You asked, we delivered. A pre-workout supplement has been the most requested addition to our product line, and now it’s a reality. And just as you’d expect from Thorne, this is not your average pre-workout supplement. Here’s what we want you to know about Thorne’s newest product.

What Pre-Workout Elite is

Pre-Workout Elite is formulated with a host of superstar ingredients to enable you to take your training to the next level. The ingredients and flavors in Thorne’s Pre-Workout Elite are naturally derived, providing you with a “clean” pre-workout like nothing else on the market. As the newest member of our NSF Certified for Sport® product lineup, Pre-Workout Elite is free from banned substances and other contaminants that are problematic for professional athletes. We formulated Pre-Workout Elite to give you a noticeable physical and mental boost, help extend your training time to optimize results, and support post-workout recovery and fatigue.*

What Pre-Workout Elite is not

Pre-Workout Elite is not your gym bro’s pre-workout. Pre-Workout Elite is not designed to amp up your heart rate, over-stimulate your mind, or make your skin tingle and burn. Hey, if you’re into that, we totally get it, no judgment here! But if you’re not, then Pre-Workout Elite is just the pre-workout you’ve been waiting for. With caffeine derived from plants, and less than you’ll find in a cup of coffee, Pre-Workout Elite relies on a boost in cellular energy production and mental focus to fuel your workout, so you won’t have a post-gym crash or a massive energy dip after Pre-Workout Elite is done working for you.*

What makes Pre-Workout Elite unique?

Well, a lot of things, actually! One takeaway is that everything Pre-Workout Elite does is rooted in science. We have clinical studies to back up the benefits of the ingredients (as if we would have it any other way), so you don’t have to do a homework assignment to know what the product will do for you.

Because everyone’s training is personalized, the formula contains carefully selected ingredients to support the mind and body so you can be on the top of your mental and physical game on or off the court or field.* We didn’t design Pre-Workout Elite to simply amp you up. As noted above, this formula doesn’t rely heavily on caffeine to deliver its benefits.

Last but not least, Pre-Workout Elite contains ingredients that work to optimize your training goals after your workout. Ingredients in Pre-Workout Elite provide support for workout recovery, minimizing post-workout fatigue, and assisting the body in tissue repair.* How many other pre-workouts on the market put in that kind of overtime?

Beyond the basics – a review of Pre-Workout Elite’s ingredients

Pre-Workout Elite contains a proprietary mushroom blend, plus five other unique ingredients to deliver its physical and cognitive benefits. Let’s review them individually and see why we included each one in the formula.

Peak ATP®

Peak ATP is a patented form of adenosine 5’-triphosphate disodium (ATP). As the fuel for energy production in the body, a sufficient level of ATP is essential for physical and mental energy, stamina, and optimal performance.* When we talk about cellular energy production, what we’re really talking about is ATP. ATP fuels your muscles so you can optimize the strength and power you put into your workouts.* Peak ATP also assists in improving blood flow to the muscles.* Not only is this important for ensuring you’re getting adequate tissue oxygenation during a workout, but also to support post-workout recovery and minimize soreness.*

PeakO2® Mushroom Blend

PeakO2 is a blend of six adaptogenic mushrooms that support the body’s ability to adapt to and overcome physical and mental stressors so you can perform at your best.* PeakO2 is a great complement to Peak ATP because it boosts the body’s natural production of ATP.* Studies on PeakO2 show an increase in maximum power and strength.* In addition, PeakO2 promotes the efficiency of a workout by extending time to exhaustion and promoting exercise capacity.* This helps you to do more, for longer.

Alpha-GPC (L-alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine)

By supporting the body’s production of the brain neurotransmitter acetylcholine, alpha-GPC helps optimize the “mental game” aspect of your performance.* Whether you find yourself struggling to get started, or you’re looking for an edge to push you through, Alpha-GPC has your back. Studies on Alpha-GPC demonstrate a support for focus and memory to help keep your eyes on the finish line.* As a boost to the physical benefits of Pre-Workout Elite, Alpha-GPC also promotes endurance to help you maintain your best work.* To round out the trio of its benefits, Alpha-GPC supports the body’s production of human growth hormone (HGH), which is essential to recovery and maintenance of lean body mass.*

Guayusa Leaf Extract

The Guayusa plant is native to the Amazon rainforest and is rich in antioxidants. Because guayusa provides natural amounts of caffeine, the extract used in Thorne’s Pre-Workout Elite utilizes a patented extraction process that reduces the jitters and side effects common to other caffeine sources. This natural caffeine source supports physical and mental energy production, enhances blood flow, and improves reaction time and focus.*

Mango Leaf Extract and Quercetin Phytosome

These two botanical nutrients work together to enhance the other mental and physical benefits of the Pre-Workout Elite formula.* Clinical studies show this combo can increase performance measures, benefit mental focus and reaction time, and support post-workout recovery and repair.*

How to use Pre-Workout Elite

We recommend mixing one scoop of Pre-Workout Elite with 10 ounces of water or a beverage of choice for the best flavor profile. It takes about 15-30 minutes for Pre-Workout Elite to do its best work, so consume it on your way to the gym or competition or drink it when you arrive to time its effects for after your warm-up session.

And you don’t have to be hitting the gym, field, or screen to benefit from Pre-Workout Elite. The focus and mental energy support that Pre-Workout Elite brings to the table can also help you get through an afternoon slump or help carry you through to a project deadline.*
