“Really Hurts My Nerves”: 277 Lbs Beast Nick Walker Expresses Disdain Over People’s Bizarre Pre-Workout Consumption

Despite not being advisable, several virtual trends have implored some fitness enthusiasts to try out gulping a scoop of their pre-workout without mixing it with water. As this has several demerits of its own, bodybuilding beast Nick Walker has now made his thoughts known on how uncool it is to engage in dry scooping.

The IFBB pro bodybuilder who won the Arnold Classic title back in 2021 is planning to make a powerful return through the IFBB New York Pro. After his Hamstring tear, the bodybuilder found it hard to get back to his usual grind but at present, he is trying his best. By drawing attention to the terrific act of dry scooping, he is now looking to correct fitness influencers on what they are going wrong.

The Mutant explains how pre-workout ingredients need water for activation

Walker shared a video on his Instagram and found it necessary to express which weird habits of people get on his nerves. He began by announcing that he hates pre-workout dry scooping. “You know what really hurts my nerves? I hate people that dry-scoop their pre-workout. I mean, I don’t understand it like, do you think it looks cool? I don’t know I think it looks weird to me.”

Then he further added that the reason pre-workouts are prepared with water is because the ingredients require water for activation. According to the bodybuilder, blending pre-workouts with water will only bring out the full effect. “You do realize, a lot of the ingredients within your pre-workout, you need to mix it with water to shake it up, blend it with water for it to like really take the full effect you know. And also do you really think it looks cool?”

But why exactly is it so harmful to engage in pre-workout dry scooping? Let us find out.

The demerits of dry scooping

According to Hackensack Meridian Health, while dry-scooping, people might inhale the powder which can subsequently lead to breathing problems. They also noted, “If the powder makes its way to the lungs, they may develop inflammation or an infection.” Moreover, in an attempt to swallow the powder, people might cough it up in a way that creates discomfort in the food pipe, and it might even go into one’s windpipe.

Moreover, the high amount of caffeine present in the pre-workouts makes it extremely dangerous to swallow it all at once, as it would lead to heart palpitation and several other heart-related issues. It is advised to take the pre-workout with water to also keep this caffeine amount in check.
