Pre-Workouts: What Works and Why

Pre-workout doesn’t have to be about hype. It’s about giving your body what it actually needs — at the right time — to train harder, longer, and more focused.

Optishake pre-workouts are built on real performance principles, not flashy labels. Here’s what matters and why.

Key Ingredients That Deliver

Let’s keep it simple. These two ingredients are proven, predictable, and powerful when used right:

Caffeine

• Enhances focus, alertness, and endurance
• Can increase power output and reduce perceived effort
• Timing matters: Take it 30–60 minutes before training for peak effect
• Smart use: Start low if you’re sensitive — more isn’t always better

Beta-Alanine

• Buffers lactic acid buildup to help you push harder during intense sessions
• Works best when taken consistently over time — not just as a one-off
• May cause a harmless tingling (paresthesia) — totally safe, and it fades

Avoid the Overload

Pre-workout should help — not hijack — your session. Here’s what to remember:

• More caffeine ≠ more performance — find your sweet spot and don’t overdo it
• Beta-alanine isn’t instant — think long-term support, not just quick boosts
• One scoop fits most — but adjust based on your size, experience, and training style
