Pre-workout is designed to boost energy, focus, and training intensity.
People take it to lift heavier, push harder, and feel more “switched on” in the gym.
But let’s be clear… it’s powerful stuff. Used well, it’s a performance tool. Used badly, it wrecks sleep, spikes anxiety, and masks poor habits.
It’s not for beginners. If your training, sleep, and nutrition aren’t consistent yet, pre-workout just turns the volume up on chaos. I’ve seen more than one person end up in a pickle from taking too much… shaking, nauseous, heart racing, workout abandoned.
How to get the MOST out of your pre-workout ⚡️
1️⃣ Timing beats dosage
Take it 20–30 mins before training. Earlier = wasted. Later = jitter city.
2️⃣ Don’t stack caffeine blindly
Coffee + pre + energy drink = anxiety, not gains.
3️⃣ Use it on purpose
Save it for hard sessions, leg days, or low-sleep days. Not every workout needs fireworks.
4️⃣ Hydrate first
Pre-workout doesn’t replace water. Dehydration kills pumps and performance.
5️⃣ Cycle it
Constant use blunts the effect. A week or two off brings the spark back.
6️⃣ Respect the cut-off ⏰
After 3pm, you’re borrowing energy from tonight’s sleep.
Pre-workout isn’t the engine.
It’s the turbo. 🚀
And f**k dry scooping you idiots
