    Strongest Stimulant Pre Workout


    A couple of similar threads popped up on here recently.

    N2KTS was the strongest pre workout in terms of stimulants (not pumps) that I had ever tried. At the time I hadn't been into pre workout powders and it was the first time I tried DMAA. One scoop and my performance in the gym increased substantially. By the end of the tub I was up to three scoops and the same feeling wasn't there anymore.

    Most supplements nowadays are proprietary blend in this category and reps push their products as the best (obviously) but I want to know what your favourites are that you have tried. Some companies also change formulas but keep the same name which makes it harder to keep track of (many varying reviews of Mesomorph due to this). Please list comparisons rather than single product recommendations because I loved N2KTS but I haven't tried 1MR, Launch, Maximize V2 so if I just said N2KTS you wouldn't know what I am comparing them to.

    So, in terms of stimulants. What are the strongest pre workouts out there?

    N2KTS is a ramped up version of Jacked. The stim complex is strong but also made me very moody. 1MR is pure stim and I wouldn't recommend it having tried it myself, for a myriad of reasons and the impending crash is just as strong. Taurus' Wyked is a strong stim based PWO, and the focus attribute on 3 scoops is top notch. I loved Mesomorph before certain ingredients were stripped out. It had a strong stim complex, but what really separated it from the pack, was that it was geared towards performance as opposed to "just" being a strong stim and nothing more. Maximize V2 is the strongest stim based PWO on the market, it's awesome in that regard, if that's what you're after. Launch I have yet to try, but I've heard nothing but good things about it. Hope that helps!

    I wouldn't go so far as to say "anything" with 1,3. I don't believe that all 1,3 products are equal. I've crashed with some, and with some others I haven't.

    I've tried a lot...lol (hence the old adrenal fatigue )

    My opinion is kind of skewed, too, because once my adrenals were shot, I was still using stuff and had to dose higher because I didn't have ample time off.

    N2KTS is at the top of the pack. I thought it looked identical to Jack3d when I first saw it, so I wasn't interested, but when I became a rep, I wanted to try all of the products we offered. So, I did, and I felt more from it than Jack3d, liked it more, and loved the taste (grape koolaid? yes please).

    I always used to love Jack3d prior to that, but my sensitivity built up very quickly (working out 5-6 days a week is a downfall when it comes to this because you use a pre-workout SO much).

    Wyked was good. I was using it at about 1.5 scoops and I felt some good focus from it, but wasn't over-stimmed (that was in April/May and I was unable to feel stimmed-out any more).

    NO Xplode (original) didn't give me a stim feeling at all; decent focus though (one of the first products I used a few years ago).

    NaNO Vapor was probably the craziest I've ever felt on a pre-workout stim. I took that back in college and would want to puke it was so intense. I absolutely loathed the flavor.

    Out of all that I've tried (a lot), those 4 are probably the most stimmed feeling I've had as far as a pre-workout specific product is concerned. The NaNO Vapor probably hit the hardest, but it was one of the first products I ever used in this category.

    Hands down the most intense stim feeling I've had has been from 200mg of caffeine and 25mg of ephedrine, though. Especially at 3x/day spread out by 4 hours, it was intense.

    This pretty much sums up my views exactly.

    SuperpumpMax, not that great. Maximize V2 is leagues ahead of N2KTS in terms of stim complex (no crash), and yes I've used both. Anabolic Ignite is a performance driven PWO, which I use along with a stim of my choice (dexaprine).

    Some products with 1,3 are very weak. Hence me asking this questions as the quantities are hidden behind proprietary blends. A lot look similar on paper but vary massively in the real world.

    Thanks SP, I know you are keen on your stimulants so Maximize V2 must be good.

    So you find Hemo Rage stronger than N2KTS on a serving for serving basis? This is interesting.

    I have moved up to 400mg caffeine + 30mg ephedrine HCL once per day before training sessions. I am looking to get away from ephedrine as it is a legal grey area in the UK.

    I have heard good things about Wyked, Lit Up and Adamantium but I am reluctant to use DAA. I am concerned with some of the side effects reported in terms of anxiety and tried it once but had to stop after three days because of consistent GI distress.

    I was doing 400mg caffeine + 50mg ephedrine multiple times a day for a week or two lol; if only I would have been smart enough to step back and look at what I was doing and know that I just needed time off. I do love EC, though. It's amazing.

    I enjoyed all 3 pre-workouts you listed off there. Adamantium is a nice one to use for a non-stim route. I'd love if it had something else in there for enhanced focus via a non-stim pathway. I like to take a scoop of it + a scoop of Purple Wraath and 2g extra LCLT -- gives a nice spectrum for pre-workout.

    I have never had any negatives from DAA; I love the stuff. I really enjoyed LitUp, too; but it wasn't a strong stim feeling so I didn't mention it. It was a very low-key pre-workout, which was nice in its own way.

    Im on my phone so i wont get too detailed but try out noxipro by ctd labs. I came right off 1.5 scoops of n2kts to 2.5 scoops of noxipro and the noxipro is superior. Hell i just ordered 2 more of em. Not to mention the orange papaya flavor is the best tasting preworkout ive EVER tasted.

    flashover has been my fav 1,3 containing pre-w/o. mainly because it goes on sale for 15 bucks from time to time and its potent as shiz. Also i havnt seen too many other pre workouts that disclose each ingredient amount.....

    i stay away from 1,3 now b/c of the crash so its just ECA or RPM + ephedrine.

    Cannot go wrong with Launch or Fierce. Perhaps I am a bit resistant to stimulants, but I would not say that Launch or Fierce are strong, just right, but not too strong. What I can tell you is that Fierce is known for giving people great pumps. Launch is also up there, but just a tiny bit less. Get the samples.

    I have never heard of this. I will have a look when I get home as I don't think it is sold in the UK.

    Connie kindly sent me a sample pack. I tested it on it's own without any caffeine alongside it and didn't get much from it despite using four capsules lol. I should have combined it with something else so it is my own fault, I just wanted to judge strength.

    The last two capsules broke up transit, maybe I should snort the powder and see if it helps.
