Tear open the package 3/4 of the way and put it in your mouth. Squeeze the gel into your mouth from the bottom of the tube. Chew the gel as needed and then swallow it. Follow up the gel with water.
Don’t pull the tab off completely since you might not have anywhere to throw it in the midst of your workout. Tear the pouch open just enough to easily squeeze out the gel. Then, insert the open end of the pouch into your mouth. Hold the pouch on the front and back side with your thumb and index finger. Press the pouch near the bottom and move your fingers upwards to squeeze the contents of the pouch into your mouth. Keep squeezing until the pouch is empty. This is similar to the motion you might use to squeeze toothpaste from the bottom of the tube. Once all of the gel is in your mouth, chew it if needed and then swallow it. If the gel is a watery consistency, you might not need to chew it at all. But if it’s a thicker gel then you might have to chew it similar to how you’d chew jello. Take a few sips of water after you swallow the gel to help wash it down. If the gel was a watery consistency, then you might not need much water to wash it down. If it was a thick consistency, you might need more water. Always drink more water if you are still thirsty!
