    Before, During, After

    We boiled this down to a simple formula of what to eat Before, During, and After each workout. Over the past 8 years we have refined this further with feedback from over 200,000+ athletes being fed by The Feed.

    Goal: 30–45g of carbs per hour, stay hydrated

    • Before

      Pre-workout: Hydro Tab in 500ml of water, sip before you start

    • During

      During: One Drink Gel (30g) around the 20–30 minute mark

    • After

      Post: Hydro Tab or water to rehydrate

    • Total

      Total carbs: ~30g. Clean and simple. No need to overthink it for shorter sessions.

    Goal: 60–75g of carbs per hour

    • Before

      Pre-workout: Fast Bar 30–45 minutes before you roll out

    • Hour 1

      Hour 1: One bottle of Energy Drink (30g) sipped throughout + one Drink Gel (30g) = 60g

    • Hour 2

      Hour 2: Same combo, or swap the Energy Drink for a Turbo Drink at 40g and pair with one Turbo Gel (40g) = 80g if you're pushing hard

    • Total

      Total carbs: 120–140g across the session. This is the sweet spot for most amateur athletes on a medium-long training day.

    • Night before

      Night before: Standard carb-loading meal, no need to overdo it

    • Race morning

      Race morning (2 hours out): Fast Bar + small meal

    • Swim start

      30 minutes before swim start: One Turbo Gel (40g) for a quick top-up

    • On the bike

      Turbo Drink mixed at 80g per 500ml bottle — one bottle per hour

      One Turbo Gel every 45–60 minutes = 40g

    • On the run

      Turbo Gels only — one every 30–40 minutes

      Caffeinated Cassis version at the halfway point and again at mile 10

    • Post-race

      Cherry Juice immediately after the finish line

      Recovery shake within 30 minutes

    But one size doesn’t fit all. Which is why we are here to build you a personal Feed that will work for you and your sport, your diet, your flavor preferences, and your training goals.

    A runner in motion on a trail

    Everything in the Amacx world falls into one of two systems

    Energy Line (blue packaging)

    30g

    Delivers 30g of carbs per product.

    Designed to get you comfortably to 90g/hour.

    Think of the Energy Line as your everyday training workhorse.

    Turbo Line (black packaging)

    40g

    A 60ml drinkable gel with 40g of carbs and 200mg of sodium.

    Available in regular and caffeinated versions (100mg caffeine).

    Think of the Turbo Line as race-day and peak-week firepower.

    Every product in the Energy Line = 30g of carbs. Every product in the Turbo Line = 40g of carbs.

    Need 60g/hour? Two Energy Line products.
    Need 90g/hour? Three Energy Line products — or two Turbo Line products + one Energy product.

    The color coding (blue = Energy, black = Turbo) tells you everything you need to know at a glance. No label-reading during a race. No math on the run. Just grab the right color and go.

    Nomio box and bottle

    Nomio

    Nomio is a concentrated organic broccoli sprout shot, backed by 8 years of Swedish research, that helps reduce lactic acid buildup so you can hold your effort longer.

    Nomio is the top trending performance product this year. Mads Pedersen has been using it for over a year and loves it. Coincidence he's now in the green jersey? I think not.

    Benefits:

    • Reduce Lactate
    • Fight Fatigue
    • Pro Tested
    • WADA Compliant
    • Train Harder
    • Recover Faster
    • Scientifically Studied

    How the Tour Peloton Fuels

    Just a decade ago, 60 grams of carbs an hour was considered the upper end of fueling. Now it's not even the minimum in the WorldTour peloton.

    120g of carbs an hour. Zero mercy. No bonks.

    A decade ago, sports nutrition advice said athletes should aim for 60–90g of carbs per hour. Today's WorldTour peloton has blown straight past that.

    A cyclist drinking from a bottle on a ride

    The numbers behind the win

    Vollering took her second Tour De France Femmes title this year, covering 1,174.5 km from Lausanne to Nice. Across those nine stages, her team clocked her fueling at an average of 110g of carbohydrate per hour on the bike.

    • 9,050g

      of total carbohydrate over the nine days, including meals off the bike

    • 3,450g

      of carbohydrate fueled during racing across all nine stages

    • 110g/hour

      average carb intake during race stages

    Broken down by product, her in-race fueling looked like this:

    • Drink Mix 160 — 47 bottles

    • Drink Mix 320 — 9 bottles

    • Gel 100 — 20 sachets

    • Gel 160 — 10 sachets

    • Gel 100 Caf 100 — 6 sachets

    Elsa Hugot, team nutritionist for FDJ-Suez, put it simply: staying out of an energy deficit on any single stage is the difference between recovering in time for the next one and digging a hole you can't climb out of over nine days of racing.

    Here's what's in the bottles and jersey pockets of the world's biggest teams.

    • UAE Team Emirates XRG

      If you want to fuel like Tadej Pogačar, think precision and relentless carb delivery.

      Translation: massive energy, minimal stomach rebellion.

      Enervit
    • The Visma–Lease a Bike

      Fuel exactly like Jonas Vingegaard. This team relies on the highly optimized line from Amacx.

      Measure everything. Fuel constantly.

      Amacx
    • Netcompany INEOS + Uno-X Mobility

      Maurten encapsulates carbohydrates in a pH-sensitive gel that helps shuttle carbs through the stomach with less GI distress.

      More fuel. Less sloshing.

      Maurten
    • The Team Picnic–PostNL & Lotto–Intermarché

      These two teams leverage the dialed fueling system from Precision Fuel and Hydration.

      Plus, they use OOfos recovery slides anytime they aren't pedaling. That counts for something!

    The Secret Performance Stack The Tour is Using

    Here's the short list of products top riders are using at the Tour to make it through three weeks of the hardest racing on earth.

    1. Nomio box and bottle

      Nomio

      Nomio condenses 6.5 pounds of broccoli sprouts into a single 60ml shot.

      Take it 2–3 hours before your key effort — it's a cellular switch-flipper, not a quick fuel source.

    2. 500mg

      Amacx Beet Shot

      The Amacx Beet Shot delivers 500mg of nitrates per shot.

      Take one every morning to let the benefits compound.

    3. SwissRX Nitric Oxide Pro

      SwissRX Nitric Oxide Pro

      Our top-selling performance booster, and the secret ingredient is black garlic.

      Two capsules every morning. One rule that makes or breaks it: no mouthwash.

    4. Bicarb

      Bicarb

      That's where Bicarb saves you.

      You're taking this for performance, not taste.

    Run this stack. You'll understand why the Tour peloton is obsessed.

    • Sample Packs Save the Day

      There are always great deals, and I am thankful of the "sample" packs available. I generally know what works with my body, but sometimes the flavors/textures of newer / different yet similar products are not to my liking and appreciate the availability of trying before committing to a large bag / quantity that I can't choke down.

      Fatigue Resistance: The Number That Predicts Your Result

      Fatigue resistance is your ability to hold your effort — pace, power, output — late in a race instead of it feeling compromised or reduced.
