  • Let's talk about pre-workout supplements. As an athlete, I know the appeal of taking caffeine before a workout - it helps you feel more alert, focused, and capable of pushing yourself harder. However, the truth is that in the long run, pre-workout supplements can actually do more harm than good. Studies have shown that excessive caffeine intake can lead to decreased performance, reduced muscle strength, and even irregular heart rhythms. Scary, right? Have you had any experiences with pre-workout supplements? How much caffeine do you consume daily? Share your thoughts in the comments below - let's start a conversation about healthy and sustainable ways to fuel our workouts!" #preworkout #caffeine #fitness #workoutfuel #healthylifestyle

    With normal use, the caffeine in a Pre Workout will not cause palpitations or heart rhythm disturbances. This can occur when athletes take a dose that is much too high or have underlying heart problems. That is why you should always use a Pre Workout with common sense. If you have an allergy to something, go to your doctor first or look carefully at the label.

      Pre workout for whatever you want to call it is a drug. A stimulant to be clearer. A mix of stimulants to be even more clear. People are going to want more and more to chase the high. Until they can't get it and move on to steroids. Basically a gateway drug for the gym

    With normal use (i.e 1 serving per workout) you will be %100 fine. Just don't go overboard, and if the caffeine doesn't hit the same after a while, take a break from it for a bit, and don't take more than the recommended serving.

    There is truth to what she said, caffeine is obviously bad for you (the unnatural amount in these drinks and supplements) it can cause people including myself, to have panic attacks, and people who are not affected like that, will slowly build up a tolerance and end up consuming more than they should, if you take the recommended amount and take weeks with no caffeine, it is completely normal, and as of “long term effects” there is nothing that you can eat or drink that DOESN’T have long term effects.

    Use 3-5 times per week. Weigh 69.5kg-72kg. Squat 159kg, deadlift 159kg, bench 103-113 (depending on level of bulk). When used in moderation, is no more dangerous than strong coffee. Key is to use as early in the day as possible (60-90 minutes after waking but ideally before noon and never in the evening/night.

    Running on the treadmill or jumping for 10 secounds, doesn't require caffine...
    Deadlifts 400kgs
    Benching 200kgs
    Squating 300kgs require caffine...
    Soo unless you lift these, well you're a women soo let's just say 100kg bench, if u don't lift this then u have no right to tell us what to do unless there genuine scientific proof..
    Like I could just say that " Lifting weights can increase your fat and make u go blind", I mean it's semi true cuz if your bulking then your gaining fat and if u don't do lifting right, u could go blind, that doesn't mean people should just stop lifting

    I don’t drink coffee and I use a pre workout called Ibiza Juice that has 250mg in one scoop. I don’t exceed that dosage and I take pre-workout twice a week. Every time I finish a tub of pre-workout I don’t take it for at least three to six weeks am I safe or should I just stop period? I’m happy to stop once I finish this tub, I’ve never taken pre workout before and I’ve always had good numbers in the gym before it too.
