Description

Clif BLOKS Energy Chews are chewable carbohydrate and electrolyte cubes for endurance training and racing, at 33 calories each. Nine flavours are stocked, including three with caffeine at 25 mg or 50 mg per serving and a Margarita version with extra sodium. They come as single packets, six packs, a mixed seven pack and boxes of eighteen.

Who it's for

Runners, riders and paddlers who want fuel they can take a bite of rather than swallow whole. A cube at a time makes it easy to pace intake by the clock instead of committing to a whole gel, and the packaging opens one-handed on the move.

Less suited to anyone who struggles to chew while breathing hard - at high intensity a liquid or gel goes down more easily. They are also not recommended for children or during pregnancy, because several flavours carry caffeine.

Choosing a flavour

  • No caffeine - Strawberry, Mountain Berry, Sour Green Apple, Sour Strawberry Lemonade, Salted Watermelon.
  • 25 mg caffeine - Orange, Tropical Punch. Roughly a quarter of a strong coffee, for a lift late in a long session.
  • 50 mg caffeine - Black Cherry. The higher dose, usually saved for the back end of a race.
  • Extra sodium - Margarita at 150 mg sodium, for hot conditions and heavy sweaters.

A common approach on a long day is to run non-caffeinated flavours early and switch to a caffeinated one when it starts to matter, rather than taking caffeine from the start.

Formats

Single packets are for trying a flavour or topping up a race kit. Six packs and boxes of eighteen are the sensible way to buy once you know what agrees with you. The seven pack mixed box is the way to find out which that is without committing to a full box of something you dislike at hour four.

What's in them

BLOKS are made with 95% organic ingredients and are a carbohydrate supplement with green tea extract as the caffeine source in the caffeinated flavours, plus potassium. Full nutrition and ingredient available under Specifications.

FAQ's

What are CLIF BLOKS Energy Chews?
After numerous hours of training and racing, the body craves variety. To provide athletes with another sports nutrition option, we created CLIF BLOKS Energy Chews, semi-solid, easy-to-chew sources of carbohydrates. Simple-to-handle and with a nutrition profile similar to CLIF SHOT Energy Gel, CLIF BLOKS Energy Chews complement our other CLIF Athlete Series and CLIF products and provide athletes with another option for their sports nutrition program.

Who needs CLIF BLOKS?
CLIF BLOKS are primarily used by performance athletes – cyclists, runners, mountain bikers, triathletes, adventure racers, etc. However, any performance-oriented athlete needing a quick burst of energy can benefit from CLIF BLOKS.

When should I eat CLIF BLOKS Energy Chews?
Half a packet of CLIF BLOKS can be eaten 15 minutes prior to activity to increase blood sugar levels, followed by 1-2 packets per hour during activity. Consumption of CLIF BLOKS should always be followed with a mouthful of water.

Why not eat energy bars instead?
For many athletes, solid food is sometimes difficult to digest during rigorous physical activity and it can take some time to be assimilated by the body. Many athletes find that our energy chews are easier to digest, plus they provide quick energy by delivering carbohydrates to the body. Additionally, CLIF BLOKS' packaging is convenient and easy-to-access and helps minimize the distraction of unwrapping and chewing food during rigorous activities.

What are Clif BLOKS energy chews?
Clif BLOKS are chewable cubes of carbohydrate for use during exercise, made with 95% organic ingredients. Each cube is 33 calories, so you can pace your intake a cube at a time rather than committing to a whole gel. Nine flavours are stocked, some with caffeine and one with extra sodium.

How many carbs are in Clif BLOKS?
Each Clif BLOKS cube is 33 calories, and the packet is designed to be taken across an hour of effort rather than all at once. Oz Backcountry does not publish the per-flavour carbohydrate grams here because Clif's Australian nutrition panel is the authority on it — check the packet or Clif's own panel for the exact figure.

Do Clif BLOKS have caffeine?
Some flavours do. Orange and Tropical Punch carry 25 mg of caffeine per serving and Black Cherry carries 50 mg, which is stated in the variant name when you select it. The remaining flavours stocked here have none. The caffeine comes from green tea extract rather than being added as pure caffeine.

Are Clif BLOKS gluten free?
Clif does not label BLOKS as gluten free, and Oz Backcountry will not claim it on their behalf — allergen status is a regulated claim and the packet is the authority. If you are coeliac or highly sensitive, check the current packet, since formulations change.

Should I use Clif BLOKS or Clif Bars for running?
BLOKS for running, bars for before or after. Solid food is harder to digest at pace, and the cube format lets you take a small dose without stopping or unwrapping a bar. Bars suit lower-intensity efforts and long days where you want something more substantial.

Which Clif BLOKS flavour has extra sodium?
Margarita is the high-sodium option at 150 mg per serving, aimed at hot conditions and athletes who lose a lot of salt in sweat. Salted Watermelon is also positioned as a saltier flavour. For long efforts in Australian summer heat, sodium matters as much as carbohydrate does.

Are Clif BLOKS suitable for children or during pregnancy?
Clif states that BLOKS are not recommended for children or pregnant women, because several flavours contain caffeine and the product is formulated as a sports supplement. If you are pregnant or managing a medical condition, check with your doctor first.
