How did I not include Gatorade! Often times I'll fill my bottle with that so I have some calories and electrolytes as I get moving again. Also, I made it sound like I don't want much caffeine...that's normally not the case. We filmed this at 6pm last night which is why I didn't want much at that time. Morning or midday...I keep it pumping through my veins, haha!
I usually go for a coke and pastries to eat on the spot. And then I refill my 2 bottles with gatorade/pocari sweat and water on the other. After that I get a pack ir two of gummy bears depending on when the next stop is.
A Coke (and/or Gatorade), Payday Bar is my go-to bar as it has 240 calories consisting of 7grams of protein, 13g of fat and 27g of carbohydrates per bar (I prefer this to a snickers in hot climates because it doesn't melt in your jersey pocket)..... and lastly, a salty bag of Kettle Brand Salt and Pepper which hit the spot to counter all the sugar.
My go to snacks are haribo golden bears (the ratio of glucose to fuctose is an ideal ratio for your body to absorb) or their cola bottle candy and a bag of Mrs. Vickis S&V.....i typically don't buy drinks but if i do its a coconut water and I mix in my electrolyte stick packs.....
very interesting topic. my favorite is a snickers for sure. :-) Always felt quilty for the coke but will make use of it more often. also a big fan of haribos for sure
For sodium I carry a small miniature packet of Himalayan Salt. I'll have enough for a whole day if need be. Very cheap alternative. Any drawbacks in this setup?
Ha, that's my gas station stop, it's in Folsom right? The only problem is every 3rd time I go in they are out of the powdered sugar donuts! That's my ride snack latey.
Thank you for all videos and tips. I have a question: I suppose that your recommendations are for them who has normal or low body fat. What do you recommend for them as me who wants to lose weight? Should I buy products that have lower calories and/or carbohydrates? Thank you!
Great question! No, I wouldn't opt for lower calorie options while riding. That's because you want to "fuel the work." Focus on ending the day in a caloric deficit. Check out the "Dialed Health Shred" protocol on my website to learn food tracking and guidelines.
No that’s my bad I should’ve specified, I meant a rice crispies treat like the little block of the breakfast cereal held together with sugar and butter :)
If I'm solo, I'll spend 5-10 minutes max at a gas station. With a group, I'll just go with the flow. Cafe stop though...I might be putting the feet up for a bit, haha! You?
@@dialedhealth yeah 10 minutes sounds about right taking also a few minutes to do some 10-20 seconds stretches. Maybe I’ll take more time for that bottle of Coke before burping my way up on the saddle 😂
Nope! It's the fuel your body needs in the moment. Of course the amounts vary depending on numerous factors, but refueling carbohydrate stores is a must for endurance athletes.
Snickers and a Red Bull or Coke, is my go to. Definitely want to eat that Snickers like now tho, taking chocolate on a warm ride, is never a good option!

I’ve been gravitating towards the Gatorade fits. They are real fruit juice and sodium. I think they’re a better choice than regular Gatorade.
Once I discovered BodyArmour I never looked back!
Gatorade 🤢I never fail to cramp after drinking the stuff.
A convenience store pack of Fig Newtons is a favorite of mine.
OG Triple OG of bars
The Fireball grab is a pro move. 😂
Did he get that on camera? Hahaha
Not always at gas stations but the Go Go Squeeze apple sauces are great for summer riding! Also fruit strips
I love some fruit Puree! I get this packs at Starbucks all the time.
Derek, I love the thumbnail. Great to see something other than a "Home Alone" face.
hahahaha that really is every thumbnail face
My go to gas station fill up is a Red Bull and a Pearson’s Salted Nut Roll. Some caffeine paired with some salty & sweet candy.
Pearson's Salted Nut Roll...Is that like a Pay Day?
@@dialedhealth Similar but better. Some sugary nougat in the middle, not just caramel.
I usually go for a coke and pastries to eat on the spot. And then I refill my 2 bottles with gatorade/pocari sweat and water on the other. After that I get a pack ir two of gummy bears depending on when the next stop is.
Nice. Whats Pocari Sweat?
@@dialedhealth Japana’s version of gatorade. Electrolytes drink.
Pocari Sweat is way much better than Gatorade/Powerade. Also like here in the Philippines 🇵🇭 we have so much natural coconut juice.
Payday bars. Sweet and salty. Rare find in Canada but I’ll get it if available.
Whats a Canadian staple besides a Tim Horton's stop?
I appreciate the practice advice. I am surprise at the pure candy and chip choices. I do love a payday bar.
It's like the opposite of how you want to eat outside of your rides, haha. Happy you found it helpful!

Don't feel guilty! Your body needs the calories.
love those ride burps after smashing a gas station stop soda…also pringle’s ftw!!
A burp of satisfaction, haha!
Fig bars, Lenny and Larry's Vegan Cookies, MetRX meal replacement bar. Muscle Milk, Cup of Noodles, etc
is the carb reading accurate on coke if it is high fructose, which apparently doesn't metabolize the same as sugar in your liver?

That’s it! Owe man that sounds 🔥
Twix is my go to lol I feel like there should be some carbs in there and they sit happy in my tummy
Definitely some carbs in there. That was the candy I ate first out of my kids trick or treat buckets last year, haha!

@@dialedhealth Thank you for your answer! I will check your website 👍
If you are bonking, get a Hostess Apple Pie. They have saved me from some dark places.
clif bar, natures bakery fig bar or, mid fuel ride today was a blueberry scone. coke if I need one.
those natures fig bars are awesome.
@@dialedhealth agreed!!
My go to-rice crispies and a Red Bull!
That’s a solid combo ✔️ Might be up there with a coke & pringles 💯
like breakfast snap crackle and pop?
No that’s my bad I should’ve specified, I meant a rice crispies treat like the little block of the breakfast cereal held together with sugar and butter :)
Do you actually leave your bike out there unattended/unlocked like that?
Sometimes I do, but I actually pulled it in while we filmed because it was a longer stop than normal. Honestly just kind of depends where I am.
How much time do you spend refuelling normally? Considering when you stop and resume
If I'm solo, I'll spend 5-10 minutes max at a gas station. With a group, I'll just go with the flow. Cafe stop though...I might be putting the feet up for a bit, haha! You?
@@dialedhealth yeah 10 minutes sounds about right taking also a few minutes to do some 10-20 seconds stretches. Maybe I’ll take more time for that bottle of Coke before burping my way up on the saddle 😂
@@r.ryder1 haha!
Fig Newtons and Pearsons Salted Nut Rolls FTW.
Fig newtons might be the Realest OG gas station food!
Gummie bears and a coke or Gatorade and strawberry pop tarts.
POP TARTS! Thats a good one.
I usually only stop an hour from home if I’m tired so probably a coffee and a snickers
Great combo!
I like to pop some candy during ride does it help
Heck yeah it does.
Isn't too much sugar bad for insulin rush related performances? Thanks for the advices!
Nope! It's the fuel your body needs in the moment. Of course the amounts vary depending on numerous factors, but refueling carbohydrate stores is a must for endurance athletes.
Cliff bar?
Love it
Snickers and a Red Bull or Coke, is my go to. Definitely want to eat that Snickers like now tho, taking chocolate on a warm ride, is never a good option!
During long rides I like to go to either honey buns or to oatmeal cream pies. 😋
Clift bar and Clift blocks
Cliff blocks at a gas station would be a find 👌🏼
Gatorade and a payday candy bar or a banana instead of the payday (but only if they look good).
Payday bar im low carb so a sugary soft drink would give me a horrible migraine
Nerds Clusters!
Those are incredible 🤤
Almond Joy, Gatorade, plain Fritos
Snickers, Coke, Banana, G2. If I'm at the tail end of my ride I might grab a brewski too.
I might have to make the gas station brewski happen at some point in the near future...
Fritos!
Honey buns are magical ✨️
Donette donuts, salted nut roll, gummy bears or gummy worms, and Coke. If I’m overheated, then a Mt. Dew slushy.
Those crumb Donettes are insane on a ride! I've had those with a cold brew before.
I like a good slurpee or slushie.
Bananas and top ramen/cup a noodle
Cup A Noodle on a cold winter day would be clutch! Good idea.
Jellybeans, gummy bears, or gummy worms I always go for.
Can’t go wrong!
Give me a roller dog!
GET THE F OUTTA HERE! hahaha, no way
@@dialedhealth come on man! It’s the best!!! 300+ calories and 600mg+ of sodium! I love it!
aka “Wizard fingers” 😂
Hostess apple fruit pie is like Popeye’s spinach
😂🎯
Rice crispy treats
Meanwhile, Bikes were Stolen when filming so long inside the store! 😉
Haha I honestly brought it inside during the filming 💯
Tito’s over Fireball every time.
Haha, AGREED. As long as I have some soda water and a lime.
Bobo's Oat Bites, Stuff'd if possible.
Dude I've been stocking up on the stuffed bites! Just got a box of their pop tarts to try...
@@dialedhealth Thanks for the tip, I am going to try those too! Also, looking forward to seeing how you do at Unbound! I am predicting top 10!
snickers, all day
Yeah Buddy!
Cookies like Oreos
