Dry scooping is the consumption of a scoop of pre-workout powder supplement without first diluting it with liquid, with the intention of creating a larger energy boost than would usually be obtained. The objective is to enhance the users stamina, thus allowing them to workout for longer.

Reasons for Practice

Pre-workout powders typically contain a large number of different ingredients such as amino acids, caffeine, and creatine that are consumed in order to boost stamina and enhance performance during a workout and are intended to be mixed with liquid prior to consumption. Dry scooping involved consuming the powder without first mixing it with liquid in the belief that this will give a greater energy boost than by mixing.

Health risks

Albert Rizzo, chief medical officer at the American Lung Association, noted that ingesting the supplement in its dry form increases the risk of inhaling the powder, which can lead to coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, or even aspiration pneumonia, which would be especially concerning to anyone with underlying lung diseases. Many supplements contain high levels of caffeine, with a single scoop containing the equivalent of up to five cups of coffee. Excessive caffeine consumption can lead to heart related side effects such as palpitations, increased blood pressure, and chest pains
