[Drink some apple juice before working out] Going to the gym crazily is actually to tear the muscles, and then your body starts to repair it, and it is over-recovery. Drinking 12-16 ounces of apple juice before going to the gym can provide 45-60 grams of carbohydrates and give you quick energy (because of the glucose in the juice) and a steady stream of energy (because of the fructose). This helps suppress cortisol and reduces muscle damage, allowing you to train for more sets.
