I still don’t know what pre workout is and I don’t think I care enough to even bother looking up what it is and what it does. If its protein or something then why not just eat more meat.
Most brands of pre-workout range from 150 mg to 300 mg of caffeine per serving. This roughly translate as one to three cups of coffee. So that label promising increased energy, focus and performance is usually made possibly through a jolt of caffeine
Could drink lots of coffee instead. Probably cheaper. The gym phase has been great for grifts tbh.
I know you betas want to feel superior over the dumb iron pumpers, but pre workout can be much more than just caffeine. I don't know what's around anymore, but back in the day stuff like Jack3d were legit stimulants. I wouldn't be surprised if there's stuff out there with Chinese novel chems in them that are real stims.
probably and its still annoying how people go "dwammmaaa so special not like all other reddit" and then do this annoying nerd shit. We get it you read the back of the bottle & and you've never worked out more than three months that doesn't mean you need to shout on the internet about this stuff.
You want to look for PWOs with DMAA (it hasn't been banned everywhere).
I got a PWO named Crack from my slight dodgy independent supplement shop a few months ago.
The name is pretty accurate tbh.
Actually a known performance enhancer for events involving limit strength. Probably want to skip it before your century bike ride, perfectly fine if you’re hitting the weights.
I'd strongly agree. I took some caffeine pills and drank a cup of coffee before my nightly 40 minute run and 20 minutes in I started feeling super weird like my heart was "sputtering."
I instantly stopped and called someone to pick me up. I thought I was gonna die.
When I got home and laid down I remember just being in bed and feeling half asleep half awake while my chest pounded.
Drink some caffeine, taurine, and beta alanine and you basically have a pre-workout drink. This ignores the ones that have stuff like DMAA that they aren't supposed to include though.
DMAA is dope, nothing like having a comedown from your preworkout on the drive home. Almost every non-chain nutrition store has DMAA pre. The names change every couple of months, and they're labeled "not for human consumption" 😉
Can you write that like foods normal people know? Because I dont gaf about your industrial nutrient terms. Just eat some fucking self-hunted deer or Hog like a real human being. Tastes better, as well.
Preworkouts contain legal stimulants, including caffeine, to give more energy during a workout. Depending on the mix, it is either as effective or more effective as drinking coffee.
Why the fuck would I pay some slut for their OnlyFans when every goddamn second some Russian bimbo bots with massive titties try to add me. I can save a photo of one and then cum to it, just how a 25-year-old incel without a job who lives with their parents who didn't talk to a woman for months, and only sits at their gaming computer browsing Reddit.
Fucking idiots, that's who I'm REALLY talking about here. They cannot do ANYTHING. Cook? Why? I can buy McD's. Do some shit YOURSELF? Why? mom will do it but better. Basic hygiene? I don't care about long, crusty hair and acne. Why walk anywhere, when I can sit on my arse, and die from bedsores. Fuck them.
"She pushed through the discomfort and began her workout but soon “started to feel a heavy feeling in my chest and slight pain.” She ignored these symptoms as well, thinking they were “maybe anxiety or a bad panic attack"
Fucking what?? If you are feeling pain it is your body trying to tell you something, not a "panic attack"
Panic attack is a stupidly chosen term, just like "psychopathy", "stroke" etc. - however the official definition includes cases with psychosomatic symptoms and sometimes with no "panic" accompanying them at all.
Okay I have actually almost had this happen. I was 19 in the Air Force and hated waking up at ungodly hours to workout (I think it was 0400 start so 0330 wake to be dressed and in formation in time iirc) so anyways I got this genius idea that I could just take some of that blue c4 powder shit I saw all the meatheads taking and be good to go.
Long story short I didn’t read the label because that’s for pussies (and I’ve done actual drugs this shits legal so how dangerous can it be) , did like 3 scoops, and was having heart palpitations while trying to make it through group stretch. I thought I was gonna die, started panicking, and just barely avoided getting pulled out of formation for looking like a twitching junkie.
On a cold Friday afternoon, I had come home from school. I had been thinking of the gym all day. I was hungry, didn't have any lunch. In fact, I didn't eat because I spent the money. For the past month I was saving up for something. Something special which I bought at GNC. I was surprised they didn't ask for ID; I was pretty sure the cashier noticed how nervous I was. Anyways, my mom asked my how my day was when I got home, but I ignored her. I have more important things to do. I run to the bathroom and unpack my bag. In my school bag is a white plastic bag from GNC. I open the bag, first removing the receipt and flushing it down the toilet to get rid of the evidence. My heart was racing now. I unpack the creatine monster from the bag.
I wonder what people will be asking me when they see that I will be 50lbs heavier. Should I say I was just eating a lot? I remove the label from the tub and tear it into a thousand small pieces. I flush that down the toilet, too. It is time now. I run up to my room when my mom ask me what I am holding. I panic, sweat drips down my forehead and my teeth chatter. "Mom, it's just for a school project". "What project?" "I don't know mom I just started it!". A tear runs down my cheek. I run upstairs and open the creatine, scooping upservings into a clear water bottle. What have I gotten myself into? I fill it with water and drink it. There is no turning back now. The creatine monster is inside me now, it will control me. What should I do if I die? I cant let my family know about this.
I open the creatine tub and throw it all out the window; a white cloud of mysterious dust sparkles into the wind so graciously. I feel the substance taking control of me; I am now the monster. I walk downstairs, its time to work out; time to get big. Now I worry, I don't want to get too big; people will think I use steroids. I do use steroids. No I don't. Creatine. All I see is the weights now, I am almost downstairs when I hear "Do you want a cookie I just baked". I know I do not have time for this shit now. "No mom I do not want a cookie" I walk in the basement and drop to my knees before the weights, tears running down my cheeks. I turn to the right and look at myself in the mirror. Oh god, what have I done?

Pre-workout is such a scam. Do cocaine and roids like a man.

You can literally by a bottle of like 50 caffeine pills for 5 dollars. Preworkout is caffeine mixed with placebos

All that good shit is banned now. Can’t even get dianabol mixed in with your bb.com supplements these days.

I stopped taking it as soon as they banned old Animal Rage a decade ago. I’ve been chasing the feeing that shit has given me ever since…

Three cups of coffee is too much to drink at once. Just buy a bottle of NoDoz.
5 pepperouchau 2021-06-01
I've never managed to drink enough coffee at once to make me as jittery as a packet of pre-workout
This is not an endorsement

Basically powdered caffeine and some other shit, likely taurine and all that weird shit in energy drinks.

Caffeine pills are just as efficient. Personally I like cold instant coffee. Walmart's excellence brand is surprisingly good and affordable.

R-slurs who wrote this article dont even know the difference between pre-workout (powdered crack) and protein powder.
22 cassiorolex 2021-06-01
Yeah i was like since when did pre workout have protein
9 goodbehaviorsam 2021-06-01
I remember seeing a pre-workout jar of powder that had "NOW WITH PROTEIN" for sale at my gym before. Never bought it though.
It probably was groundup grasshoppers or something.

Your're supposed to smoke a pack of cigarettes during your morning routine to mellow out the feeling of panic that near-heart failure causes.

Slamming preworkout to offset your hangover before morning formation is a time honored military tradition.
