Etixx Energy Sports Bar contains approximately 29g of carbohydrates and is suitable for both pre- and during exercise. Pre-workout use is part of a carbohydrate loading strategy aimed at maximizing muscle glycogen stores for a competition. In the days leading up to a long, hard competition, athletes should follow a carbohydrate-rich diet.
The carbohydrates in the energy bars therefore ensure a long-lasting fuel supply. They contain complex carbohydrates that are broken down and digested more slowly, thus releasing the fuel over a longer period of time. They are easily digestible and therefore ideal during long-term efforts such as marathons, triathlons or cycling races.
