Energy Kick

Products from the Pure Energy category are supplements that aim to give you more energy for your workouts or at other times of the day when you need an energy boost. Usually, these products contain one or more stimulants such as caffeine, synephrine, higenamine, various methylxanthines and others, which are often combined with other ingredients such as tyrosine or taurine that can enhance or prolong the effects of stimulants. In addition to chemically produced, isolated stimulants, plant extracts containing stimulants, such as guarana or extracts from green coffee beans, are also frequently found in such products, which release the stimulants they contain slowly during digestion and over a longer period of time. This makes it possible to achieve a longer-lasting stimulating effect without a collapse at the end of the effective period.

What are the most common applications for Pure Energy products?

Pure Energy products are most commonly used before workouts to boost exercise performance and improve focus and concentration, allowing for longer and more intense workouts. Typically, the stimulants contained in these products can also increase muscle contractility and strength, and some stimulants, such as caffeine, can even have a glycogen-saving effect by increasing the use of body fat to meet the body's energy needs. Other uses for products in this category include use at other times of the day to overcome fatigue and performance lows. Pure Energy products are also very popular during dieting, as they can counteract diet-induced lethargy and listlessness, and also often have both a thermogenic effect, which stimulates the metabolism, and an appetite-suppressing effect.

What are the possible reasons to choose Pure Energy products over stimulant-based pre-workout products?

Stimulant-based pre-workout products usually contain a whole cocktail of different stimulants, which may not necessarily be what you tolerate best or what would be optimal for you. In these cases, instead of using a stimulant-based pre-workout product, you can use the Pure Energy product of your choice in combination with a stimulant-free pre-workout product. Many users of ingredients often found in stimulant-based pre-workout products, such as beta-alanine and creatine, prefer to consume these ingredients at other times of the day, focusing on stimulants and other stimulating ingredients prior to training, as regular use is more important than immediate pre-workout use. Last but not least, Pure Energy products are also a good choice for all exercisers who simply want more energy for their workouts and are rather critical of other ingredients contained in stimulant-based pre-workout products. Even though many strength athletes and bodybuilders love a pump enhanced by nitric oxide production stimulants, there are other athletes who would rather do without an excessive pump that can, in the worst case scenario, even limit their range of motion.
