SiS recommends that, depending on the sport and activity, you can aim for 1–3+ gels per hour to reach a carbohydrate intake of approximately 60–90 g per hour.
A higher carbohydrate intake needs to be introduced gradually, so always test the number of gels, timing and taste during regular training sessions before using the same setup on race day.
