Pre-Workout Supplements for Athletes

Before you read this post, make sure you read the truth about supplements. As a strength coach, it is my job to know about supplements and the effects they can have on training. Personally, I am not a huge fan of most supplement companies. Many of these companies promise ridiculous claims and have no science behind any of their products.

Why Most Pre Workout Supplements SUCK

When it comes to pre-workout supplementation, I do not recommend NO Explode or any products similar to it. For one, they have way too many ingredients in them. Out of the 100 ingredients, maybe only a handful of them actually work. The rest are just fillers used to mask the horrible taste of l-leucine and other ingredients.

My second issue with most pre-workout supplements is that they do not tell you how many mg or grams of a certain ingredient you are getting. Instead, they will often say "Anabolic proprietary blend 41,542mg" and then go on to list all the ingredients within that blend without telling you how much of each ingredient you are getting.

What Pre-Workout Supplement Should you use?

Advocare Muscle Fuel-A powerful blend of 28 vitamins,minerals, botanicals and other energy-producing intermediates. For more information on Advocare Muscle Fuel, please watch the video below.



Why I Recommend Advocare Muscle Fuel
1. States exactly how much of every ingredient is present within each serving
2. It is endorsed for FREE by 100's of MLB, NFL and world class athletes including Drew Brees, Jason Witten, Brad Hawpe, Thomas Jones and Michael Redd to name a few.
3. It is used in the majority of NFL locker rooms.
4. Back by Informed Choice which test for over 200 banned substances.

Please note that I would never recommended a product that I haven't used myself. Also remember that supplements are supposed to be used in conjunction with your nutrition.
