    Banana, bagel, coffee and tablespoon of honey. Focus mostly on hydration during pre-workout.

    Thanks Coach! ❀️ Chemix Pre/Intra Workout is #1 🦍

  6. @blaquaman1739 on February 25, 2025 at 7:35 pm

    Coffee and smoothie for me:-)

  7. @ironlung8331 on February 25, 2025 at 7:35 pm

    Maybe the best pre workout foods are the ones eaten by Kenyan’s, fruits, Mursik fermented milk and a lot of carbs called Ugali..

  8. @aaronkahn-bork1120 on February 25, 2025 at 7:35 pm

    Thanks for all the info! Might also be worth mentioning that BCAAs are only useful in conjunction with all of the other essential amino acids, and that if you’re consuming any kind of complete protein it includes BCAAs making the supplement pretty redundant.

    What do you think about Betaine?

    Thank you

    Just here to help since this women isn’t too knowledgeable on supplements. Not only is Deer Antler Velvet not dangerous, it doesn’t work- there is no research that shows it to be effective. Nearly all grey-area ingredients have been banned so don’t worry about taking something that will hurt you. Creatine is 5g a day, Beta Alanine is 3.2-6.4/day. They have 300g uptake limit to achieve saturation. There are dozens of great ingredients she left out. DMAA is gone. It’s not in the mainstream pres. Just don’t buy something off the deep web. It’s not that complicated.

    Anyone in the comments; I want to become a runner and start logging 5-7 miles daily. Would pre workout give that recovery and energy boost I need?

  13. @buellreaucracy on February 25, 2025 at 7:42 pm

    Preworkout definitely works some better than others though. Also not all have creatine.

  14. @jaafarawadallah514 on February 25, 2025 at 7:44 pm

    I used pre workout it’s a plant base protien powerd I don’t used it all the time I used real food

  15. @a_vitale007 on February 25, 2025 at 7:46 pm

    My opinion is high stim pre work outs are not good for running unless it’s a sprint day or reapeats. For distance or zone 2 work outs I found it pretty hard to control your heart rate. I have a good tolerance for caffiene & it’s still never a good idea unless I’m doing sprints. I’ve worked in the supplement industry & Pre’s are generally for lifting days or something that requires short bursts of energy. Anyone running & using high stim prework outs I bet if you ran with out it you’d notice your heart rate is more controlled & the runs less taxing!!! Just my exprience!

    Am I the only one that feels how overwhelmingly frigid this woman is due to her lack of physical assets?. Such a fucked comment but I just felt like saying it lol

  17. @nategregory1196 on February 25, 2025 at 7:50 pm

    I go banana on peanut butter toast and some beet juice! Go natty! πŸ™ŒπŸŒ

  18. @gcolello on February 25, 2025 at 7:53 pm

    Why is Deer Antler dangerous?

  19. @RealStrategyGaming on February 25, 2025 at 7:54 pm

    I want to try that too fit. But maybe just buying the beta Alanine pills is better? Since you can get in a store and not order online + thats basically the main ingredient anyway that you want. Good idea?? They only give you a few servings if you buy that stuff online and costs more, so beta alanine might be the best it cost 30 on GNC for 120 capsules, 1 serving is 3 capsules, so 40 servings per container, compared to the too fit that gives you the pre work-out formula of "20 servings" not sure if thats 60 pills? For 55 dollars. Well.. what ya think?

  20. @TheAmateurGuitarist on February 25, 2025 at 7:54 pm

    Good Stuff!
    By the way, probably a slip-up at 4:15: BCAA = Branched Chain Amino Acids, not Branded Chain Amino Acids.

  21. @justinthompson5631 on February 25, 2025 at 7:56 pm

    Don’t invest in the pre she recommends at the end. It’s trash. She is sponsored by them most likely.

  22. @Tropicalfrooploops on February 25, 2025 at 7:56 pm

    I think these pre workout supplements are a total wank, good nutrition, sleep and recovery get you where you need to be

  23. @denisholohan7163 on February 25, 2025 at 7:56 pm

    theres been a lot of recent studies on bcaa and if your eating enough protein then they don’t really don’t do anything. some sort of electrolyte tablet that you can put in your coffee would be great

  24. @ffpoke on February 25, 2025 at 7:57 pm

    I did ginger drink before a race and what an improvement.

  25. @NaeNaeEpicSwag on February 25, 2025 at 7:58 pm

    Thanks guys!
    Btw, I am 13 years old and have a 6:43 pr in the mile. Are there any tips you have to improve that for my 8th grade year?

  26. @theodoreboyer2275 on February 25, 2025 at 7:59 pm

    I just have coffee, a banana and a few goji berries.
    The one advantage I would definitely get from pre-made supplements (if I bought them) is that once I take it I know I’ll workout. I’m too cheap to take this stuff and then sit around.

    Pickle Juice?

  30. @expatadventureturkey9324 on February 25, 2025 at 8:02 pm

    A cup of coffee with Steal cut Oates w/a slice of banana. Best of luck with your training and races…..

  31. @billsemenoff on February 25, 2025 at 8:04 pm

    100-300 mg caffeine seems high to me. Very controversial Elizabeth! I like to keep it just under my addiction threshold.

  32. @ansarmalikful on February 25, 2025 at 8:05 pm

    branded chain amino acid …

    Awesome Video! Coach Elizabeth, What do of Vespa Energy Gel? " Made by Bee’s " ? Thank you!

  35. @northernninjarunner5506 on February 25, 2025 at 8:07 pm

    Hello Coach Elizabeth thanks for the info πŸ‘ Just discovered the little packed goodness of olives and the benefits. Have a great weekend see you at Park Run tomorrow?

  36. @jimduyck on February 25, 2025 at 8:08 pm

    I’ll stick with my trusty banana. πŸ˜‰

  37. @jasper2point0 on February 25, 2025 at 8:09 pm

    Thanks Coach Elizabeth, I don’t use pre workout supplements, but I have just started drinking Matcha green tea, I will see how that will help me out for that caffeine kick without coffee. Thanks again.

  38. @mcm4point2o on February 25, 2025 at 8:10 pm

    hammer nutrition makes a good pre workout called "fully charged" that optimizes nitrous oxide production during exercise

  39. @luispedrohurtarte5547 on February 25, 2025 at 8:10 pm

    Good stuff! Thx

  40. @EzoFitness on February 25, 2025 at 8:11 pm

    Amazing video!! Has given me some new ideas for some videos on my channel!πŸ’ͺ

  41. @Jeffhowell48 on February 25, 2025 at 8:14 pm

    Thank you for your video….Β  Trying to figure out what works for me is so tough, I am a Gastric Bypass (RNY) Runner.Β  My stomach is the size of an Egg, so trying to fuel is so challenging…

  42. @Diquetraysay on February 25, 2025 at 8:15 pm

    She clearly is reading a script she was handed very poorly researched video!

  43. @odyseusjarhead602 on February 25, 2025 at 8:16 pm

    I have recently read that many triathletes and long distance runners do not take in carbs during sessions of less than 3 hours during training, in order to increase their ability to use fat as fuel during races. Have you heard this, and if so, what is your opinion of that? Thanks for the great videos.

  44. @souravyadav8425 on February 25, 2025 at 8:16 pm

    Can we use pre workout in 5km race

  45. @DirtyTableCloth on February 25, 2025 at 8:16 pm

    I take creatine, BCAA’s, beta alanine, multivitamins, citruline malite, and fish oils daily! They help from what i’ve noticed, and have been a good way to kick my need for caffeine to stimulate and motive my workout!

  46. @peterv2599 on February 25, 2025 at 8:17 pm

    Recovery window isn’t real though…

  47. @jplay0426 on February 25, 2025 at 8:19 pm

    Awesome video! Question, Are electrolytes to drink before or after runs? Or both?
