One of the most common questions I’ve gotten since launching Pre JYM Plus is this:
Can I take Post JYM with Pre JYM Plus?
In other words, if you took Pre JYM Plus before your workout, can or should you take Post JYM BCAAs+ Recovery Matrix after the workout?
Yes, you absolutely can—and I highly recommend it.
Key Benefits of Taking Post JYM with Pre JYM Plus
I understand why people are asking the question.
Pre JYM Plus already contains a full 5 grams of creatine monohydrate, 3.2 grams of beta-alanine, and 3 grams of betaine—a complete daily dose of each ingredient.
Now, compare that to the original Pre JYM, which was designed to work with Post JYM and contains lower doses—2 grams of creatine HCl, 2 grams of beta-alanine, and 1.5 grams of betaine. You’d take your first dose of these ingredients before training with Pre JYM and then top it off with Post JYM after the workout, bringing your total intake to the full daily dose across both products.
Because Pre JYM Plus already delivers the full amounts upfront, a lot of people wonder if Post JYM serves any purpose.
It does, and here’s why…
The 2 Recovery Ingredients in Post JYM That Aren’t In Pre JYM Plus
Even though Pre JYM Plus gives you full doses of creatine, beta-alanine, and betaine, Post JYM isn’t just about those ingredients.
It also contains critical recovery components you won’t get in Pre JYM Plus—namely, glutamine and l-carnitine l-tartrate.
Glutamine (3g) – Muscle Repair, Immune Support & Gut Health
Glutamine plays a key role in muscle recovery, immune function, and gut health.
Intense training depletes glutamine levels, which can slow down recovery and weaken the immune system. Supplementing with 3 grams post-workout helps repair muscle tissue, supports immune defenses, and improves nutrient absorption—keeping your body primed for performance.
L-Carnitine L-Tartrate (2g) – Faster Recovery & Reduced Muscle Soreness
L-carnitine l-tartrate enhances blood flow and nutrient delivery to muscles, reducing muscle damage, soreness, and inflammation after training.
Research shows that 2 grams per day speeds up recovery by flushing out metabolic waste, helping you bounce back faster and train harder with less fatigue.
Why These Ingredients Matter in Post JYM
Pre JYM Plus is designed to fuel your workouts with strength, endurance, and pumps.
Post JYM is all about recovery—giving your body the tools it needs to repair muscle tissue, reduce soreness, and bounce back stronger for your next session.
Since glutamine and L-carnitine l-tartrate aren’t in Pre JYM Plus, taking Post JYM ensures you’re covering both performance and recovery, leading to better results over time.
Is It Okay To Take More Creatine, BCAAs, Beta-Alanine & Betaine?
So what about the additional creatine and other ingredients you’re getting from Post JYM that you already got with Pre JYM Plus?
Some people wonder if they can take creatine monohydrate (Pre JYM Plus) and creatine HCl (Post JYM) at around the same time—before and after the workout, respectively.
Yes, you can. Once creatine is absorbed, it functions the same way inside your muscles whether it’s monohydrate or HCl. So there’s no issue taking both.
There’s no harm in taking additional beta-alanine or betaine, either. In fact, the extra beta-alanine can help support endurance and reduce fatigue over time, while betaine promotes increases in muscle strength and power.
BCAAs can be especially beneficial. Taking a second dose post-workout helps further reduce muscle breakdown, replenish depleted amino acids, and kickstart the recovery process so your muscles rebuild stronger.
Since Pre JYM Plus includes 6 grams of BCAAs before training, adding Post JYM ensures you’re maximizing muscle repair and growth with another fully dosed serving.
Use Both Pre JYM Plus & Post JYM for the Best Results
You can absolutely take Post JYM with Pre JYM Plus.
No matter which Pre JYM formula I use (original Pre JYM or Pre JYM Plus), I always follow it up with Post JYM to get the added benefits of glutamine and l-carnitine.
If you want to maximize your recovery to come back stronger for your next workout, by all means take Post JYM after workouts.
