At 5-Hour Energy we love spoofs. Like the idea from the movie There's Something About Mary that we used for the Blog post "Blowing 5-Hour Energy Right Out of the Water". To add to the list, Jay Leno also did a spoof of a 5-Hour Energy commercial on his new primetime gig The Jay Leno Show. Leno's 5-Day Energy shot has enough energy to "get you through the week….and do everything you dreamed of". See the 5-Day Energy commercial here at 7 min. 40 sec.

5-Hour Energy recently appeared again on late night TV when former Saturday Night LiveJason Sudeikis on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. After talking about working with singer Taylor Swift and the skits he pitched her, Sudeikis told Fallon how he took care of his low on energy before the show with a 5-Hour Energy Shot.

Sudeikis even brought one for Fallon to try and gave the crowd a laugh when answering Fallon's question about taste. We think he needs to try the new Grape or Pomegranate flavors that fans are raving about.

You can watch the full interview with Sudeikis below or just fast forward to the last minute (about 2 minutes in) and watch Sudeikis gave Fallon a the gift of 5-Hour Energy.

The 5-Hour Energy team is thrilled to introduce Kathryn Springer, mother and college student, of Paris, Texas as the brand’s newest Featured Fan and winner of the team’s biggest prize to-date, a one-year supply of her favorite 5-Hour Energy shots. With a little help from 5-Hour Energy, Kathryn is working hard to keep her family afloat in today’s downed economics, plus manage her 20-hour college load and enjoy time with her family.

As with previous Featured Fan winners, we had the 5-Hour Energy Guy interview the recent addition to the 5-Hour Energy VIP list.

Energy Guy:
Kathryn, when did you start taking 5-Hour Energy shots?

Kathryn:
I had my first shot in 2008. I started to notice that when the end of the week crept up and it was about midway through my day, I ran out of energy to accomplish the things I needed to do.

Energy Guy:
What made you start taking 5-Hour Energy shots?

Kathryn:
I began college and needed a little extra lift for early morning classes, which most college students can agree to. But I’m also working full time and have a family to spend time with.

Check out the Energy Shot Blog to read the rest of the interview!

Since 2007 5-Hour Energy has been keeping our nation’s soldiers alert and focused on the frontlines by donating shots for care packages from Operation Gratitude.

Consistency has been key for the 5-Hour Energy Racing team in the 2009 season. A consistent drive from start to finish has proven to keep them on track. For Steve Wallace and his No. 66 5-Hour Energy Chevrolet, a top-10 finish at Richmond International Raceway has pushed him into contention for a NASCAR Nationwide Series

Sitting a mere two championship positions behind Wallace is teammate Brendan Gaughan, pilot of the No. 62 5-Hour Energy Extra Strength Chevrolet.

Gaughan has impressed his Rusty Wallace Racing team as the seasons second highest ranking rookie, and has plenty of opportunities to push forward with 5-Hour consistency to a memorable first year.

It’s been called the "obesity tax", "junk food tax", and "fat tax", and even more states are now tacking on a little extra levy on unhealthy food and beverages to slim the waistlines of Americans and try to expand skinny state budgets during economic strains.

We first mentioned the obesity tax in our February post, "Sugary Beverages May Carry 'Obesity Tax'", which told about a 15% tax being worked out for the state of New York and then again in May when it was mentioned that U.S. Senate was drafting a solution to increasing healthcare costs which included a nationwide "fat tax."

Across the nation backers of the "obesity tax" suggest that it could help offset the estimated $147 billion cost of treating this health epidemic, while critics argue that the route a healthy nation is education, exercise and balanced diets.

Any way you look at it, our nation needs to make better choices when it comes to food and drink. Every week more than 4 million people choose 5-Hour Energy shots instead the sugar-packed alternatives. With zero sugar and only 4 calories, 5-Hour gives you the energy you need void of fillers and void of the "obesity tax."

Back in April of this year the post “Study Confirms that Caffeine Can Ease the Pain of Your Workout” looked at the results of a University of Illinois test that clearly suggested a benefit between caffeine and working out.

But what we didn’t emphasize enough was the importance of choosing a caffeine source that wouldn’t hinder the results of your workout with excess sugar and calories, large amounts of carbonated liquid, and all the extras that are counterproductive towards your fitness goals.


Body weight is all about the amount of calories we take in minus that which we burn. So when you compare burning off the four calories in a 5-Hour Energy shot to the 100 or 200 in the canned option, it’s clearly going to take more time and effort to use up the competitors beverage.

You’ve heard the saying “time is money.” With the sugar energy drinks out there you’re throwing away time, money, fitness achievements and more. With 5-Hour Energy you’re just getting a better boost for your workout, or after your workout and saving time that can be used outside of the gym.

A new video is up over at the 5-Hour Energy YouTube page.  5-Hour Energy isn't right for everyone, and that's ok.  People are choosing 5-Hour Energy shots over 4 million times a week, so we must be working for some.  Get the facts and decide for yourself if 5-Hour Energy is right for you.

Check out the new video and get the right information.  Figure out what works for you.
