Sports nutrition in endurance sports

Crown expands its HyperGel 30 Hydro with new flavors and more sodium and caffeine options.

The HyperGel 30 (1:0,8) Hydro of Crown Sport Nutrition It expands its range with new flavors and maintains the same base of 30g of carbohydrates per gel, a very liquid texture and a strategy designed for high carbohydrate consumption during exercise.

The novelty lies in the arrival of new options within a line that was already one of the brand's benchmarks for training and competition, especially in contexts where ease of intake and digestive tolerance make a difference.

Crown expands its range without changing the core product.

Crown Sport Nutrition has presented an expansion of the family HyperGel 30 (1:0,8) HydroIts energy gel, with a very liquid texture, is geared towards athletes seeking a high carbohydrate intake during exertion.

The brand maintains the core formulation of the product unchanged. Each gel provides 30 grams of carbohydrates with a combination of maltodextrin and fructose in a 1:0,8 ratio, one of the most used formulas in high intake strategies in endurance sports.

The product still includes sodium and is offered in both versions without caffeine as in options with 80 mg of caffeine, with the aim of better adapting to the type of effort, the time of consumption and the preferences of each athlete.

New flavors for a line designed for running and competing

The main novelty of this update lies in the flavors. In addition to the already available neutral formats, new mild-flavored variants are now available: Berries, Caffeinated Lime-Lemon, Salted Plantain y Salted Peanut.

Within that new range, Berries It is presented without caffeine and with 110 mg sodium. Lemon lime Incorporates 80 mg of caffeine and also 110 mg sodium. For its part, Salted Plantain y Salted Peanut raise sodium to 400 mgThis difference can be useful in long sessions, hot days, or strategies with greater salt replacement.

This distribution allows for more flexibility in adjusting nutrition based on the context. A short, intense run is not the same as a middle-distance race, a marathon, or a long cycling session with high sweat loss. This is where Crown is trying to broaden its appeal without changing the core of the product.

What does HyperGel 30 Hydro maintain?

Beyond the new flavors, the gel retains the characteristics that already positioned it within the brand's catalog. The first is its very liquid, hydro-type texture, a format that is especially convenient when chewing is difficult or when the goal is to quickly ingest energy.

The second is its focus on consumption exceeding 60g of carbohydrates per hourThis is becoming increasingly common in triathlon, cycling, running, and other endurance sports. In this context, digestibility and ease of consumption are almost as important as the total amount of carbohydrates.

According to information provided by Crown, the gel also remains suitable for vegans, without colorings or sweeteners and allergen-free, maintaining a formulation aimed at reducing interference during exercise.

A wider range to personalize the nutritional strategy

The expansion of HyperGel 30 Hydro fits with a clear trend in sport NutritionOffering a single standard gel is no longer enough. More and more athletes are looking to combine different products. amount of carbohydrates, sodium, caffeine, texture and flavor depending on the time of the session or competition.

In practice, this update allows for experimentation with more variables without straying from the same approach. A triathlete can opt for a more neutral version in the early stages, use caffeine during the decisive phase, or utilize the higher-sodium variants on particularly demanding days.

With this move, Crown reinforces one of its energy lines for resilience with a simple idea: Same base, more optionsAnd that, in products designed to be consumed during intense exertion, usually has much more practical value than a simple new catalog item.
