Why use a pre-workout?

Pre-workout supplements are a common choice used among individuals who want to get an extra boost for their workout, or even just the motivation to get up and go do their workout in the first place. The goal of preworkouts are to give you more energy, better focus, and more endurance during your workouts. Most of this is accomplished using a formula that typically contains caffeine, creatine, amino acids, L-arginine, and occasionally carbohydrates. This adds up to increased bloodflow to your muscles, which means better performance (and better pumps!) There’s a reason why I love PREWoD so much! Our preworkout of choice, PREWoD, was created using a matrix of ingredients to work harmoniously, to bring about improved energy, unsurpassed mental focus, as well as more power and endurance. What’s also great is that you can choose from multiple flavours, including grape rush, blue freeze, and electric apple. Keep in mind that, preworkouts are supplements, and just like anything else, you need to be smart about them. They are powerful and potent (some more than others), and you should start taking them by gauging your tolerance first. You’ll often find disclaimers for this sort of thing on the labels. If not,…

When to take a day off

Just as there are some individuals who need all the help they can get to raise their motivation level up enough to not miss their workout, there are some who need to exercise (no pun intended) just as much discipline to take the day off from the gym. For some workout-aholics, the idea of taking a rest day just doesn’t sit well with them. They might feel they wasted the day by not working out, or maybe are getting smaller since they didn’t get their pump for the day. We can even admit that we’ve been (and still are) that person. It wasn’t too long ago that we implemented a rest day for the first time in well over a month. "Use your head! Learn the signs that you need to take a rest". However, you really shouldn’t discount how beneficial giving yourself a good 24 hours off can be. In fact, having a little break from the gym can be just what you need to go back and hit it even harder! Don’t forget that you only recover from your workouts while you’re at rest. And while getting enough sleep is certainly the biggest player in that process, sometimes…

How to integrate positive changes into your lifestyle It’s getting to be that time of year again, and you know what that means. In less than a month, New Years will be here, and that means people are going to create resolutions as a means to better themselves. The only caveat there is, about 92% of people end up abandoning them. Everyone goes into these endeavours with good intentions. But they just never seem sustainable, and that’s a shame. Here at marcfitt.com, the only thing we love more than people undertaking self-improvement is watching people succeed at self-improvement! The first thing you need to do when deciding on integrating a positive change into your lifestyle is choose one thing — just one. A lot of times, people will choose a laundry list of resolutions and it becomes overwhelming, usually resulting in them abandoning it altogether. By choosing a single resolution, it becomes much more likely that you’ll stick to it. It’ll be easier to focus on and you won’t have the urge to ditch the notion. There are also a ton of smartphone apps that are readily available to help you decide and stick to changes that you want to…
