Amazon has a lightning deal right now on the Insane Labs Psychotic Gold for $22....only good for 14 more minutes!
You can get more than one but only one in each flavor. I just got three for $66.

I am constantly told that coffee before and after a workout is bad, that it interferes with the body and the effectiveness of the workout. I don't eat sugar, I try to avoid it altogether.

Preworkout is mostly made of three things, caffeine, beta aline or niacin, and sugar.

I just use caffeine as a preworkout. Just get caffeine pills, or a strong cup of coffee.
Because Caffeine is sourced in different ways, not all caffeine is created equal.

Some major labor stuff, particularly Bodytech preworkout, gave me debilitating exertion headaches.

One ingredient that happens to be en vogue is L-Citrulline. This will help with pumps. I think it’s too hard on the heart to use regularly but you ought to have it in your toolkit.

It has been rumored that large amounts of caffeine decreases ur testosterone production, but this hasn’t been proven.

It’s funny I came across this thread today. I stopped at the gas station as usual on my way to the gym today and brought my 3.00$ bang and as I was drinking it I was saying I hate spending money on pre workouts and I am not saving any money drinking bangs. I am going to give them up for a bit and just let the coffee in the morning keep me going. Sometimes I feel like I need a extra bump. There was a time that I couldn’t train without a pre workout and got off of them. Now I feel like I can’t train without a bang. It’s a total mindFk as with most things when you are use to using them.. tonight I am going to brew up a small part of espresso and keep it in the fridge and have a shot or two in the am and see how I feel. 1 pound of cafe bustello is about 6 bucks... with all the other things I take u know if I get into 1 set I will be fired right up. Like I said it’s a mindblip

I've used the Insane Labz Psychotic now for 2 w/o's in a row. Holy shit.....my heart rate must have reached 180 in between sets. I might have to cut it down to 1/2 scoop and see what happens.

Muscle Feast PRE, very expensive but the best I have ever tried:

...but I recommend what I am doing now which is a really good multivitamin, b complex, and vitamin C.

The B vitamins are really important when it comes to building muscle:

Bangs are a usless drink, their "super creatine" is not actually creatine. Its just an useless additive.

I myself am a lover of energy drinks, I love the kerosene taste of them. Aldis has 4 offbrand red-bulls for $3 or a normal sized offbrand monster for $1 each.

If you want something natural, try beets in a can or beet juice.

Try it. Enjoy the pump. You're welcome.

So today I only used 1/2 scoop of the Psychotic and added 1/2 scoop of my NitroSurge and that was about perfect. I was previously using 2 scoops of the NitroSurge and that wasn't quite doing it lately.
