When to drink mate for sport?


When to drink mate for sport?

You have probably already heard about mate from many athletes such as Griezmann, Messi, Pogba, Suarez, and Di Maria. Do you know the benefits of mate but don't know when to drink it to get the most of its benefits ? Then you are in the right place to learn more!

How do the benefits of mate work?

Before a sports session

Drinking mate before sport is surely one of the best times to consume it! It will allow you to have a long-lasting energy boost of around 6 hours and therefore allow you to hold on better during your session. 

In addition, it will allow you to be more concentrated and calm in order to focus on your objectives during your sports session.

So if like Griezmann, Messi, Pogba, and all their comrades you want to improve your performance during your sports sessions: drinking a good hot or cold mate before it is a good plan.

During a sports session 

Drinking mate during sport is also a good time to boost your energy, so you can be at your best. Since you drink it during your physical activity, these effects will be even longer than if you drank it in one gulp before the session. You will simply start the session with less energy than expected.

In addition, mate is an antioxidant and a natural fat burner. It will allow you to eliminate fat, as your session progresses, by helping your muscles to contract and exert effort. Drinking mate allows you to burn fat even faster!

After a sports session

Consuming mate after a session allows for better muscle recovery! And yes, mate is a very powerful antioxidant, but also anti-inflammatory. It will therefore act on your body to allow you to have as little fatigue and aches as possible after your session.

When is the best time to consume mate? 

Mate helps with concentration, increased energy, burning fat and better muscle recovery. It is therefore advisable to drink it before a sports session because it has long-lasting benefits which last up to 6 hours. Given that a session does not generally last 6 hours, it is good to consume it before it so that its benefits act before the session, during the session, and after it.

Excellent, mate has allowed me to reduce smoking and perhaps soon to stop. By drinking this mate, it reduces the lack of nicotine but above all it makes me sick of cigarettes!
