Life is busy. Sometimes we can't workout in the morning or early afternoon because of work, school or life in general. The solution? Exercising after everything, in the evening, when everything is finished except moving some weight around to maintain your health, strength or simply to decompress after a long day. You don't want to be jacked up on caffeine because you have to do it all over again tomorrow, so you're looking for something that can give you a much needed boost of energy after a long and draining day... we have supplements that can help you not only have energy, but feel ready to attack a full workout even after that jam-packed day.
Let's go over a few:
HYDRATE: "You're not tired, you're dehydrated." You may have heard this before and it's true:
Blood Volume Reduction: Dehydration leads to a decrease in blood volume. This means your heart has to work harder to pump oxygen and nutrients through the bloodstream to your organs and muscles, which can make you feel tired and sluggish.
Energy Production: Water is essential for the proper functioning of cells, including those involved in energy production. Dehydration can impair cellular function, affecting how efficiently your body produces energy.
Muscle Function: Electrolyte imbalance due to dehydration can lead to muscle weakness and cramping. Muscles need adequate hydration and electrolytes (like potassium and sodium) to function properly. When they are lacking, you may feel fatigued and have reduced physical performance.
Brain Function: Dehydration can also affect brain function. Even mild dehydration can impair cognitive performance, concentration, and mood, all of which can contribute to feeling tired and less alert.
Mood: Dehydration can impact mood and overall well-being, potentially leading to feelings of irritability and lethargy.
Hydrate has a unique-blend of sodium, magnesium and potassium that will give you the energy boost you need by fighting off dehydration and the best part is: 1 gram of sugar and no caffeine so your bedtime stays intact.
BETA-ALANINE: Want that ITCH to workout after a long day at work? Beta alanine is your answer:
Beta-alanine is made for anyone who wants some extra motivation in the gym or desires to fight lactic acid build-up in their training. Endurance athletes swear by this product for its endurance-enhancing benefits and it's hard to disagree when it's the Crossfit GOAT: Rich Froning. No caffeine, but will get you amped for a workout no matter the time of the day. Take Beta-alanine with Enduro, our non-caffeinated energy product, for maximum fuel before a workout after a long tiresome day!
ENDURO: No caffeine? No problem. Enduro has been a staple to many customers over the years who either don't enjoy caffeine or simply want a boost of energy without dealing with the restlessness that can come with caffeine if taken too close to bedtime. Enduro is your solution if you're getting off work and wanting to have full energy for a workout. Pair with beta-alanine of the ultimate non-caffeinated punch!
SLUMBER: Will this help your evening workouts? Yes; however, in a slightly different way. Your heart rate needs to lower for you to get to bed so you can perform to your highest abilities not only at work the next day, but again at the gym if you're wanting to be consistent as we all should be: Introducing Slumber. Get relaxed and get to bed on time with Slumber after getting your heart rate high at the gym. Sip on Slumber 30 monies before bed and say "Hello" to a goodnights rest and "Goodbye" to sleep deprivation affecting your daily routine.
Implement these 4 supplements into your routine if you enjoy working out in the evening and you'll notice the intensity of your workouts being elevated!
