For example, a pre-workout supplement like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bodi.com\/us\/en\/pn\/energize-pre-workout?ICID=BLOG_ENERGIZE&amp;refsource=Blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Beachbody Performance Energize<\/a> boasts <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beachbodyondemand.com\/blog\/how-to-make-caffeine-more-effective\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">caffeine<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.beachbodyondemand.com\/blog\/beta-alanine-and-muscular-endurance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">beta-alanine<\/a>, a combination that helps\u00a0increase energy\u00a0and delay fatigue regardless of gender.<\/p>\n<p>With post-workout options, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bodi.com\/us\/en\/pn\/recover-post-workout-protein-powder?ICID=BLOG_RECOVER&amp;refsource=Blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Beachbody Performance Recover<\/a>, the goals are to help muscles recover faster and replenish fuel stores. Those outcomes benefit both men and women.*<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not to say the genders don\u2019t have slightly differing nutrient needs. \u201cFor example, women have a greater need for\u00a0iron, and this could be one of the components in a supplement designed for women,\u201d Jaramillo says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne for men may have slightly higher calorie and protein content, as men can have more body mass and require a greater intake to support their fitness,\u201d she continues. \u201cHowever, taking a supplement not specifically designed for your gender can still be beneficial to your workout.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>What Should Men and Women Look for in Workout Supplements?<\/h2>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-178742\" src=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/17115946\/men-vs-women-workout-supplements-600-requirements.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"\/><\/p>\n<p>One major consideration to keep in mind when comparing workout supplements is to look closely at the ingredients. Among other concerns,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/30089501\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">research suggests<\/a>\u00a0that some formulations may contain banned substances.<\/p>\n<p>That isn\u2019t the case with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beachbodyondemand.com\/blog\/beachbody-performance-line\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Beachbody Performance products<\/a>, all of which carry the <a href=\"https:\/\/sport.wetestyoutrust.com\/about\/lgcassure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Informed-Sport\u00a0seal<\/a>.
