Pre-workout Powder - anyone use?

[shutup&shoot]

When I was using a pre workout it was Craze. Don't know if it's still on the market.

I used C4 Extreme... Might wanna start with half a scoop.

I tried the "Roll Your Own" pre-workout mix today with good results.

The mix:

- 1 tsp Tyrosine powder
- .5 tsp Beta Alanine (500mg)
- 1 tsp Acetyl L-Carnatine
- .125 tsp caffeine (125 mg)
- Mixed into 20oz of water with one packet of Lemonade Crystal Light.

I feel like it worked well. I felt it kicking in about half way through my 10 min warm up. I noticed my heart rate was a bit higher throughout the workout and I was sweating slightly more than normal. I certainly felt a bit more motivated to carry each set to failure and push harder without feeling as fatigued. Overall not a night and day difference (which is a good thing) but certainly a nice nudge.

I could definitely see utilizing this mix on "bigger" lift days, like squatting and deadlifting. I only train 3 days a week right now so I don't see any harm in having one before all three workouts.

Good report, thanx,

I take Pump Fuel. I have taken a bunch of the ones previously mentioned but this one literally makes me feel strong. Its amazing. I get it from GNC.

I'm disappointed they stopped making the grape. The pump fuel insane is a kick in the ass if you really want a boost!

I just bought the new Super Pump 3.0 last night. It works quite well.

Does it still cause the ol' "superpump colon evac"? I've used Superpump 250, and the "max". Both don't seem to agree with my el stomacho.

Now I usually just a take an amino energy sup like amino uptake, or amino energy. Jack3d was Fing badass back in the day though....

I have not experienced that with any of the Super Pump products.

Interesting, just about anyone I've ever talked to that took Superpump 250 mentioned it.... I mean the 'tards on bodybuilding.com don't call it "superdump" for nothing.

Good luck, and feel lucky that it doesn't F your stomach up. Its a decent preworkout for sure.

I can't use pre workouts, a day or two after using them I feel like I have aids, can barely get out of bed..... Wondering if they zap my adrenal glands or something.....

Caffeine and energy drinks are no problem though

I think the fact that I mix it with 16 oz of water instead of the recommended 8 oz may be a reason.
