bulk.

My go to supplement on longer races...
By W Glover from Atlanta, GA on 3/18/2013
I am lucky to have found a mid race nutrition that I don't hate. I tested about every flavor and mocha fits best for me. The consistency is fine as long as you add a bit of water (which you should be doing anyways). The litter leash is also helpful, since most are eaten on the go. I would reccomend this product to anyone.

Another Clif product I have used for years.
By Not-fishing from Folsom, Ca on 2/27/2013
I keep some in my car for those long drives when I get drowsy.
I also sent a couple of cases of these to my Marine son in Afghanistan to use on Patrol. He shared them with his buddies. They worked great to help them stay awake on those long night operations in Harms Way.

Quick Energy on the go
By Highlander664 from Burbank, CA on 2/6/2013
I started mountain biking and quickly realized how much more energy is required to ride trails vs. a nice smooth bike path (or street). The GU energy gel is great for that quick fuel on the go. I take a gel before the ride and one about halfway up the mountain and it really does help keep me going.

Tasty too!
By JCurrie from Pasadena CA on 2/3/2013
I usually take this on my 8-10 mile runs. I sometimes take it in thirds, every 15 miinutes or so. It works great. I like the taste of this one the best.

GU Has The Goods
By Mac9377@yahoo.com from Belleville, IL on 1/4/2013
Everything you need from an energy gel is in the GU. Once you know what your favorite flavor is, you will not want any other product. I have taken my body to the edge in training, and a GU Energy Gel brings me back to continue the workout. It is magic in a pouch if you ask me.

By Rebecca from Chicago, IL on 11/2/2012
I'm a runner. I use this product before and during races. It's a delicious burst of energy. I definitely plan on buying it again from Swimoutlet. They have the lowest price. I hope that start caring other flavors.

Roctane fuel
By Stu from Boston, MA on 10/18/2012
The Roctane is a good product. It took a few times for my body to adjust the gel, but once It did, it made my runs, and recovery a lot smoother.

Tasty and works great!
By JR from Pasadena, CA on 9/13/2012
I tried taking it a third of a packet at a time, instead of as indicated, and just letting it melt in my mouth. It works for me because I'm not as interested in speed as in endurance for now. It works for me. It also tastes great. Bought chocolate this time; I had also tried Double Xpresso. Both taste great.

good alternative bloks
By Dan from PA on 7/26/2012
This product has worked great for me so far. I take one 15 minutes before I run so it gets into my system. It is easy to take and so far it digests better then the Clif shot bloks. I think this could be because it is in liquid form. They say it works best if you take one every 45 minutes while running. I opted to use shot bloks every 45 minutes instead but they are very easy to take and fit right in your pocket. I haven't found anything bad yet except maybe the taste. They taste pretty sugary but after the initial taste it isn't that bad.
