  • Anyone drinking beetroot juice? I’m reading some bro-science and getting impulse-purchase vibes

    I have a 5km I’m targeting a month from now so looking for any marginal gains going.

    Anybody had any experience with beetroot juice specifically for running performance?

  • Yeah I use it for races on foot or bike.

    I think it gives you a little bit, like having a coffee before….not sure if it will help on something explosive like a 5k

    The beetroot juice will make you shit, so you gotta time that.

    I think the way to do it it 4 x 200ml over 4 days, the last shot being on race day.

    You can buy a pack of 4 shots or a big bottle

  • Don’t want my 5KM to be explosive for the wrong reasons.. beetroot juice and a caffeine gel might need some experimentation before I risk running on them combined.
