So good!

Strawberry banana is my favorite so far! I love that this one doesn’t have caffeine but still keeps me super energized :)

Surprisingly yummy

I haven’t had gels in a very long time, but realized I needed a pick me up while running marathons. I was looking for a vegan gel and came across these. I’m so happy I tried them! Super yummy and gave me the energy I needed at miles 13 and 20! Great product, will definitely purchase again.

TRI-BERRY TASTY

Tried the TRI-BERRY flavor, after other flavors that I like, this was a tasty treat. I like sweets. I have experimented with the energy gels' using', 'not using', 'after30 minutes' changing timing, on a controlled 33 mile route I pedal for workouts, consistent temperature, water intake and time of day; I have found that when I delay or skip the gels, I can tell the difference in energy/firepower. Ingesting a gel later is better than not, as I sense a pick up 5-6 miles down the route. Cold water, small recovery segments and GU gels have made a big difference in performance.

I have type 1 diabetes. These worked very well in keeping my blood glucose from dropping too low or going too high while on a bike ride. I took three packets over the course of the ride, and this was the best BG control I've had. I very much appreciate finding something that worked so well. They also taste good!

Love ‘em!

I am a very active type one diabetic and have always used glucose tabs or gels for lows (among other things). I have found that they treat the low but I feel worse after because my blood sugars spike then I crash back down. I started using Gu when I was going through the fire academy this winter, what a game changer! I would take one before a training evolution and not worry about my numbers dropping. In fact, my numbers stay almost perfectly straight, I have learned not to enter the carbs into my pump and it balances out. Now I keep 6-8 Gu in my turnout gear and just got back from 2 calls, my numbers were 135 when I got back to the station and I felt refreshed and ready to go back out! The electrolytes are an added bonus. At first I almost gagged when I tried it, but now I’m used to it and am a die hard fan! Raspberry lemonade is awesome and blackberry is too, but 40mg of caffeine is a bit too much. Salted watermelon is my go to.

Great for distance

Just finish a solo cycle tour > 800 miles. GU, especially with caffeine, really helped to assuage hunger and gave me the energy I needed. Especially great in the heat. Much less muscle cramps at night.

FAQs

Why would I select autoship?

How many times have you grabbed something less-good for you because it was all you had on hand? Autoship makes sure that's no longer the case and you're always fueling good.

And, hey, convenience is great, but savings are even better. You will receive 20% off your first Autoship order (maximum of $20) - HOLY MOLY! And after that, you save 5% on every box.

Alright, but what if I need to make changes to my autoship order?

Change is good. Change is necessary! You can modify your autoship settings and Fuel Goods products in your account - easy peasy!

Delivery times vary based on where you live, but generally are between 2-5 business days once in transit. We ship from North Carolina, so the closer you are to there, the faster they will be! If Ground shipping is just not fast enough for you, we also offer expedited delivery for $10 per box. Our expedited shipping service takes 2 business to deliver once in transit.

Can I cancel my Fuel Goods autoship?

We make it easy to cancel anytime! (Seriously, we should make it harder.)

If a full blown break up isn't what you're looking for, you can also pause, delay, or swap out any items included in your autoship, too.

Our goal with autoship is to make sure you get what you want when you want it....even if that means not at all 🤷🏻

What if I want to customize a single box and don't want to put it on Autoship?

That's totally doable! We simply recommend putting 9-11 items in your cart and we'll get it all boxed up the same way for you as if you were buying a ready to ship box.
