Pre Workout choice?

[SHaneA655]

narrowed my preworkout to jack3d and green magnitude. My conerns with jack3d is it has stimulants and i dont want to be up all night and I def dont want to have jitters etc. Not react well with alot caffeine. However, i like it because i dont think i will get as bloated off creatine and maintain strength etc.

I also like green magnitude. Looks very good but i think it has alot of creatine in it which would cause me to bloat alot?

Not sure which one i will go with. Also, does ALpha T2 cause stimulant feeling etc...o

 

[nattydisaster]

2 scoops of jack3d and 1 capsule alpha-T2 for me

Alpha-T2 will give you a CLEAN stimulant feeling. Not all jittery and crashing, just a nice feeling. Kinda hard to explain

Green Magnitude isn't a pre-workout product - it's a creatine product. These are completely different categories of products. If you're concerned about stimulants, there are some stim-free options for pre-workouts out there, or you could just opt for AAKG powder and beta-alanine if you want to go real basic.

What time do you workout? Jack3d is hands down my fav pre-workout, but I've been cycled off of it now for almost 4 weeks. I've been using AAKG powder (6g), but also taking Pink Magic, Prime and PowerFULL all pre-workout with it. My question, though, is because if you workout earlier in the day, it shouldn't be a problem at all. If you workout later, just start off with 1/2 a scoop and work your way up from there based on what you feel.

I workout at night now, too, and it sucks in that respect.

There are stim free products out there, though.

ALCAR (2grams) when I workout at night

 

[iForce Dave]

i take maximize v2 or hemavol, or both

if im training at night i usually do hemavol, since its non -stim

Honestly here are my three top choices. You will notice I stopped relying on propriety blend formulas because you have no clue what you are getting from active ingredients to even how much stimulants/caffeine are you consuming.



1.UP-LIFT which does not have a propriety blend formula. It contains no caffeine.
Serving Size 2 Scoops(22g)
Servings Per Container 15


Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate 3.5g
L-Alanine 3g
Betaine HCL 2g
Glycine 2g
L-Tyrosine 1.5g
L-Citrulline 1.15g
L-Histidine HCl 1g
Beta Alanine 1g
Golden Root Extract 150mg
American Ginseng, Root 100mg
L-Carnosine 50 mg


2. Bulldozer XL5000 which does not have a propriety blend either. It has 100mg Caffeine per serving, for many people this is not enough to cause insomnia or effect sleeping while for others who are sensitive then it might impact them heavily. I am currently on this one and I love it, I am glad I converted.

Serving Size 1 Scoops(15.3g)
Servings Per Container 30

Leucine 1250 mg
isoleucine 625 mg
valine 625 mg
Creatine Monohydrate 2000 mg

Carnitine-L-Tartrate 500 mg
Dextrose 3000 mg
N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine 200 mg
Caffiene Anhydrous 100 mg
Vinpocetine 10 mg

3. CGT-10. This is a basic formula in which you can add to it whatever you like. This is the cheapest formula, and the most basic.

Serving Size2Rounded Teaspoons(20g)
Servings Per Container

Creatine Monohydrate 5g
L-Glutamine 3g
Taurine 2g

 

[Rodja]

1.5g ALCAR
1 Thermogum
15-20g BCAAs (throughout training)

 

[nattydisaster]

Damn if I used BCAA's like that I would have to sell my car for more BCAAs lol

Or maybe thats just because I only use the instantized ones

That's part of it. I don't mind a little chalky taste to leave some extra room in my account.

 

[v1hyp]

Buzz, Beta-A & MG Powder by Trueprotein!!

 

[SwolenONE]

Ultima, Clout, C-Bol, Body Octane

Pick one a run with it!

C-Bol with PeptoPro such as maximum absorption protein is full of win

 

[poison]

ASGT is medium, stim-wise, but very smooth, no jitters. It also has nice anti-estrogenic properties, to put you in the mood (to smash PR's ), and good endurance.

If you're deadset against stims, try Clout, decaf Rag, or Cre02.

 

[PrepNwa23]

Ultima for the win if you don't want any stims and non prop blend.

 

[Pipes]

After watching bigger faster stronger I stay away from propietary blends at all costs. lol

Word.


To the O.P., how about a meal pre-workout? 1 cup oats w/ a drizzle of honey and 6 hard boiled eggs about 1.5 - 2 hours pre-workout is my energy. I used to be into supps, but once I really pushed the whole food ideology...night and day.

 

[schwellington]

my preworkout- 2 scoops asgt 1 scoop maximize= GREATNESS

 

[Cooky32]

I have been trying some samples. I liked NAPALM, and 1M.R. Today I used 4 ultra prime caps, by ALRI, and 1 packet slingshot watermelon. Sick pump. Slingshot has 20gm waximaize in it. I like DYMATIZE Expand extreme pump. I would like to try MESOMORPH too. ASGT is another one on my list to try.
