Pre-Workout

A pre-workout is a specially formulated powder mix designed t o optimise your performance during training and improve your strength. These energising products contain stimulants (e.g. caffeine), B vitamins and amino acids (creatine, taurine, arginine, citrulline, etc.) and thus provide extra energy and alertness, reduce fatigue, improve physical performance in successive series of short, high-intensity efforts.

Pre-Workout is a high-quality drink that contains numerous ingredients (such as creatine, arginine, taurine, citrulline, caffeine, vitamins B6 and B12) that help you start your workout full of energy and optimise your performance during training.

Key active ingredients:

• Vitamin B6 and B12 contribute to normal energy-generating metabolism and to the reduction of fatigue and tiredness.
• Caffeine is a natural substance, a stimulant, found in leaves, seeds, beans and fruits of a number of plants. Caffeine intake improves focus, concentration and alertness, shortens reaction time and reduces feelings of fatigue and pain. The advantage of lower doses is that use is not associated with the known side effects of caffeine such as palpitations, disruption of fine motor skills, anxiety, trembling and shaking, restlessness, nervousness, dizziness and poor/impossible sleep.
• Creatine is a naturally occurring substance made mainly in the liver. Creatine increases physical performance in consecutive series of short, high-intensity exercises. It has been shown that muscle creatine can be increased about 20% in both the untrained and well-trained by chronic creatine supplementation. Thus, by increasing the supply of phosphocreatine in the muscle, the muscle will have more fast fuel available which will improve performance during short high-intensity efforts. When combined with strength training, creatine results in an increase in muscle strength and muscle mass.
• Arginine is a semi-essential amino acid. Arginine has many different functions in our body. It is a substrate for nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and can promote the formation of the vasodilator nitric oxide or NO. When blood vessels are wider, there is a better blood and therefore oxygen supply to active muscles.
• L-citrulline is a body's own amino acid. Like arginine, citrulline also increases nitric oxide levels, which can provide improved blood flow and oxygenation.
• L-taurine is an amino acid naturally present in our bodies, as well as in meat, fish and dairy products. It is involved in numerous functions in the body including energy metabolism.
