Everyday Athlete launches pre- and post-training performance gels

Everyday Athlete has released Energy and Refuel, a pair of performance gels built around a simple routine: one gel 10 minutes before training, another 10 minutes after. Each combines fuel carbs, functional ingredients, and electrolytes in a single squeezable packet — no shaker bottle, no mixing, no prep.

Why two gels?

Performance gels have traditionally been designed for one moment: mid-run fuel during endurance races. Everyday Athlete is applying the gel format to a different use case —pre- and post-training fuel for people doing Hyrox, functional fitness, gym sessions, or any mix of training styles.

Everyday Athlete’s Energy and Refuel gels.

Energy handles the front end of your session with steady-release carbs, caffeine, and blood flow support. Refuel covers the back end with protein, creatine, and glycogen-replenishing carbs, hitting the post-training window when your body is most receptive to recovery nutrients. Both gels use steady-release carbs designed to avoid blood sugar spikes and GI distress, a common complaint with traditional gels.

What’s inside

Energy (pre-training, Berry Jam flavor)

Energy is designed to be consumed 10 minutes before your session. The formula leans on low-GI palatinose for sustained energy without a crash, plus beetroot and L-citrulline for nitric oxide and blood flow support. The full ingredient list includes:

• 75mg natural caffeine for energy and alertness
• 3g beetroot and 4g L-citrulline for blood flow and endurance
• 22g steady-release fuel carbs for sustained output
• 300mg blue ginger paired with caffeine for focus
• 1g beta-alanine to buffer lactic acid buildup
• 12mg vitamin B1 to support lactate metabolism
• 4g coconut water and electrolytes for hydration

Refuel (post-training, Lemon Yuzu)

Designed to be consumers within 10 minutes of finishing. The formula targets muscle repair, joint support, and glycogen replenishment. The formula includes:

• 5g hydrolyzed whey protein for muscle repair
• 5g FORTIGEL collagen peptides for joint, cartilage, and bone support
• 750mg creatine HCl for muscle recovery and reduced fatigue
• 17g recovery carbs for glycogen replenishment
• 1g taurine to reduce post-training muscle fatigue
• 4g coconut water and electrolytes for rehydration

Who it’s for

The gels are designed for people who train consistently across disciplines — gym sessions, running, HYROX, functional fitness — and want straightforward nutrition without juggling multiple products and formats.
Each gel weighs 45g (1.17 fl oz), doesn’t require refrigeration, and fits easily in a gym bag or pocket.
