Comments: I have riden my road bike over 3,000 miles the last two years and use Jelly Belly for a pickup durng training and events. It is easy to use easy to carry, and seems to add a pick up during my exercise times. I recommend Jelly Belly to those I ride with. And the price seems to be fair and reasonable. |
|
Comments: Use during/after bike rides |
|
Comments: I bought these for my husband. He uses them before a run or a bike ride for enery. He says they work well for him! |
|
Comments: I've been running fairly consistently for nearly 4 years. Typically, I try to get out for a long run about once a week. On those runs I've tried everything: gels, sports bars, sports drinks, water, etc., but nothing compares to Sports Beans. On the suggestion of a friend, I picked up a few packets, and decided to take one along with me this morning. I popped a few of the variety pack beans in every 20-30 minutes, and was able to do my 8 miler, with significant hills, without any problem. My only regret is that I haven't tried these sooner! They go down easy, are flavorful, and gave me that extra boost I needed as I was climbing. Looking forward to next's weekend's long run already! |
|
Comments: Taste was not good, not a fan. I would prefer regular Jelly Beans. |
|
Comments: I used these while mountain biking. They do all they should and taste great also. Only con I can come up with is they are hard to eat while riding. I don't mind taking a break every half hour or so, so not that big of a deal. And I do recommend them to everyone with in ear shot. |
|
Comments: These are great for replenishment before, during, and after long distance running. The beans are easy to carry and easy to swallow. They are very flavorful and sweet and provide a real exercise boost. |
|
Comments: These are great both pre and post workout. I am looking foward to having them before my marathon this weekend! :-) |
|
Comments: I ordered two cases for our state swim meet and gave them as "fire up" gifts to the high school kids. They loved them and used the beans all 3 days of our meet. Fun treat! |
|
Comments: I like to use the Sport Beans shortly before longer runs (5 miles +) or if I'm in a hurry between activities with the kids. The individual pouches make the Beans easy to handle yet allow me to have enough to share with my kids if needed. Everyone in the family loves them so I can even use them as a reward and only I know they are nutritious. |
|
Comments: As an crosstrainer, my workouts consist of alot of running and alot of weightlifting 5 days a week. Jelly Belly sport beans provide energy for sustained runs and post workout glycogen for muscles. I have a measurably faster recovery time when I run and train with jelly belly. |
|
Comments: Running, biking, after swim. It's a great pick me up. I put together a welcome bag for a friend of mine that recently went back to work and put a couple of packs of "Sports-Beans" in the W/B. She loved them and asked me where I got them. Her son, in the Military, wanted a case to take w/him on his reserve weekend! They R GREAT! |
|
Comments: Excellent source of natural energy for for those who do alot of walking in the night shift i.e. hospitals. |
|
Comments: I race distances from 5Ks to marathons year round, and I LOVE Sport Beans. They're easy to chew, taste great and provide as much of an energy boost as anything can 15 miles into a 20-mile training run. I like the assorted flavor packs best. It's a great variety. If you like regular Jelly Bellys and you work out for extended periods of time, these are a safe bet. |
|
Comments: These are great. I have a hard time catching calories with the current schedule that I keep. These go great in yogurt, as an aside, or as a mid lift plus. |
