Candy at the gym?
What’s going on?
Why should you eat freeze-dried candy before the gym? There’s a new trend going around that might not make a lot of sense at first sight. I’m sure you’ve seen it at your local gym. You’ll walk in and see some 6-foot, 200-pound, chiseled guy going to town on a Rice Krispies treat in the lobby. But wait, why is he eating that? Aren’t Rice Krispies loaded with sugars and everything health magazines warn us to avoid? Surprisingly, there’s some science backing this snack. First, let’s not confuse this with carb-loading. Carbs come in two types: simple and complex. Complex carbs, found in whole grains and certain rice varieties, are usually eaten a day ahead since they stay in the system longer, offering a slow-burn energy source. That’s why cross-country runners or football players have a big meal the day before a game or match. Simple carbs, in contrast, provide a quick burst of energy, making them ideal for pre-workout fuel. Now, what about calories? Of course, there’s a need to be mindful of carbs before a workout. Eating an entire box of sugary snacks won’t boost workout results. However, when you plan for those calories in your macros, the workout benefits can outweigh the snack’s caloric load.
Chico Candy Labs
Chico Candy Labs is here to give you that quick workout boost with our premium candy line. Our product offers several benefits, making it the best pre-workout you didn’t know was possible. Let’s start with portion control. We’re hitting that sweet spot where too little won’t be effective, and too much could counteract your workout benefits. Chico Candy Labs combines the oldest dieting technique with a modern twist: by freeze-drying our candy, we expand its volume by three to four times, allowing each bite to carry about one-fourth the calories of regular candy. This way, you can enjoy more bites without high calories. Additionally, the sugar content in our candy supports your workout. To enhance this further, we infuse our candies with pre-workout ingredients. We take our classic freeze-dried candy, roll it in Everclear to create a tacky surface, and then place it in a dehydrator overnight to evaporate the alcohol. This leaves a dry, sticky surface, perfect for dusting with pre-workout powder, giving you an extra energy boost. You can choose from various lines depending on your budget, goals, and preferences. For a straightforward energy kick, our C4 and Ghost lines fit the bill, while our Bucked Up line delivers a more stimulating experience with 3.7 grams of beta-alanine per serving.
