Description

On this episode of BPR, Derrick answers the age-old question:

⠀

Is pre-workout bad for you?

⠀

In order to answer that question, we need to know a few things:

⠀

1. What is pre-workout?
2. What are the primary ingredients of pre-workout?
3. What physiological responses do the ingredients induce?
4. Are those responses necessary to have a great workout?

⠀

Spoiler Alert: pre-workout is not inherently bad for you.

⠀

That said, there are some brands that are better than others. Here are our recommendations:

⠀

• 1st Phorm Project 1 or Megawatt
• Legion Pulse
• Optimum Nutrition Platinum Pre-workout
• Purchase the individual ingredients and take together (Caffeine, beta alanine, creatine)

⠀

In full transparency, we are affiliated with 1st Phorm, so if you’re interested in trying Megawatt or Project 1, click the links above.
