Reviews

Broos Carl Cycling

I’ve been using the before drink for several years now, especially for longer efforts or tough bike rides. The taste is fairly neutral and remains fine even after using it several times. It’s easy to take with you if you have to ride somewhere or if you’re going on holiday. As it’s a single dose, it’s difficult to get the amount wrong (compared with other products that come in a tub). Once on the bike, I feel that I get energy quickly and a boost for the first few hours; your focus is simply better.

Noticeable difference.

01 Before used for recent races and I can really feel a difference at the start of my races. More focus and strength during the first kilometres, which is hugely important. I’ll keep using this for the start of important races.

Before is perfect

Where other pre-workouts always made me tremble, sweat and/or become very restless, this Before gives me the perfect energy boost I need after a long day at work for my workout, or the right boost for an endurance run. It also tastes delicious.

A loyal Victus customer for years, the flavours of the drinks on offer are lovely both before, during and after a training session or competition. The way the fixed "subscription" works, whereby I automatically receive a new supply at a certain interval based on the number of training sessions per week I entered, also works very well, provided the products are in stock. Hopefully you’ll continue making new products for a long time to come.

Victus products

Used during enduro bike rides (8h +) -before – clearly effective, makes you feel sharper straight away -during drink – does what it needs to do, without a major dip -during gel – same, makes you feel stronger without a major dip -after – definitely makes a difference, less trouble with aches and such all in all perhaps a little on the expensive side, but quality, no sugar bombs, good taste, works for a long time without drawbacks. Found the website a bit difficult. Delivery could have been quicker. But extremely satisfied! Great product, quality!

My “go-to” fuelling concept

After trying various sports drinks, I’ve really become a fan of Victus. The powder is very easy to mix in my bottle. A quick shake and it’s completely dissolved, without any annoying lumps. Before, During and After are therefore very pleasant to drink. It also feels as though the drink is absorbed quickly by my body, which helps me stay well hydrated and feel energetic during longer workouts. The refreshing flavours also make it a drink you genuinely look forward to, even on hot days. For me, Victus has now become a regular choice for all my training sessions. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a sports drink that tastes good, is easy to prepare and pleasant to drink.

I have been using Victus for several years. From the very beginning, they have been helpful with orders and the correct use of their products. They learn from the feedback they receive and improve their service as a result. Their fuel guide, among other things, has been further developed, and they continue to make progress.

Energy at the right level time and time again with Victus

Does what it’s supposed to do! Good flavours and good drinks and gels to alternate between.

Use before/after/during. And that feels good, especially with longer training sessions or races lasting 4–8 hours.

Fuel Protocol – 01

Fuel protocol step 01

Built for the 30 minutes before. The session doesn't start with the first step, pedal or swim stroke. It starts in the 30 minutes beforehand. That's the window 01 Before is designed for, giving your body time before the work begins.

Fuel protocol step 02

Built around one formula. 01 Before combines 200mg caffeine, amino acids and electrolytes in one formula, selected for the period before training or racing.

Fuel protocol step 03

Developed with elite coaches and athletes under real training and race conditions. Independently doping-tested through LGC, because preparation should be as reliable as the performance that follows.

Other brands add options. We remove decisions.

When brands expand the number of options, the athlete carries the complexity - mixing, combining, calculating, adjusting. When on the move and fatigued, that calculation fails.

Our protocol fixes that, so there's nothing to manage, and execution stays exactly as planned.

The Victus Protocol

When every protocol breaks, ours holds. One formula per phase, only the format changes.

One formula. One drink.

30 minutes before. Set before you move.

Caffeine (200mg), electrolytes, amino acids

One formula. One drink.

30 minutes after. You stop, recovery starts.

Proteins (21g), carbs (10g), micronutrients (26)

Ik gebruik de before drank reeds enkele jaren, vooral voor langere inspanningen of zware ritten met de fiets. De smaak is vrij neutraal en blijft ok ook na meerdere keren te gebruiken. Het is gemakkelijk mee te nemen indien je op verplaatsing moet rijden of indien je op reis gaat. Doordat het een singel dosis kan je je moeilijk vergissen in de hoeveelheid (ten opzichte van andere producten die in een pot zitten). Eenmaal op de fiets heb ik de indruk dat ik snel energie heb en een boost voor de eerste uren, je focus is gewoon beter.

Merkbaar verschil.

01 Before gebruikt bij recente races en merk echt een verschil bij het begin van m'n races. Meer focus en kracht tijdens de eerste kilometers wat enorm belangrijk is. Zal dit blijven gebruiken voor de start van belangrijke races.

Wasr andere pre work outs me altijd lieten trillen, zweten en/of erg onrustig lieten worden geeft deze before mij de perfecte energie boost die ik nofig heb na een lange dag werk voor mijn workout of de juiste boost voor een durance run. Smaakt ook heerlijk.

Al jaren trouwe klant bij Victus, smaken van de dranken deze wat worden aangeboden zijn lekker voor zowel vooraf, tijdens en na een training of wedstrijd. Ook de manier voor het gebruik van een vast "abonnement' waardoor ik aan de hand van mijn ingevoerde aantal trainingen per week automatisch na een bepaalde interval een nieuwe voorraad bezorgt krijg werkt heel goed mits producten op voorraad zijn. Hopelijk gaan jullie nog lang door met het maken van nieuwe producten.

gebruikt bij enduro fiets tochten (8u +) -before - duidelijk effectief, voelt je gelijk scherper -tijdens drankje - doet wat het moet doen, zonder grote dip -tijdens gel - zelfde, voelt je sterker zonder grote dip -after - scheelt zeker, minder last van pijntjes ed al met al wellicht iets aan de duurdere kant, wel kwaliteit geen suiker bommen, goede smaak, werkt langdurig zonder nadelen. vond website beetje lastig. levering mocht sneller. maar uiterst tevreden! fijn product, kwaliteit!
