Boost Energy | Athletic Performance

Naturally, Boost Energy for Athletic Performance. Athletic Performance is one of our specialties. Paired with our Pre Workout, studies have shown that if you meticulously eat certain foods before your workout, game and/ or physical activity, you will create more energy naturally. Dr. Mercola’s team created the general outline of these steps based on athletic performance success.

Here are a few easy steps to create more energy naturally:

Two or three hours before your need for energy (game or workout) consume complex carbs, healthy fats, and a small amount of protein. This will allow you to sustain energy throughout the whole day.
1. Complex carbohydrates are typically found in beans, peas, sweet potatoes, brown rice and vegetables.
2. Healthy fat options are avocados, natural butter, coconut oil, eggs and Omega-3s.
Approximately 30-40 minutes before your need for energy (game or workout) consume a piece of fruit. The natural sugars will allow you to create more energy without a massive spike in energy leading to a hard crash. Note: Drinking the juice of the fruit is not the equivalent.
1. Fruits we recommend are dates, bananas, pineapple, apples, plums, pears, oranges, berries and more.

Post workout routine is just as important as your Pre Workout routine. Paired with the RADO Nutrition Post Workout, you need to consume amino acids from animal proteins. Our Beef Protein Shakes are a perfect option. For food options, consider animal’s proteins such as chicken, beef and eggs. You will want to incorporate some vegetables dense with carbohydrate as well. Consuming these products and food will allow your body to repair your muscles and regenerate your nitrogen.

Here are two of our favorite post workout shake recipes that should be consumed within the hour post workout for maximum benefit.
