    Default Beetroot

    Beetroot is a common addition to many pre-workout blends as it has been shown to increase nitric oxide production which can enhance blood flow and pumps. This can also benefit endurance performance, but likely won’t have any immediate effect on strength or size gains. There are several ways to take beetroot to get the optimal dosage of nitrate, so pick your favorite and head to the gym!

    From time to time I add beetroot extract to my "preworkout". You will get some good pumps.

    I see beet root getting more and more popular these days. A couple of months ago I never heard of it and now I see it mentioned on forums constantly.

    Can't go wrong with beets or beet supplements. Turmeric is great also for you.
