Favorite Preworkout (higher stim)?

Looking for something that is relatively higher stim, but nothing overkill --- preferably no more than 370 mg caffeine and is without any DMHA/DMAA, but open to any/all suggestions that have good performance ingredients and some great energy.
 
Juice Daddy or Muscle Addiction Pump Addict Ultra Hardcore would fit the bill for higher stim pre without DMAA/DMHA.
 
If you want a capsule product, VasoForce Rush:

If you want a powder, I'd say Pump Addict Ultra Hardcore by Muscle Addiction:

6? As in 75 mg at a time? Please don’t recommend this as it’s very irresponsible
 
75 is not much ephedrine its like taking 3 of the old 2 ways.eveyone used this stack 20 years ago.if 6 is too much take 4 then geez dude.
I add 1/2 a tab of Bronkaid 12.5 mg to a preworkout and that's more than enough for me :)
75mg :eek: oh NO not me.
 
Umm...do you really need me to explain why making a product with 650mg of caffeine in it per serving is stupid?
If someone really needs 650mg of caffeine to walk into a gym and have a good workout I would reconsider their diet, sleep, and external factors as to why they need that much. Blows my mind

650 mg of caffeine would have most people feeling super shitty. Completely counter productive.
 
Will definitely try this out. I’ve never been a fan of high caffeine. So this is perfect for me. Would’ve prefer if there wasn’t taurine in it but I still like taurine either way.
Excited for you to try it! Curious though, what don’t you like about taurine?

For me personally I actually like taurine, just don’t really care for it being in my pre. Reason being I notice my body gets too relax and eventually getting that tired feeling. It doesn’t effect the results I’m getting at the gym and I’m still doing the weight that I’m sapose to be doing, so I’m not too bother by taurine since it doesn’t hurt my results. I actually dose my taurine before I sleep and notice good sleep from it. And that’s the reason being why I like taurine in general.

That sounds more like the effects of 200mg or more of L-Theanine which I'm NOT a fan of
in pre's.

Studies are generally done with a ratio roughly 2:1 theanine to caffeine - and have shown great benefits - while many of these things are subjective and there is a significant potential many of our community have a tad more tolerance to stims than your average person. But, the 225mg caffeine, plus the 200mg dynamite, plus the 100mg dicaffeine malate should offer quite a bit of kick to more than compensate for any sedative effects and should work quite synergistically for focus, mood, blood flow (yes, even blood flow - as theanine may help mitigate some of the vasoconstriction effects of caffeine), etc.

I know what the studies say BUT for me more than 100mg of L-Theanine keeps me from
feeling the stimulants and focus ingredients the way I should and that's coming from someone
who doesn't touch caffeine or stimulants anytime of the day except for a pre workout at 4 or 5 a.m.
when I want to FEEL my PW.
 
Just made a yummy combo :
Pineapple nitraflex + blueberry lemonade jeckyll. Both current formulas (jeckyll kinda gross on its own imo)

I agree. I think Theanine has great potential and the studies are awesome on it; but there are just some that it seems to blunt the stims too much for. We use it ourselves in stuff and its like that unfortunate circumstance where great data, many love it, but it there are a few people that won't like it bc of.

In regards to the stims you mentioned in the post I quoted, if you're selling Dynamite now, I need to get a PO in with you :ROFLMAO:

I do that all the time I mix pre's usually at 1/2 doses being careful not to overlap certain ingredients
and I actually make PW work better for me by doing that especially if a formula has 200mg of L-Theanine
so now it's 100 plus the higher stimulant PW at 1/2 the dose. I'm NOT the Guerilla Chemist but I know how
to mix my stims :D

Ya I have BA, theanine, and citrulline powder straight. I mostly only use the BA but I'll use some theanine again for u. Edit: also I fucked up, it's Jekyll not Hyde, which isn't a stim

I haven’t tried that but the latest release of Specimen Yo-Yo is awesome! Bought it this winter and it’s almost a “special occasion” pre now
 
Looking forward in trying the new and improved version!
Thanks, bro! The new formula is loaded to the tits. The ball is rolling with the manufacturer having gotten quotes back for both JD and Daft Pump so I hope to have an ETA on product completion sometime next week. It's not exactly around the corner but anticipate a nice mid Summer 2021 release :)
 
I just purchased one called Batch 27 off amazon a week ago and it works well for me. I only do a half scoop, so there are a total of 40 servings. It's a good deal and the ingredients are on point. Reminds me of stronger ones I used to take a decade ago.

Since I am on cycle right now I am keeping caffeine down or I would use a full scoop. It does give you that tingling sensation, but I actually like that - it lets me know it's time to start lifting 💪
