INGREDIENTS TO LOOK FOR IN A PRE-WORKOUT DRINK

It can be hard to get motivated to work out. We have all said this before… “I just don’t feel like it.” That’s where a Pre-Workout Drink can help, but finding the right one is important. The biggest question is the Ingredients to Look For in a Pre-Workout Drink.
Knowing the Ingredients to Look for in a Pre-Workout Drink will help you pick a pre-workout supplement correctly formulated to get you up and running, both literally and figuratively. You want just the right amount of lift to enhance performance and delay muscle fatigue, but not crash an hour after your workout.
Member Confession
Pre-Workout Drinks are intended for use within 30 minutes prior to exercise. The top Pre-Workout Drink, Energize, was designed with that "time science" and the best ingredients at its core. The three natural ingredients of this superior supplement are low dose caffeine, beta-alanine, and quercetin.

INGREDIENTS TO LOOK FOR IN A PRE-WORKOUT DRINK

Definitely look for Caffeine on the list for ingredients in a pre-workout drink, but not just any caffeine at any dose. To enhance performance with improved reaction time, mental acuity, and focus, the caffeine has to be from natural, low dose sources. Energize uses a low dose of caffeine from green tea, which has been shown to enhance performance without the side effects of increased heart rate, gastrointestinal distress, insomnia, and jittery or anxious feelings.
Research has shown that low or very low caffeine doses can improve performance without undesirable side effects. Dr. Nima Alamdari Ph.D. and the Beachbody Director of Scientific Affairs, states that performance without unwanted side effects is one of the driving forces behind the Beachbody Performance line and it’s Energize Pre-Workout Drink.
The second ingredient from the list of Ingredients to look for in a Pre-Workout Drink is Beta Alanine. Beta Alanine is an amino acid that combines with another amino acid called Histidine to create a substance called Carnosine. This combination buffers against acid level build up in the muscle. Carnosine is found in meat, but you would need to eat huge amounts of beef to get enough to improve exercise performance. Consuming Beta Alanine over time, may increase muscle carnosine levels, which in turn can increase body’s lactic acid buffering capacity. When this happens it allows an increased period of exercise and greater high intensity exercise sustainability, which in turn can mean greater results.

The last ingredient is on the must list of ingredients to look for in a pre-workout drink is Quercetin. Quercetin in its purest form is a bright yellow color supplement and a potent phytonutrient that has shown to improve performance and decrease exercise-induced inflammation.  Again through human clinical trials Dr. Alamdari has found that this nutrient can also help reduce the effects of delayed onset muscle soreness [DOMS], and speed muscle strength recovery. In this study he also found that Quercetin showed in improvement of the VO2max (the maximum amount of oxygen one can use during aerobic exercise) over the placebo group.
When shopping for a pre-workout drink,  or any other supplements to help give you an edge on your results, you need to look at the entire Performance line. Energize and the other products in the Performance line are NSF Certified. This means its label claims of product contents have been verified and it has been screened for the major stimulants, narcotics, steroids, diuretics, and beta-2 agonists which are banned by most major athletic organizations. What does this mean for you? It means these products are safe, legal, and very clean.

Knowing the Ingredients to Look for in a Pre-Workout supplement, and all of your other supplements, gives you the best chance for greatest results from your workouts.
