Nutrition for high intensity training

Anaerobic training is so intense that it causes the formation of lactate . It is used by athletes to promote strength, speed and to build muscle mass. Muscular energy systems trained through anaerobic exercise develop differently compared to aerobic exercise , resulting in greater performance in short-duration, high-intensity activities lasting from mere seconds to approximately 2 minutes. [1] Any activity lasting longer than two minutes has a large aerobic metabolic component. (source: wikipedia:))

Qualitative training (intervals, strength, speed) approx. 1 - 1.5 hours

Myoblox Loco Pre-Workout

If you need a "kick" before a heavy intense workout. A mix of stimulants, vitamins that reduce oxidative stress, plus other substances that increase blood flow and possibly affect the function of neurotransmitters. You will have more energy, you will be more focused and it will allow you to be more explosive.

Skratch Labs Ionic Drink

Here, the ambient temperature and the duration of the activity matter. If you are at 20°C or more (spring, summer, indoor) and you are struggling for more than an hour, you will probably need to supplement with ions.

But if you don't sweat a lot and train for about an hour, water should be enough for you.

After performance

Recovery drink protein + carbohydrates

After training, the body needs enough building materials to repair and build muscle fibers - i.e. protein. And at the same time, it needs to replenish glycogen reserves quickly, that's why Vitargo, or carbohydrates.

Amino Synergy

Complex amino acids (BCAA + EAA). It will protect the muscles and provide them with nutrition even without the use of carbohydrates. The product Amino Synergy also contains natural caffeine from green coffee beans. It wakes up, but does not kick!

Some people are comfortable adding amino acids directly to the ion drink and drinking this drink mix during exercise, which is of course also an option.

It is not necessary if you have a varied diet including protein during the day. If you had cake for breakfast, pizza for lunch and a banana, you'd better have an amino mix.
