Pre-Workout Supplements Frequently Asked Questions FAQ's:

Q: Does Caffeine increase my mental alertness?

A: it can boost alertness and promote mental clarity. In fact, recent research shows that caffeine increases your focus and reaction time. 

Caffeine has been shown to improve cognitive function when consumed in moderate amounts. In one study, research participants who consumed caffeine scored significantly higher on short-term memory tests than those who didn't.

Even if you aren't taking a test, it can help your brain focus on its current task. It's like being able to multi-task—you can be actively thinking about work while also focusing on an unrelated task like driving or talking with coworkers.

It may sound counter-intuitive but it comes down to attention span—caffeine helps you focus on what's important without getting distracted by other stimuli around you.

Q: Can caffeine help me lift heavier weights and create more power?

A: Studies have also concluded that taking caffeine before exercise significantly increases resistance training capacity. It also increases skeletal muscle blood flow.

Muscle contraction requires energy to function, which comes from ATP. The only way to increase ATP levels in muscle cells is by breaking down glycogen stores and converting them into glucose for cellular respiration.

By allowing more oxygen into your muscle cells, caffeine helps deliver nutrients to keep them working longer, effectively boosting performance during workouts.

Essentially, you'll be able to workout longer and get better results from your efforts over time.

Plus, if you use caffeine before an aerobic activity like running or swimming—or even for strength training—you should notice improved muscular endurance as well.
