Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 11(1), 40.If you’re engaged in sports, supplements (like pre-workouts) may be super helpful. They might increase the amount of energy you have and the effectiveness of the exercise. We’ve tried dozens of pre-workouts to land on this list of the best pre-workout supplements on the market for almost any athlete, whether you love or hate caffeine, want to improve your run time, or just get a better pump. One big hitter in this formula is five grams of citrulline malate which promotes nitric oxide production for improved endurance and better pumps. Having more blood flowing to your muscles may also aid in recovery and delay fatigue by buffering local lactic acid buildup more efficiently. Also, a monstrous dose of 3,200 mg of beta-alanine might further enhance your lactic acid threshold and delay fatigue. Combine these, and you can workout harder for longer to achieve more gains.

Despite the high caffeine content (388mg per serving), our testers didn’t feel too jittery while taking the product. “I feel like I have a constant amount of energy — not hyper, no spikes, no lows. Not tingly at all.” Caffeine – One of the most popular stimulants on the planet, Caffeine really doesn’t need much of an introduction. You’ll find it as one of the main ingredients in most of the top pre workout supplements, although there are also stimulant-free options if you’re not keen on upping your Caffeine intake. We all know that Caffeine is a powerful stimulant, so it’s important to keep an eye on your total intake from all sources. Remember, you’d expect to find around 100mg of Caffeine in a regular cup of coffee.
