An Uber-Simple Pre-Workout Nutrition Tip That Will Optimize Workout Performance

HYDRATE!

Before Training, Hydrate! It sounds so simple, but few do it properly. This is how you do it effectively.


WATER

Drink 1 Litre of water, 40-60 Minutes Before Training. Enhance it with Electrolytes & Creatine.


ELECTROYLTES

Forget about all the fancy Electrolyte Supplements, make your own:


1 LITRE OF WATER

650mg Potassium Chloride

530mg Pink Himalayan Sea Salt

230mg Sodim Bi-Carbonate

200mg Magnesium

3mg Boron


Or, if you don't want to be measuring out salts, here are two reputable pre packaged Electrolytes:



CREATINE

Creatine enhances exercise performance by rapidly producing energy for working muscles, including the heart & brain during strenuous activity. Unbeknownst to many, creatine has the capacity to reduce mental fatigue caused by demanding mental capacity or sleep deprivation.


Try using 5 grams


 

40 MINUTES BEFORE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

1 LITRE OF WATER

ELECTROLYTES + CREATINE

 

CAFFEINE

We've yet to meet someone who has experienced diminished athletic performance after consuming modest amounts of caffeine before exercise. Let's define modest:


50-150mg


 

20 MINUTES BEFORE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

Try Consuming 100mg Caffeine

Example: Small Cup Coffee or Double Bagged Green/Black or White Tea

 

MORE POWER TO YOU!
