Beetroot juice boosts endurance by widening blood vessels and delivering more oxygen to muscles, but only if you're properly fueled and hydrated going in. Without those basics, the juice won't help.

The secret sauce is helping my athlete PR every single meet: beetroot juice. Now, beetroot juice will only work for you if you can answer yes to these two questions. Question number one: are you actually fueling properly on race day and the days leading up to race day? Question number two: are you hydrated going into the race with your electrolytes and your fluids? If you say yes, then beetroot juice is going to be killer for you. When you take beetroot juice, it opens up your blood vessels. So instead of your blood traveling through a small skinny straw, it's traveling through a big wide straw. The more blood that goes through draw once, the more oxygen your muscles can have. So what this means is your muscles can last longer with beetroot juice than without beetroot juice.
