It doesn’t matter whether you’re about to lift weights, play one-on-one pickup basketball, or throw the first pitch of the World Series — the time and devotion you put into your prep determines how you’ll perform when it’s game time. Any dedicated athlete or weightlifter will ensure a few things:

1. They’ve had plenty of rest.

2. They’ve established a game plan and know their assignments and responsibilities.

3. They’ve put emphasis on their recovery (which is something P4’s Recovery Push can help with).

4. They’ve trained consistently and with high intensity and focus.

A proper diet keeps your body running optimally, and the right sports supplements can help you gain an extra edge. For an energy kick pre-game or pre-workout, serious athletes look to P4’s Pregame Formula. It was engineered using high-quality ingredients such as beta-alanine, creatine, tyrosine, and arginine; and, most importantly, it has been given prestigious NSF Certified for Sport label because it’s free from all banned substances that appear on the World Anti-Doping Agency’s lengthy list of illegal substances. This also means the product has been label-claim-verified, which confirms that everything printed on the Pregame label was fact checked by the NSF.

Two of Pregame’s all-star ingredients are creatine and beta-alanine. A 2012 review of studies involving beta-alanine’s ability to enhance athletic performance concluded that athletes who supplemented with beta-alanine performed significantly better during high-intensity exercise than subjects who were given a placebo. Additionally, a 2008 study performed by The College of New Jersey found that college football players that used beta-alanine for 30 days were less fatigued after undergoing high training volume than those athletes in the placebo group.

Due to its popularity, creatine is one of the most widely studied sports supplements on the planet. And that’s because it’s so effective. One study from the University of Queensland in Australia found that competitive powerlifters that took creatine increased the number of reps they were able to complete using 85% of their one-rep max by an astounding 40 percent! The placebo group experienced no change. Looking over 16 studies, the researchers determined that the average increase would likely be 15 percent more than a placebo.

You may not be a competitive powerlifter, but we’re willing to bet your goal is to acquire more strength or size. Otherwise, why the heck are you logging the long hours in the gym?

Pregame Formula offers an incredible energy boost along with ingredients that’ll help you build muscle and perform at your highest levels. In other words, every serious athlete should start his or her game or workout with Pregame. Choose between two delicious flavors: Pregame Fruit Punch or Pregame Blue Raspberry.
