The back panel on every container tells you exactly how much to take, how often, and when.<\/p>\n<p>Plan to drink Energize about 30 minutes before you exercise so it\u2019s ready when you need it during your workout. Mix one level scoop with eight ounces of water, or start with half a packet if you\u2019re sensitive to caffeine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ingredients in\u00a0Energize\u00a0weren\u2019t selected at random or because they\u2019re trendy \u2014 they were included because they all offer\u00a0performance-enhancing benefits\u00a0that are\u00a0backed by science,\u201d explains Trevor Thieme, CSCS.<\/p>\n<h2>How Much Pre-Workout Can You Take in a Day?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>As a general rule, your caffeine consumption shouldn\u2019t exceed 400 mg per day. However, all pre-workout supplements are different, so it\u2019s best to follow the directions given by whatever you take.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to Beachbody Performance Energize, we advise taking no more than two scoops at one time, no more than twice daily, and keeping consumption at least four hours apart.<\/p>\n<h2>How Long Does Pre-Workout Take to Kick In?<\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019ll likely know when your pre-workout kicks in, but we recommend taking it 30 to 45 minutes before exercising.<\/p>\n<p>Beachbody Performance Energize contains beta-alanine, an amino acid that plays a role in muscle endurance during hard workouts.*<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s something else: \u201cFor some people, beta-alanine excites sensory neurons in the skin, causing a slight\u00a0tingling sensation that is harmless and temporary,\u201d says Thieme.<\/p>\n<h2>Should I Ever Adjust the Recommended Amount of Pre-Workout?<\/h2>\n<p>If you are particularly sensitive to caffeine, start by taking half a scoop of Beachbody Performance Energize. After you assess your tolerance, you can increase that to one scoop.<\/p>\n<p>If you do not enjoy the tingling feeling associated with beta-alanine, reduce your dosage.<\/p>\n<p>*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
