Energy Fluff


A client asked me the other day which energy drinks I like/advocate. Answer: NONE


Best ways to improve energy are as follows:


  • Adequate (quality AND quantity: 7-9 hours) sleep every night

  • Proper nutrition

  • Regular exercise

So simple yet so true. Stop fooling around with all the artificial stimulants (caffeine-laden drinks) and focus on quality rest and nutrition. Personally, I've found "energy" drinks cause my heart to race and for me to get the shakes. It's an awful feeling. Again, stick with getting enough sleep and eating right to fuel your workouts.
