Cordyceps, Reishi, King Trumpet, Shitake, Lion’s Mane, and Turkey Tail are the best adaptogenic mushrooms to support your training.

Clinically proven to improve oxygen utilization, reduce blood lactate levels and increase time to fatigue, adaptogenic mushrooms can improve your aerobic capacity, increase endurance, and leave you with sustained energy to power through your workouts. 

Carbohydrates often get a bad rap -- but did you know that carbohydrates are the body’s most preferred source of energy to increase metabolism and send energy to your muscles. 

Smart carbohydrates, such as Palatinose which is derived from beets, can provide your body with sustained energy without spiking your blood glucose levels. 

Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) are concentrated fats that deliver a much faster source of energy than most fats and have numerous health benefits. 

In addition to a sustained energy source without a crash and jitters, many athletes use MCTs to support mental clarity and sharpness. The key to MCTs being able to act as a sustained energy source is the fact that they require minimal steps to convert into caloric energy in the form of Ketones.

Ketones are one of the brain's two primary energy sources, and also a key source of ATP energy which your muscles use for fuel.

Typically used for culinary purposes, turmeric has been gaining popularity in the supplement industry. Known for its vibrant color, turmeric benefits also include boosting exercise performance and muscle recovery. 

Turmeric helps to support your joints and reduce inflammation that can be caused by high-intensity exercise. Packed with antioxidants, pre-workouts that contain turmeric help you get a head start on your recovery. 

Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, has also been shown to support cardiovascular systems, reduce muscle damage, increase antioxidant capacities, and improve exercise performance.

Natural pre-workout and natural energy supplements are made up of clean ingredients like Green Tea, Yerba Mate, and Ginseng, which are consumed to give you long-lasting energy without the crash and jitters that are typically contributed to artificial or stimulant-based pre-workouts. 

A natural pre-workout, such as ATH PRE, is known to take a different approach to the traditionally high stimulant-based pre-workouts that have saturated the market. 

Athletes and individuals alike that are looking for stimulant-free pre-workouts should look for a natural pre-workout that has clean caffeine, adaptogens, and high-quality carbohydrates. 

• Natural Caffeine - Look for Yerba Mate and Green Tea for clean and sustained energy. 
• Carbohydrates - Palatinose, a smart carbohydrate sourced from beets to provide fuel to your muscles. 
• Adaptogens - Cordyceps, Reishi, King Trumpet, Shitake, Lion’s Mane, and Turkey Tail are the best adaptogenic mushrooms to support VO2 Max Support and mental clarity. 
• Turmeric - Supports healthy joints and reduces inflammation to support a runner’s lifestyle and kickstart recovery.
