Frequently Asked Questions:
Fueling and usage
When should I take Kinetrix gels?
Take 1 gel 15–20 minutes before training or competition for a performance boost, and another during extended activities (every 45–60 minutes) to maintain energy and focus — max 5 gels per day.
How many carbs are in each gel?
Each gel delivers around 20–25g of natural carbs from honeydew — a natural mix of glucose and fructose for quick and sustained energy.
Can I take more than one per session?
Yes, up to 5 per day. We don’t recommend more than 5 due to the stimulant content from Guarana and B vitamins. Consult your coach or physician for advice.
Will it cause an energy crash?
No. Its slow-burning natural sugars and balanced stimulants promote steady energy without spikes or crashes.
Is it safe for daily use?
Yes, especially around training. Just monitor your total carb and caffeine intake, especially if combining with other sources.
Is the gel suitable for all types of athletes?
Yes, it’s designed for endurance athletes (runners, cyclists, triathletes), combat sports athletes, and anyone engaging in prolonged or high-intensity physical activity.
Is it only for athletes?
No, Kinetrix is popular with many hikers, hunters, fishermen and winter/water sports enthusiasts across Aotearoa.
Can I use it for strength or HIIT?
Absolutely. It fuels explosive output and recovery in strength, circuits, and combat sports.
Ingredients & Performance
What makes Kinetrix different from other gels?
Unlike standard gels that rely on simple sugars, this gel is based on honeydew honey — a natural, slow-burning carbohydrate — combined with performance-boosting ingredients like L-Citrulline, Beta-Alanine, Taurine, Guarana, and B vitamins to support endurance, focus, and recovery.
Why honeydew, not regular sugar?
Honeydew honey contains a natural mix of glucose and fructose for fast and sustained energy, along with antioxidants, oligosaccharides, and trace minerals that support overall performance and recovery better than processed sugars.
Is Kinetrix gut-friendly?
Yes. No maltodextrin, no bloating. Just natural, easy-to-digest honeydew and gut-supporting prebiotics.
How much caffeine is in each gel?
80mg from Guarana — a natural form of caffeine.
Is Guarana better than synthetic caffeine?
Yes. It delivers smoother, longer-lasting energy, with fewer crashes and more focus.
Will it crash like caffeine drinks?
Unlikely. Honeydew’s natural sugars and Guarana’s slow-release caffeine give you steady energy without the spikes and crashes of synthetic energy products.
What does L-Citrulline do?
It boosts nitric oxide to help increase blood flow, reduce fatigue, and enhance endurance.
What’s Beta-Alanine for?
It buffers lactic acid, delaying fatigue, especially during intense or prolonged exercise.
Why include Taurine?
Taurine supports hydration, muscle performance, and mental focus during extended sessions.
What about B vitamins?
They help convert carbs into energy and support focus, muscle control, and the nervous system.
Dietary information
Is the product natural?
The base is natural honeydew honey, and the formulation is 98% natural. The only ingredients that aren’t naturally derived are the B vitamins and amino acids, added to boost the inherent properties of the natural ingredients.
Is it keto or low-carb friendly?
No. It’s built for performance, not ketosis. Each gel contains real carbs for fuelling and recovery.
Is Kinetrix vegan?
No — it contains honeydew honey, a bee-derived product.
Is it vegetarian?
Yes. All other ingredients are plant-based or nature-identical.
Recovery, Diets & Compatibility
How do carbs help recovery?
Carbs help restore muscle glycogen — the energy your body burns during training. Replenishing it is key to faster recovery and future performance.
Should I pair it with protein after workouts?
Yes, a 3:1 or 4:1 carb-to-protein ratio is recommended to boost muscle repair and recovery after training.
Can it reduce cramps or fatigue?
Indirectly, yes. Steady energy plus Taurine and B vitamins support muscle function and reduce early fatigue or cramping.
