Loved IT! |
| Comments: |
I have tried a lot of different supplements for long distance running. This one is by far my favorite. The consistency (viscosity?) is perfect and the flavor is just right. Then, wait for it...it kicks in, nice! I hadn''t run so well in over 6 months, thanks for giving me the kick in the butt on my 8 miler last weekend! Sah-Weet! :) |

Where is the burst??? |
| Comments: |
Well I went out for my run today and took a 2nd Surge Double Expresso around the five mile mark.....not sure how long it takes to feel this stuff kick in...but I never did. Purchased a 4 of these from a local sports store, will give it another shot but not likely to pay twice the price for equal/less results I get from other gels. |

Great Product |
| Comments: |
I'm a performance training professional who has trained numerous clients for endurance events. I've been looking for a product to recommend that suits the all needs of endurance athletes and once again Pacific Health Labs leads the way. 2nd Surge has all you need: carbs to help replenish glycogen, protein/ amino acids to help repair and fuels the muscles during competition, electrolytes to help keep you hydrated, and even a bit of caffeine to give you that boost. I prefer the Chocolate flavor which tastes like the fudge they put on soft serve ice cream at McDonalds. |

Blasted up the Pacific Grade |
| Comments: |
I was riding the Ebbetts Pass Century which has the Pacific Grade at mile 85. The PG has sections that are 24%.
I had a 2nd surge about 20 min before the climb and rode hard all the way to the top. |

Never again! |
| Comments: |
This stuff sounds amazing when you read about it so I tried it in my race this weekend and it was hands down the worst nutrition product I have ever used during a run, and I've used just about everything! There is so much simple that it caused me to sugar crash it was a disaster. My fault for not reading the label more closely. I'm sticking wth low sugar gels from now on. |

My favourite gel |
| Comments: |
I really don''t like gels, I use them for racing because I have to but its always something I dread. I work in a bike shop and was given a 2nd surge gel to try. It was lovely, i really look forward to using them now. Not only do I really like the taste of them but they really seem to work better than other caffinated gels I''ve used. |

I ran Grandfather Mountain Marathon last week and beat my goal and last years time by 12 minutes. The gel works great and I restocked my supply after the race for my long runs. |

Amazing |
| Comments: |
I started to incorporate 2nd Surge into my long runs and will keep using the product leading up to the Chicago Marathon. The combination of Accel Gel plus the higher caffeine 2nd Surge for the second part of the run, makes it a perfect combination to increase endurance, reduce muscle damage and preserve muscle glycogen through training and racing. Moreover 2nd Surge helps to minimize the mental fatigue that usually occurs towards the end of long distance events. Can''t get any better. The Double Expresso 2nd Surge is like a big gift and reward during the last few miles. |

Awesome |
| Comments: |
Used 2nd Surge for first time this past weekend at 500 festival mini marathon and it was incredible. I had had a bad month of training prior to the race and was worried about bonking. Took 2nd Surge just before mile 10 and holy cow! Wish I would have taken earlier in the race, because I finished awesome. This is by far the best gel out there. Very satisfied. |

Amazing Stuff |
| Comments: |
I tried this gel for the first time at the Nautica South Beach triathlon and absolutely loved it. The ingredients are pure and the results are impressive. I have used it three time for three different races and I have had great performances. I really recommend giving 2nd surge a try, you will not be disappointed.
Its now my new favorite gel. |

Freaking Awesome!! |

I have use 2nd Surge in training a few times to test it out and I thought it was pretty good. But when I used it in Wildflower It totally rocked. I had endless energy and focus and the flavors and consistancy are really, really good! |

2nd Surge |
| Comments: |
I use 2nd Surge before every yoga and Pilates class. It gets me ready on short notice and does not cause any kind of crash afterwards. I have been afraid to try the five hour energy boosters, partly because I don''t like the ingredients, and partly because I don''t want a five hour energy boost. I want something to get me over the transition from sedentary to active without jerking me around. 2nd Surge does that.
I used to use Celsius, no comparison. Same for just using a cup of coffee.
Since I often do trial work, there are times when I get tired during the day, and as a mental and physical pick me up, I use 2nd Surge.
It''s hard to believe that something that good is legal. |
