When you think of pre workout what is the first thing that comes to mind? I bet you answered "caffiene," or "stimulants." While that answer surely isn't incorrect, I'm here to inform you that a well balanced pre-workout has much more to offer than that. In the post below we are going to talk about the four key benefits of pre-workout supplementation.
1.) THE PUMPThe pump is not something to underestimate. I mean even the great Arnold once said ,"It's as satisfying to me as uh cumming is." A pre-workout with the proper pump ingredients can make you feel bigger, increase blood flow, help with nutrient delivery, help with muscular endurance, and overall in theory it makes you grow faster. The bigger you are in the gym, the bigger you'll eventually be outside of it.
If you're looking for a superior pump we highly recommend supplementing with a non stimulant PUMP product. You can take these on their own, or you can stack them with your favorite regular pre-workout.
2.) ENDURANCE
The right pre-workout can also provide you with an added amount of physical endurance. What this translates to is more time in the gym until you hit a point of physical fatigue. You can feel stronger throughout your entire workout if you supplement properly. The types of ingredients that help the most with physical endurance are Betaine, Beta Alanine, and Creatine!
3.) FOCUS
Mental focus is often overlooked by most people. You can have all the energy in the world but still not be able to focus, and if that happens you might not get that mind/muscle connection that you're looking for. When you have better mental focus you're able to focus on the reps better. When you focus on the reps better not only can that lead to better strength gains, it can also pave a road to quicker muscle gains.
4.) ENERGY
Last, but certainly not least we do have ENERGY. Not everyone needs to be hopped up on stimulants before they train, but let's face it... most of us do. Wether it be a long day at work with the gym shortly after, or you're a 5 a.m. gym head, you probably need your stimulants! There are many different stimulants other than caffeine to look for in pre-workout. The difference between one with or without them could mean a hard crash later.
