TAKING A NOOTROPIC SUPPLEMENT FOR WORKOUTS

TAKING A NOOTROPIC SUPPLEMENT FOR WORKOUTS

Nootropics have surged in popularity as users have discovered their ability to derive clarity concerning mental processes. Users describe improvements in terms of invigoration, motivation, and mental clarity. By reviewing the advantages associated with consuming a nootropic supplement, improving your workout experience should be achievable.

REDUCTION OR ELIMINATION OF MENTAL CALAMITIES

It isn’t improper nutrition or lack of access to top-notch facilities that is truly holding you back. One of the largest barriers to success as an athlete in any sport are mental issues. These include anxiety and depression. Individual nootropics as well as stacks (combinations of multiple nootropic substances) work to alleviate these issues. According to Nootropics Info, “Think about going to the gym. Do you feel motivated and driven? Even regular gym goers experience not wanting to work out here and there. You may be too tired or simply don’t feel like it. Even the most driven athletes have the odd day when motivation is an issue. Once nootropics cross the blood-brain barrier, they can increase or inhibit the production and release of various neurotransmitters. Some of the best nootropics for motivation are Phenylpiracetam, Modafinil, and Noopept.”

EXPERIMENT TO FIND THE RIGHT NOOTROPICS FOR YOUR REGIMEN

Be aware that some nootropics have a stimulant like nature. These are known as eugrogics. The most popular substance of this class is Adrafinil. Its enantiomer Modafinil is known as a prescription medication prescribed to those who work third shift hours or are prone to sudden sleep syndrome. Other nootropics, such as those of the racetam class, may increase motivation, but not in the same manner as eugrogics. Since everyone reacts to nootropic substances differently, it is important to experiment with a variety of options and stacks to find out what works well for your workout regimen.

REDUCING STRESS LEVELS

Certain nootropics are effective at reducing stress. One is Aniracetam. Aniracetam works to regulate levels of glutamate which indirectly modulates the activity of GABA neurotransmitters. Most are familiar with the relaxing effects of alcohol, as it directly modulates GABA receptors in the brain. Aniracetam works to increase levels of GABA neurotransmitters. This allows for a reduction in stress and anxiety.

NATURAL NOOTROPICS

Should consuming synthetic powders not be up your alley, there are several natural options available. One surprisingly common option is coffee. Some others include Gingko Biloba, Lion’s Mane, and St John’s Wort. All amino acids are also in this category as neural development relies on the biological synthesis of proteins. Natural nootropics are an excellent first step for those who would like to experiment with nootropic substances without stepping into the world of synthetics.

MATCHING EXERCISE TYPES TO NOOTROPICS

The type of exercise or sport you are engaging in should correlate to the nootropics you consume. In terms of cross-functionality this could also apply to other aspects of your lifestyle including area of study or employment.

MODULATE DOSAGE SCHEDULES

It is important to start off with small and sporadic doses and then slowly increase dosages and dosage amounts. This is especially true with less researched or newly developed nootropics. An example of this principle is easily illustrated when comparing Noopept to Piracetam. Noopept is purportedly 1000x stronger than Piracetam. Although both have a history of research concerning human consumption, respect of the difference in orders of magnitude is essential to understand. Newer nootropics such as Coluracetam and Siniform require an even higher degree of caution.
