pre-workout
Before gym fuel
Pre-workout is a supplement taken before exercise, typically a powder mixed with water containing caffeine, amino acids, and other stimulants intended to boost energy and performance.
Also used as an adjective describing anything done before training: a pre-workout meal, pre-workout stretching.
I forgot to take my pre-workout and felt sluggish the whole session.
