Beachbody Performance Nutritional Information
Beachbody Performance Creatine
Beachbody Performance Energize
As much as I would love to tell you all about the Performance line I admittidly have only tried and use 2 of the 5 products. I do plan on trying the remaining 3 products but for now I can only honestly tell you about 2 of them. These products were formulated by Harvard scientists and are NSF sport certified. On top of all that the line (Energize, Recover and Recharge) is officially the Sports Nutritional Supplment of the IRONMAN North American series. Click here to read the full article.
RECOVER
The second product that I use is called Recover. This product is a protein based product that is meant to be used soon after your workout. Before Beachbody I used quite a few different types of proteins. I realized the benefits they had and got informed from some of the best personal trainers I knew. They informed me what I should be looking for in protein drinks and of course they gave me their recommendations. It was a 'no brainer' for me to try the Recover formulation since I was already a protein shake junkie. This protein is by far the best that I have ever had. I know because I put it to the test myself and my muscles screamed at me when I wasn't taking the Recover after my workouts. Of course, it doesn't take away all of the soreness after a workout but it does a pretty damn good job!
ENERGIZE
The first product that I use is called Energize. This product is meant to be used before your workout to give you the extra boost you need (especially for those early morning workouts. It can be tough to roll out of my warm comfy bed but I do prefer a morning workout to an evening workout session). I actually use Energize for another reason though. I have been known to fall asleep when I drive long distances (scary, I know!) so I tried it one morning as an 'energy drink' because that's what my boyfriend uses instead of energy drinks. The ingredients in the energy drinks are not always at the top of my 'things to consume' list so I was pretty happy that he was able to find a healthier substitute. I remember taking it with me in the car and seriously thinking that it wouldn't work for me but by the time I got to my destination (2.5 hrs away) I was in tears that it did work! I didn't even feel like falling asleep at the wheel. I tested it out a few more times (just to be sure) and each time I didn't have the desire to fall asleep at the wheel. I have been using it ever since when I need to drive long distances (which is once a week with my current work schedule) and have never had the problem of wanting to fall asleep at the wheel. Potentially, a life saver!
RECOVER Post-Workout Formula
When you’re too sore from your workouts, it’s much harder to be consistent with your program. Recover takes advantage of the critical post-workout window to help combat exercise-induced muscle soreness, speed muscle recovery, support muscle growth, and improve strength recovery.
RECOVER is formulated with key ingredients to help:
• Speed muscle recovery
• Combat exercise-induced muscle soreness
• Reduce muscle breakdown
• Promote lean-muscle growth
• Improve adaptation to exercise
• Improve muscle strength recovery
• Support muscle glycogen recovery
KEY INGREDIENT(S) BENEFITS:
* Pomegranate extract
This powerful ellagitannin-rich extract is scientifically shown to promote faster muscle recovery while helping to manage exercise-induced muscle soreness. It’s a recovery-enhancing ingredient that helps muscle strength recovery, especially after intense workouts.
* 20 grams of time-released protein
Fast-, intermediate-, and slow-release proteins ensure a sustained supply of nutrients to improve muscle recovery and promote muscle growth.
* Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs)
An ideal 2:1:1 ratio of leucine, isoleucine, and valine, branched-chain amino acids that are unique for their ability to help promote muscle synthesis and support rebuilding.
HOW TO USE RECOVER POST-WORKOUT FORMULA
Simply mix with water according to the label instructions, and drink within 30 minutes after exercise.
ENERGIZE Pre-Workout Formula
Struggling with low energy, no motivation, or lack of focus? Take Energize before workouts for more energy and endurance.
ENERGIZE is formulated with key ingredients to help:
• Boost energy and endurance
• Improve exercise performance
• Sharpen focus and reaction time
• Increase muscle power output
• Delay exercise-induced muscle fatigue
KEY INGREDIENTS: BENEFITS:
Beta-alanine
An amino acid that helps buffer lactic acid buildup to improve performance and delay exercise-induced muscle fatigue.
Low-dose caffeine (from green tea)
Low-dose caffeine has been shown to be ergogenic, which means it enhances performance, improves reaction time and focus, and reduces exercise-induced fatigue. Studies show that it can give you both a mental and physical boost.
Quercetin
A plant-based nutrient and powerful performance enhancer, shown to improve endurance and delay exercise-induced muscle fatigue.
HOW TO USE ENERGIZE PRE-WORKOUT FORMULA
Simply mix with water according to the label instructions, and drink within 30 minutes before you begin exercising.
Important notes about ENERGIZE:
• The vibrant yellow color of Energize comes naturally from quercetin, a phytonutrient found in many fruits and vegetables. A strong yellow color indicates higher levels and higher purity. This color is natural; there’s nothing artificial about it!
• Energize contains beta-alanine, which can create a mild tingling or itching sensation on the skin for some people. This response is perfectly normal and is not cause for alarm. Most people don’t notice it once they start working out, and with continued use the sensation gradually subsides.
