The Best Pre-Workout Drinks Ranked By Us

Pre-workout is a dietary supplement commonly used to boost energy, focus, and performance before intense workouts. Typically taken 30-60 minutes prior to exercising, it helps increase endurance, enhance blood flow, and improve mental clarity—making it easier to push through tough training sessions.

How Does Pre-Workout Work?

Pre-workout formulas typically contain ingredients like caffeine, beta-alanine, and creatine, which work together to improve energy, focus, and overall performance. Caffeine stimulates alertness and energy, beta-alanine reduces muscle fatigue, and creatine supports muscle growth and strength.

KEY INGREDIENTS AND BENEFITS

  • Caffeine: Boosts alertness, energy, and stamina for better performance.
  • Creatine: Supports muscle recovery, strength, and helps you lift heavier.
  • Beta-Alanine: Reduces lactic acid buildup in muscles, delaying fatigue and soreness.
  • BCAAs: Improve muscle recovery and energy during workouts.
When Should You Take Pre-Workout?

For the best results, take pre-workout 30-60 minutes before your workout to allow your body to absorb the key ingredients. Avoid taking it too late, as it may interfere with sleep.

Side Effects to Watch For

While pre-workouts are generally safe, they can cause jitters, anxiety, or dehydration, especially if taken in excess. If you experience any discomfort, try reducing the dosage or choosing a lower-caffeine option.
