In many sports, supplements have long been standard. Whether in bodybuilding, athletics or cycling, supplements are part of the daily training routine. They are also widely used among professional footballers. Yet many semi-professionals, amateurs and ambitious youth players often lag behind in this respect. In this blog post, we look at why supplements can make sense for footballers too and what benefits they can offer.
The role of supplements in football
Why are supplements important?
Football is an intense sport that demands peak physical and mental performance. A balanced diet is the foundation, but it is not always enough to meet these high demands. This is where supplements come in. They can help to fill nutritional gaps and support recovery and performance.
Use in other sports
In many other sports, supplements are well established. Athletes use them to support their performance and their recovery. In football, supplements are also widespread among professionals, but semi-professionals, amateurs and youth players often still have some catching up to do.
Which supplements make sense for footballers?
Pregame360
Pregame360 is a specially developed supplement that is taken before training or a match to support performance.
- Benefits: Provides energy and supports focus and endurance.
- Recommendation: Take Pregame360 30–60 minutes before training or a match so you are well prepared.
Recover360
Recover360 supports recovery after intense training sessions or matches. It provides carbohydrates, essential amino acids (EAAs) and minerals – including magnesium, which contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
- Benefits: Supports recovery, helps refill glycogen stores and contains EAAs and minerals (including a high dose of magnesium).
- Recommendation: Drink Recover360 straight after training or a match to get your recovery started.
Creatine360
Creatine360 is a high-quality creatine product for footballers who rely on power and explosiveness.
- Benefits: Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise (beneficial effect with a daily intake of 3 g) – exactly what sprints and duels demand.
- Recommendation: Take 3–5 g of Creatine360 daily.
