Energy & Endurance

Looking to boost your energy and endurance for your next workout? Look no further than our wide range of energy-enhancing supplements, such as electrolyte drinks, BCAAs, pre-workout, and energy drinks here at Holland & Barrett.

Our energy supplements are formulated to help you train harder for longer. Whether you’re looking for extra support to help you through your next gym workout or for an endurance boost on a long-distance run, cycle, or swim, we have you covered.

The best energy and endurance sports supplements offer you lasting energy with a dose of carbohydrates, so you can push yourself harder. Most vitamins for energy will contain a form of caffeine, well-known as an energy booster and a great choice before a workout. However, this might be an ingredient to look out for if you don’t want to or can’t consume caffeine, so always check the label.

Some energy supplements, like pre-workout, use a blend of ingredients such as caffeine, creatine, and BCAAs to create a powder that boosts your energy for a more focused, sustained workout - perfect if you’re heading to the gym for a strength-training session.

Generally, energy supplements are best taken before you start exercising, but some are great to take during your workout too, particularly for longer endurance sessions to prevent fatigue. Isotonic gels or electrolyte drinks are ideal for this as they offer a fast energy boost in the form of easily digestible carbohydrates that work to reduce fatigue.

While energy and endurance supplements can be really beneficial, it is important to remember that they should be used alongside a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. You should also check with your GP before taking them to make sure it is safe for you to do so.
