Benefits |

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 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.
-
Hammer Jug & Flask Economical, eco-friendly, and convenient! Add the desired amount of servings, then top off with water. Shake well and consume entire contents gradually during exercise until the flask is empty.

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.

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.
