Which Pre-Workout Supplement Ingredients Work Best?

-

 

Pre-workouts are a great way to give yourself the boost you need before your workout. Some people use them as part of their regular diet, while others take them only during pre-workout sessions and still more utilize this product type in combination with food sources like protein shakes or bars for extra energy!

Pre-workouts contain varying ingredients depending on what brand/flavour they’re marketed towards – but most will include things such Beta-Alanine (a compound often found amongst athletes), Caffeine Anhydrous.

The early days of N.O Xplode and Jack3d saw the pre-workout market boom, with over 1 thousand different supplements now available to buy online today – but are they all worth it? The answer depends on what ingredients you find within these drinks: Caffeine prolongs exercise duration; leucine promotes muscle growth (and repair). In this article, we’ll look at some research behind three popularly purchased items found in the most powerful ones available today–Caffeine+ EAAs.

Caffeine is the most popular pre-workout ingredient; it’s currently found in 88% of pre-workouts! Unlike most supplement ingredients, research on caffeine has been plentiful and clear. Caffeinated drinks can increase performance for several activities including running or cycling among others by improving endurance athletes’ ability to work longer periods without fatigue.

Verdict on Caffeine: The evidence is abundant that caffeine improves performance in many activities.

Beta-Alanine is the second most popular ingredient; it’s found in 76% of pre-workouts. A review of 19 studies found that this amino acid could improve power output, decrease fatigue and lower perceived exhaustion or even enhance exercise performance when taken before a workout!

Verdict on Beta-Alanine: The evidence on beta-alanine shows that this ingredient is also valuable in improving performance in many activities.

Tyrosine is a common ingredient found in many pre-workouts. It can’t seem to break any records for performance-enhancing, but some people still prefer the taste of this amino acid over others!

A study looked at how much tyrosine improved endurance activities8; it didn’t make anyone faster or stronger than they were before taking these supplements.

Verdict on Tyrosine: Unlike caffeine and beta-alanine, there is not much research on tyrosine’s role in exercise. The conclusions of the four studies highlighted here are mixed but point to tyrosine being ineffective.

There is a good reason that caffeine and beta-alanine are the most popular ingredients found in pre-workout supplements. There’s plenty of research on both, which overwhelmingly shows them to improve workout performance; however, there isn’t as much for tyrosine (a common amino acid). Caffeine probably won’t help you get better results from your workouts but it does have some side effects such as increased heart rate or blood pressure according to recent studies while researchers haven’t been able yet to link any health risks connected with using these types of high doses over long periods.
