Pre & Intra-Workout Supplementation

Pre- and intra-workout supplementation can have a meaningful role in supporting energy, endurance, and increasing overall training performance.

Pre-workout supplements are typically formulated to help you start your session strong by boosting alertness, increasing blood flow, and enhancing mental focus. Ingredients like caffeine, beta-alanine, and citrulline may help improve power output, delay fatigue, and promote better muscle pumps, allowing you to get through an intensity workout. These benefits can be especially valuable on days when energy levels or motivation is. The pre-workout supplement that I would suggest and is very popular these days (with good flavors) is C4 SPORT PRE-WORKOUT POWDER.

Intra-workout supplementation works by sustaining your performance during longer sessions, it does this by providing hydration support, electrolytes, and sometimes carbohydrates or amino acids. These supplements help maintain fluid balance, reduce muscle breakdown, and support ongoing energy production. This is particularly helpful during longer workouts, high-volume training, or sessions performed in hot conditions to help performance and prevent cramping. One intra-workout supplement I use myself is BODY ARMOR ZERO SUGAR SPORTS DRINK, I prefer these to other sports drinks because one they have zero sugar and two they have more potassium than other sports drinks (most sports drinks will load their product with sodium as it is the cheaper electrolyte to add however most Americans get plenty of sodium and potassium is typically the electrolyte that most people don't get enough of) the fact that they have great flavors is just a bonus.

Together, pre- and intra-workout supplements create a complementary approach: one prepares your body and mind for peak performance, while the other helps you maintain that high level of effort throughout the session.
