Power your training with Per4m’s supplements that taste as good as they perform. From Pre-Workout and Pump to Creatine, Hydration and Amino Acids, every formula is built for easy daily consistency with zero grim flavours.
Who supplements are for
If you train regularly, you already know the real challenge is consistency. Supplements help when your schedule, appetite, or energy levels get in the way of doing everything perfectly, every day.
They’re also useful if you want something specific from your session:
- More energy and focus before training, especially early mornings or after work.
- More output in repeated bursts of effort like lifting, sprints, and circuits.
- Better hydration when you sweat heavily or train in warmer conditions.
- Extra support around training when your protein intake is lower than you’d like.
How to choose the right supplement
1) Pick your training driver
If you want energy, start with a stim-based pre-workout like Cherry Fizz Pre-Workout for that dialled-in, ready-to-go feeling. If you train later in the day, or you’re sensitive to caffeine, go stim-free with PUMP Stim Free Pre-Workout and keep your sleep intact.
2) Add the daily staple
If you only take one performance supplement consistently, make it creatine. It’s simple, well-researched, and doesn’t rely on perfect timing. Go clean and unflavoured with Micronized Creatine, or make it an easy daily habit with Cherry Fizz Flavoured Creatine.
3) Cover hydration when it actually matters
Electrolytes aren’t just a summer thing. If you’re doing longer sessions, high sweat workouts, or you’re the person who finishes training with salt lines on your top, Hydrate Electrolyte Mix is the easy choice. If you like your recovery to pull double duty, Clear Whey Hydrate combines a lighter, juice-style protein drink with added electrolytes.
4) Use amino acids with a clear purpose
Amino acids are most useful when you’re training fasted, you don’t fancy food around your session, or you want something easy to sip while you train. That’s where a full-spectrum essential amino formula like EAA Xtra Passion Fruit shines. If you prefer your aminos with a more energetic edge, you’ll find that style of product in Amino Burn.
When to take supplements
Pre-workout
Most people take pre-workout 15 to 30 minutes before training. If you’re new to stims, start smaller than a full serving and build up based on how you feel. If you train late, stim-free is the smarter play.
Creatine
Daily consistency beats perfect timing. Take it whenever you’ll remember: with breakfast, post-workout, or in your afternoon water. If you want a faster saturation approach, you can do a short loading phase, but plenty of people stick to one daily serving and keep it simple.
Hydration and electrolytes
Use electrolytes during training when you sweat a lot, and after training when you want to rehydrate properly. If your session was hard enough that plain water feels like it isn’t doing the job, electrolytes usually make the difference.
Amino acids
Best used intra-workout, sipped during training, or between meals when you want something light. If you’re already hitting your daily protein target, amino acids are optional. If you’re not, they’re a practical tool.
Daily foundations
For an everyday cover-the-gaps approach, a greens product like Greens Raspberry Cherry works best when it becomes part of a routine: first thing, with lunch, or blended into a smoothie.
Supplement benefits (what the research tends to support)
More performance in repeated efforts
Creatine is famous for a reason. It’s consistently linked with improved performance in repeated bursts of high-intensity exercise, which maps well to lifting, sprint work, and hard circuits.
Better training output when energy is the limiter
Caffeine can improve performance at relatively moderate intakes, and higher doses usually don’t add extra benefit. The practical takeaway is simple: enough to feel switched on, not so much that it wrecks your stomach or your sleep.
More reps and better pumps with pump-focused ingredients
Ingredients like citrulline malate and L-citrulline are commonly used to support blood flow and training endurance. Research often uses higher acute doses, which is why pump-focused formulas typically go bigger on these ingredients.
Hydration support when sweat is high
Electrolytes matter because water alone doesn’t replace what you lose through sweat. Sodium is the key one for fluid balance, and adding electrolytes can help you rehydrate more effectively when you’ve pushed hard.

FAQs
What supplements should I start with?
If you want the simplest high-return stack: creatine daily, electrolytes when you sweat heavily, and pre-workout only when you genuinely need the lift. Add amino acids if you struggle to eat around training, or you want something light to sip during sessions.
How much creatine should I take?
Most people use 3 to 5g daily. Some prefer an initial loading phase, but it’s not required if you’re consistent. The main thing is taking it every day.
Should I take creatine on rest days?
Yes. Creatine works through daily saturation, not a one-off kick before training. Rest days are part of staying consistent.
Is creatine only for bodybuilding?
No. It’s relevant for any sport or training style that involves repeated high-intensity efforts, including team sports, sprint work, functional fitness, and gym-based strength training.
What’s the difference between stim and stim-free pre-workout?
Stim-based pre-workouts rely on ingredients like caffeine for energy and alertness. Stim-free options focus more on pumps, hydration support, and training performance without a stimulant hit. If you train late, stim-free is usually the better call.
How late is too late for caffeine?
It depends on your sensitivity, but caffeine can hang around for hours. If pre-workout affects your sleep, you’ll feel it in training quality and recovery. Swap to stim-free or keep caffeine earlier in the day.
Do I need electrolytes for every workout?
Not always. If sessions are shorter and you don’t sweat much, water and normal meals can be enough. Electrolytes earn their place when sweat is high, sessions are longer, or you’re trying to rehydrate properly after hard training.
Do I need amino acids if I already use protein powder?
If you consistently hit your daily protein target, amino acids are optional. They become more useful when you train fasted, don’t want a full shake, or want something easy to sip during training without feeling heavy.
Can I stack creatine with pre-workout?
Yes. Creatine stacks well with most supplement routines. If you’re taking a stim pre-workout, pay attention to total caffeine intake across the day so it doesn’t mess with sleep.
What about tingles from pre-workout?
That pins-and-needles feeling is commonly linked with beta-alanine. It’s harmless for most people, but if you hate the sensation, try a smaller serving or go stim-free.
Are supplements safe?
Used properly, most mainstream sports supplements are fine for healthy adults. If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, under 18, have a medical condition, or you’re on medication, check with a healthcare professional before adding new supplements, especially stimulants.
Food supplements should be used alongside a varied, balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
