Ultima Dragon 09/15/18 10:05:47 AM #7:	I take a pre-workout (Transparent Labs BULK) before working out. But to be fair, I'm pretty sure the jury is out as to just how helpful the ingredients in most pre-workouts are.. if they are at all. I've just taken one for such a long time now, it's basically a habit. If the cost is low I don't mind 'em. The main thing you would notice would be the stimulants/caffeine, so plain black coffee is the cheapest alternative by far. You really don't need anything else. Then just lift properly and eat right. --- "We know things can move faster than the speed of light because liberal tears are on the ground before something offensive even happens" - Coffeebeanz <cite>Ultima Dragon posted [p:908798201] in Do you tak...

Lightwarrior11 09/16/18 6:24:13 AM #19:	Yes. Back when I used to do high-volume powerlifting-based workouts in a gym, I would take a homebrewed preworkout I packed in capsules and brought with me in my backpack. Non-active, supporting ingredients were drank from a blender bottle before leaving for the gym on my mountain bike. The main active ingredients in the pills were caffeine anhydrous+DMAA (pill #1) and PEA+Hordenine (pill #2). IIRC, I would do my cardio, take pill #1, stretch for ~20mins, then take pill #2 and start my lifting workout. Result was major improvement in the quality of my lifts, sustained motivation, and euphoria. Great workouts. My workouts these days are shorter and mix in more cardio + HIIT. I personally don't like taking any stimulants before doing that kind of exercise. --- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd0T6SjHejw <cite>Lightwarrior11 posted [p:908848553] in Do you tak...
