If you follow me you may recognize my early morning Rise, GIZE & Exercise videos - this is what it’s all about. I mean how else do you think I can wake up before 5 and start my day with a dance party?! Now let’s get into the deets:
Is it weird this pic makes me sad? I HOPE someone straight up Casino’d all this energize ;)
What is Energize? FAQs
Energize is Beachbody’s pre-workout formula, but honestly, it’s perfect for anytime you need a little pick-me-up for your energy throughout the day. I know I’ve used it on many occasions when I wasn’t working out! And I usually have it early afternoon paired with a TON of ice and extra water for a lil’ pick me up / get me to the kids bedtime kinda thing!
You could think of it as coffee without the jitters… but better.
What does it really do, and how does it work?
I’m not going to bore you with the specifics because honestly, it’s all very scientific and half of you probably with just skip over it anyway. But here are the basics:
Two of the key ingredients in Energize are beta-alanine and quercetin, both of which work in different ways help to delay exercise-induced muscle fatigue. So, whether you’re doing 100 pushups or holding a difficult yoga pose, your muscles won’t start to feel tired as quickly. The third key ingredient is where we get our energy: caffeine. The low-dose caffeine, which comes from green tea & coffee bean extract, improves focus, reaction time, and even gives you a mental boost!
How does Energize taste?
Energize currently comes in three flavors: Lemon, Fruit Punch, and Mixed Berry And. They. Are. Delicious.
Sometimes fruit-flavored drinks can taste too sweet and too artificial, but these are just right! I promise you’ll enjoy drinking this —I haven’t met anyone that’s tried Energize and NOT liked the taste! (And if you do hate it, there's always that money-back guarantee!)
Lemon tastes like, well, lemon, and the perfect combination of sweet and tart.
Fruit Punch has hints of pineapple, tangerine, orange, and passion fruit.
Mixed Berry combines strawberry, raspberry, and blueberry for a refreshing berry drink.
When should you drink Energize?
Beachbody recommends using this pre-workout drink 30 minutes before most workouts. Perfect amount of time to get your Triller on. See one of mine <-
But for more intense workouts, it can be consumed up to an hour before.
How do you make it?
Simply add 1 serving of Energize to a blender bottle with water, shake it up, and you’re good to go!
Servings sizes of Energize depend on your weight:
If you weigh <160 lbs: 1 scoop + 8oz water
If you weigh ≥160 lbs: 2 scoops + 16oz water
Why Energize over other pre-workout products?
As I mentioned before, Energize is clean, meaning it contains no artificial sweeteners, preservatives, colors, or flavors. Each ingredient was tested to establish the safe and effective levels to help maximize your results. And it has been scientifically shown to WORK.
And finally, why is it SO yellow?
“Are you sure there are no artificial colors?”
Seriously, when you prepare your first glass you will ask this question. The lemon flavor is SO yellow! I actually had to look this one up myself because I was too curious! If there are no artificial colors, why does it look like that?
So, apparently, quercetin (one of those key ingredients I mentioned above) is naturally an extremely bright yellow color. Totally fine to consume and 100% natural, but likes to stain anything it touches just ask #MrParker cuz I’m a tornado in the morning.
When you’re preparing your pre-workout drink, remember that and be very careful not to get any of the powder on your clothes!
