Gregory Chandler on Preworkout Supplements

Before weightlifting, I recommend some of the following supplements:









  • Caffeine-Caffeine provides energy for high-intensity training by enhancing the amount of fat you burn during workouts. Caffeine may be taken as a supplement or in a beverage such as coffee;




  • Nitric oxide boosters-This supplement works to dilate the blood vessels. The dilation works to speed oxygen, nutrients, and anabolic hormones throughout the body;




  • Whey protein-This type of protein is fast acting. Since whey protein acts fast, the protein is delivered to the muscles right before the weightlifting;




  • Branched chain amino acids(BCAAs)-This supplement contains the essential amino acids of leucine, isoleucine, and valine. BCAAs act to stimulate muscle protein synthesis, which leads to muscle growth;




  • Creatine-This supplement works to allow a weightlifter to perform extra repetitions on an exercise;




  • Beta-alanine-This supplement enhances the impact of creatine in the body.
