    I see C4 is popular. Looked up the ingredients. It has vitamins and caffine with low doses of amino acids. I just make my own with those separate items and ones i like for a lot less...

    I took 2 scoops of C4 today... couldn't stop laughing for some reason. Pump was real good though, probably going to stick to 1 scoop though.. I am not made of money ;)

    On epiq power right now. I like it pretty good. Taste isn't the best but have gotten good results out of it. I usually get immune to them but haven't yet on this one. I wanna try jym next.

    It annoys me that Pre Workouts seem to agree with people lol. I wish I was having fun in the gym! The two that I brought I used for about three days and are still nearly full in my cupboard (about £40 worth). I hate the anxious comedown. I always feel great after a workout (without them), on these things I feel really down and tired. I'm fine with things like RedBull, Monster etc.

    The previous time I used 1.5 scoops.. didn't really do much. 1 scoops seemed to do a lot... it's pretty odd.

    You can always give me those PWO's ;)

    I ordered some jym, I'd heard it wasn't quite so "in your face" as some other pre's. Looking forward to trying it. Hoping for more focus and just a bit of an energy boost rather than feeling hulk like :p

    BPI sports 1.m.r is my favorite right now. No jitters, just focus.

    I'm using C4 - Watermelon. Tastes alright..until I worked out too hard awhile back and threw it up. Can't stand the taste now. I have to use just a little water and take it like a shot.

    I currently use the fruit punch in C4 and I like the taste. I'm happy with the energy it provides, but then again, I'm wondering if it's my mind placing tricks on me. I'm thinking of trying to go without it for a workout, but then again, will my mind play tricks on me...I guess I'm stuck taking it.

    C4 gets so much love on MFP. I wonder why... it's mediocre at best.

    Go with Controlled Labs White Flood Reborn, White Pump, or White Rapids

    C4 is a good low stim pre workout. I've only tried WF RB out of those you've listed and I agree it is much better than C4 although the pump isn't as good as C4 and there is less beta alanine. (little to no tingle) but it definitely has a better ingredient profile, tried it for the first time today. Got it on sale since they're clearing them out on Bodybuilding.com (Buy 1, get 1 Free) I'd recommend you take advantage of this deal if any of you are looking for a good pre workout with clean energy and no crash. I will admit of there being a bit of a jittery feeling after my workout today but it's calmed down now.

    For clarification what do you guys mean why you say "pump"?

    I've only tried C4 and Muscletech. I prefer the Muscletech. It's stronger. Good tingles. Makes me wanna do a little dance.
