Pre-workouts, energy drinks, pumps

Pre-workouts, energy drinks and preparations for pampas are several types of sports nutrition, conditionally combined into one group: they are united by the method (time) of administration and general purpose. They are used immediately before training or shortly before it, and their purpose is to maximize the productivity of the training process. Unlike recovery supplements (like protein, gainer, amino acids, etc.) that work during the rest period, pre-workouts and energy drinks promote the best return on training, increasing strength, endurance, mental focus and reducing rest time between sets.

Types of Pre-Workout Supplements

The main and most famous type is pre-workout complexes. They increase endurance (aerobic and anaerobic) and help to carry out high-intensity training. It is most often based on stimulants of the nervous system and substances that accelerate blood circulation and give a pumping effect. As part of modern pre-workouts, you can see caffeine, taurine, creatine, BCAA , guarana. Some manufacturers use the most powerful mixture of ECA (ephedrine + caffeine + aspirin). High-quality pre-workouts have a rich composition, and the number of ingredients can reach up to 20. Some contain fat-burning substances.

Energy drinks increase efficiency and, as the name implies, give a feeling of energy: you just don’t want to stand and rest between sets for a long time. The main active ingredient is usually thermogenic (eg caffeine, guarana, geranamine), often supplemented with vitamins and minerals. Energy complexes can also be used during the period of fat burning.

Isotonic drinks maintain an optimal water-salt balance in the body during exercise. Especially popular among athletes involved in the pumping mode: when the goal is to maximize the muscle directly during training.

Nitrogen donors - the best known is arginine, often combined with creatine, fast carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. A pronounced effect is pumping: the muscles seem to “flood”, the volume and venousness increase.
