Pre-workout supplements come in all shapes and sizes, and pre-workout vitamins sit at a specific end of that spectrum — formulated for people who want nutritional support built around their training schedule. From caffeine tablets and energy capsules to creatine, electrolyte gummies, and high-strength botanical extracts, there's a wide range here designed to fit into a serious training routine.
Whether you're looking for a pre workout shot before a session, something to take daily as part of your stack, or a tablet-based option that's easy to dose on the go, this range covers the formats and ingredients that active people actually look for. Every product is developed by Myprotein's expert nutritionists, so you know exactly what's in each one.
Who Pre-Workout Vitamins Are For
These products are built for people who train consistently and want their supplement routine to reflect that. If you're someone who hits the gym regularly, runs, cycles, or plays sport, and you're already thinking about what goes into your body before a session — this range is designed with you in mind. It's not about replacing a solid diet; it's about building on one.
Experienced gym-goers looking to fine-tune their stack will find familiar ingredients in precise formats here, from creatine monohydrate tablets through to pre-workout gummies for those who prefer something without a shake. If you're newer to pre-workout vitamins and want to understand what's in each product before committing, the ingredient transparency across this range makes that straightforward.
When to Use Pre-Workout Vitamins
Timing varies by product, but most pre-workout vitamins are taken 20–30 minutes before training to align with your session. Caffeine tablets, pre-workout shots, and energy capsules are typically taken in this window. Creatine, on the other hand, works best when taken consistently every day — the timing around workouts matters less than building it up steadily over time, with a daily intake of at least 3g needed for the authorised performance benefit.1
Electrolyte gummies and vitamin-based options can be used before, during, or around training depending on your routine. If you train in the evening, it's worth checking the caffeine content of any product you choose, as stimulant-based pre-workouts are better suited to morning or afternoon sessions. Always read the label for specific usage guidance on each product.
Pre-Workout Vitamins Benefits
Creatine for High-Intensity Training
Creatine is one of the most researched ingredients in sports nutrition. Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise,1 making it a go-to for anyone doing weight training, sprinting, or interval-based workouts. Creatine Monohydrate Tablets and Creapure® Micronised Creatine Capsules both deliver meaningful doses in a convenient daily format.
Vitamin C During Intense Exercise
Vitamin C contributes to maintaining the normal function of the immune system during and after intense physical exercise.2 For people training hard and frequently, keeping vitamin C in the mix is a straightforward nutritional decision. It's also worth noting that vitamin C contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.3
Energy Metabolism Support from B Vitamins
Several products in this range contain B vitamins, including riboflavin, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12. Riboflavin contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism,4 vitamin B6 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism,5 and vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.6 These aren't stimulant effects — they're foundational nutritional roles that matter when you're training regularly.
Flexible Formats for Every Routine
Not everyone wants to mix a powder before a session. This range covers tablets, capsules, gummies, liquid shots, and high-strength botanical extracts — so there's a format that fits how you actually train. Pre Workout Gummies, a Pre Workout Shot, and tablet options like Pure Caffeine Tablets all serve different preferences without compromising on ingredient quality.

FAQs
What is pre workout and what does it contain?
Pre workout is a category of supplements taken before exercise, typically containing ingredients like caffeine, creatine, B vitamins, electrolytes, or botanical extracts. The exact formulation varies by product — some focus on a single ingredient like caffeine or creatine, while others combine several. In this range, formats include tablets, capsules, gummies, shots, and high-strength extracts, giving you real choice over what you take and how.
What's the difference between a pre workout shot and pre workout tablets?
A pre workout shot is a liquid format — fast to take, no mixing required, and easy to consume in one go before training. Pre workout tablets are a more traditional format, better suited to people who prefer precise, portable dosing without any liquid. Both can contain similar ingredients; the choice usually comes down to personal preference and convenience. Pure Caffeine Tablets, for example, are a stripped-back tablet option, while the Pre Workout Shot delivers a ready-to-drink format.
How much creatine do I need to take for it to work?
A daily intake of at least 3g of creatine is required for the authorised performance benefit — creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise.1 Consistency matters more than timing here; it's a daily intake ingredient rather than something that works session-by-session. Creatine Monohydrate Tablets and Creapure® Micronised Creatine Capsules both provide meaningful doses to hit that daily target.
What's Shilajit and why is it in a pre-workout range?
Shilajit is a naturally occurring resinous substance found in mountain rock formations, particularly in the Himalayas. 1000mg Shilajit Capsules contain a 40:1 extract — equivalent to 40,000mg of raw Shilajit — standardised to 60% fulvic and humic acids. It's an ingredient with a long history of use in traditional wellness practices, and it fits into a pre-workout range as a botanical option for those who prefer plant-derived ingredients in their stack.
Are pre workout gummies as effective as capsules or shots?
Pre workout gummies deliver the same active ingredients as other formats — the difference is just in how they're taken. Creatine Gummies, Electrolyte Gummies, and Pre-Workout Gummies all provide measured doses in a chewable format, which suits people who dislike swallowing tablets or mixing powders. Effectiveness depends on the ingredients and doses inside, not the delivery format itself.
Can I take caffeine tablets as a pre workout supplement?
Pure Caffeine Tablets are a straightforward way to include caffeine in a pre-workout routine. Caffeine is a stimulant compound that's widely used before training sessions. As a tablet, it offers simple, consistent dosing without any additional ingredients — useful for people who already have a stack and just want to add caffeine on its own. Always check the caffeine content and factor in any caffeine you're getting from other sources that day.
What pre workout vitamins do you recommend for gym training?
Creatine Monohydrate Tablets are a solid starting point for anyone doing resistance or high-intensity gym training — creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise,1 and these tablets make daily dosing straightforward. For those who want the purest form of creatine available, Creapure® Micronised Creatine Capsules deliver 2.8g of 99.99% pure creatine monohydrate per serving, making it one of the most trusted options on the market.
Who develops the pre-workout vitamins in this range?
Every product in this range is developed by Myprotein's expert nutritionists. Formulations are built around ingredient quality, accurate dosing, and transparency — so you know exactly what you're taking and at what level. That applies across the full range, from simple single-ingredient options like creatine tablets to more complex formulas like the Origin Pre-Workout.
What's the difference between pre workout energy supplements and regular vitamins?
Pre-workout energy supplements are specifically formulated around training — they often contain stimulants like caffeine, performance-oriented ingredients like creatine, or electrolytes suited to active use. Regular vitamins are more broadly nutritional, designed to fill everyday dietary gaps. Products like the Energy Capsules or Pre Workout Shot in this range sit clearly in the pre-workout category, while others — like those containing B vitamins — bridge the gap between performance nutrition and everyday supplementation.
How many products are in the pre-workout vitamins range and what formats are available?
There are 19 products in this range, spanning tablets, capsules, gummies, liquid shots, and high-strength extracts. That breadth means you're not locked into one format or one type of ingredient. Whether you're after creatine, caffeine, electrolytes, B vitamins, or botanicals like Shilajit and Green Tea Extract, there's a delivery format that fits how you train and how you like to supplement.
