Padel has changed enormously over the last few years.

Players are training more seriously, tournaments are becoming increasingly competitive and the difference between winning and losing can come down to a handful of points.

Yet when we looked at sports nutrition, there was something missing.

There were pre workouts for the gym. Energy drinks for everyday use. Products developed for runners, cyclists and endurance athletes.

But nothing built from the ground up around what happens on a padel court.

That is why we created SURGE Advanced Energy.

Padel Nutrition is proud to introduce a purpose built pre padel energy formula designed around the physical and mental demands of the sport.

Why Does Padel Need Its Own Pre Game Formula?

Padel isn't simply tennis on a smaller court.

Research describes padel as an intermittent, high intensity sport involving repeated accelerations, decelerations, changes of direction and short recovery periods.

But the physical side is only part of it.

You are constantly reading your opponents, judging rebounds from the glass, deciding whether to defend or attack and communicating with your partner.

A lapse in concentration for a couple of points can completely change a set.

Research into padel has also shown that mental fatigue can affect reaction time and padel specific performance.

That combination of physical effort and constant decision making was exactly what we wanted SURGE to address.

Introducing SURGE Advanced Energy

SURGE Advanced Energy is designed to be taken around 20 to 30 minutes before stepping onto court.

Each serving contains 150mg of caffeine alongside a blend of ingredients selected around energy, focus and performance.

Rather than taking a generic gym pre workout and trying to make it fit padel, SURGE was developed specifically with padel in mind.

Because what you need before a heavy weights session isn't necessarily what you want before a fast, tactical racket sport.

Why Focus Matters So Much in Padel

Most players immediately think about energy when they hear the words pre workout.

For padel, we think concentration deserves just as much attention.

You need to recognise when your opponents are moving towards the net.

You need to anticipate where a ball will rebound from the glass.

You need to decide whether to play the lob, defend the point or attack.

And you have very little time to make those decisions.

Research involving padel players has found that mental fatigue can negatively affect reaction time and technical performance.

That is one of the reasons SURGE has been developed with ingredients aimed at the mental as well as physical side of the game.

150mg of Caffeine Per Serving

Each serving of SURGE contains 150mg of caffeine anhydrous.

Caffeine is one of the most established ingredients in sports nutrition and is recognised for helping increase alertness and concentration.

For padel, that makes obvious sense.

A player who feels switched on from the first point is in a very different position from someone who spends the opening games trying to wake themselves up.

SURGE is designed to be taken before the match so it becomes part of your preparation rather than something you reach for after your energy has already dropped.

Brainberry and L Tyrosine

SURGE also contains 65mg of Brainberry and 950mg of L Tyrosine per serving.

The aim behind including ingredients such as these was to build a formula that reflects the mental demands of padel rather than focusing purely on stimulation.

Padel requires concentration throughout the match.

The physical rallies might be relatively short, but mentally you never really switch off.

Every serve begins another tactical problem.

Built Around More Than Caffeine

We didn't want SURGE to simply be caffeine and flavouring.

The formula also includes creatine monohydrate, citrulline malate, L arginine, betaine, taurine and AstraGin.

Each serving contains:

Creatine Monohydrate 1000mg

L Tyrosine 950mg

Citrulline Malate 900mg

L Arginine 600mg

Betaine 250mg

Taurine 250mg

Caffeine Anhydrous 150mg

Brainberry 65mg

Guarana Extract 37.5mg

AstraGin 12.5mg

It creates a pre game formula designed around the combination of energy, concentration and repeated physical effort involved in padel.

Why Not Just Have a Coffee?

You absolutely can drink coffee before playing padel.

SURGE isn't designed to pretend coffee suddenly stopped working.

The difference is that SURGE has been formulated specifically as a pre padel product rather than providing caffeine alone.

For players already taking their preparation more seriously, it gives them a consistent serving and a wider formula in one drink.

There is also the convenience.

One scoop, mixed with water around 20 to 30 minutes before playing, and you're ready for the court.

Built From Research Into Padel

One of the main principles behind Padel Nutrition has always been that our products should reflect the sport.

The research around padel is expanding quickly, and it is giving us a much clearer picture of what players experience during competition.

Studies show repeated high intensity actions, frequent directional changes and increasing physiological demands as matches progress.

Other research has looked at mental fatigue, reaction time and the ability to maintain padel specific technical performance.

These aren't the same demands as sitting at a desk or performing a traditional gym workout.

We believe sports nutrition for padel should recognise that.

From Hydration to Pre Game Performance

SURGE is also another step in the development of the wider Padel Nutrition range.

HYDRATION was created around electrolyte support.

INTRA CARB was developed for fuelling longer sessions and tournament play.

MOVE PRO focuses on everyday joint support.

And now SURGE gives players something specifically designed for the period before they step onto court.

Our goal is simple.

Build sports nutrition around padel rather than adapting products originally created for somebody else.

Who Is SURGE For?

SURGE is aimed at adult padel players who want a dedicated pre game product for competitive matches, tournaments or demanding training sessions.

It contains 150mg of caffeine per serving, so caffeine intake from other sources should always be considered.

It is not intended for anyone under 18, and players who are particularly sensitive to caffeine should take that into account.

Evening players should also think about timing.

Feeling sharp for your 9pm match is useful.

Being unable to sleep afterwards probably isn't.
