Ready. Set. Honey!

Honey is like nature’s little energy booster before a workout! Packed with easily digestible carbs, it gives you a quick zap of energy without sending your blood sugar on a rollercoaster ride, thanks to its low glycemic index. Perfect for powering through those reps! Plus, it’s loaded with natural antioxidants that help your muscles bounce back and keep you feeling great while sweating it out! 

Key benefits of using honey as a pre-workout:

  • Quick Energy Boost: Honey's simple sugars, like fructose and glucose, are rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream, providing immediate energy for your workout.
  • Sustained Energy Release: In contrast to refined sugar, honey's distinct carbohydrate composition results in a more steady energy release, helping to avoid sudden energy drops during physical activity.
  • Improved Endurance: Research indicates that honey may improve endurance performance by supplying easily accessible carbohydrates for muscle energy.
  • Antioxidant Power: Honey contains various antioxidants that can help combat oxidative stress caused by intense exercise, promoting faster recovery.
  • Natural Option: Honey is a natural sweetener with no artificial additives, making it a healthier alternative to processed sugars in pre-workout routines.
  • Electrolyte Balance: Honey can contribute to maintaining electrolyte balance, especially when combined with a small amount of salt.

Pro Tips:

  • Typically, 1-2 tablespoons of honey 30-60 minutes before your workout is recommended. Pssst...Our honey sticks make for an excellent on-the-go snack that you can easily toss into your gym bag.
  • Hydration is Key! Always stay well-hydrated before, during, and after your workout, even when using honey as a pre-workout fuel.
