Energy Bars

Of course! On decathlon.com.gr you will find a huge variety of energy bars that will give you the necessary boost for every sport you love. Our collection includes cereal bars, almond/fruit paste bars, and organic (bio) bars designed for running, cycling, hiking, and all kinds of athletic activities.

The best time depends on your energy needs.
The primary use is during exercise. In workouts or races lasting longer than 1 hour (e.g., cycling, hiking, trail running), consume 1 bar every 45 to 60 minutes to maintain steady glucose levels and avoid exhaustion.
Before exercise, you can consume 1 bar about 30 to 45 minutes before starting to top up your energy stores without burdening your stomach with a heavy meal.

A typical sports energy bar (size 25g to 50g) usually yields 100 to 200 calories (kcal). Most of these calories come from easily digestible carbohydrates (sugars and complex carbs), providing quick fuel for your muscles.

Yes, there are! At Decathlon, there are gluten-free energy bar options available, primarily made with natural ingredients like fruit paste (fig, date), almonds, cashews, or certified gluten-free oat flakes. They are ideal for athletes with celiac disease, intolerances, or sensitive digestive systems.

An energy bar is rich in carbohydrates and low in protein/fats. Its goal is to provide immediate energy before or during exercise.
On the other hand, a protein bar contains a high percentage of protein (10g to 20g+ per bar). Its goal is muscle recovery and structural repair of muscles after training, or use as a satisfying snack throughout the day.

At Decathlon, you will discover a wide range of flavors to avoid taste fatigue on long outings!
Find fruity flavors like strawberry, blueberry, banana, date, fig, and citrus, which are refreshing and very pleasant to consume during sweating.
There are also sweet options with nuts, such as energy bars with chocolate, caramel, hazelnut, and almond, offering great taste and steady energy.
If you prefer savory flavors, opt for bars with salted peanuts or nuts, which are ideal for long endurance sports where the body craves salt.
