I'm asking out of curiosity here, not to make fun...
Is the powder supposed to help you get bigger muscles or lose weight?0 -

I've never taken a pre-workout. Is it just for lifting? Or do you take it for workouts including cardio?0

Some of the less powerful ones are good for cardio, but the more powerful ones can actually make your heart beat faster so they're not advised for cardio.
I think quite a few people use C4 for cardio, but only 1 scoop.

1st, you DO NOT need a pre-workout.
If your diet & nutrition is on point somewhat, that should be more than sufficient to fuel your workout.
Having said that, I believe a lot of the ... *kitten* .... you buy at GNC is trash, it's loaded with fillers, C4 for example, is loaded with garbage.
Personally, I use: http://www.citadelnutrition.com/store/supplements/tier-1-plus
No jitteryness, all science based and proven ingredients with true backing references on their website.

Pro labs 200mg caffein pill. All I ever need and save a lot of cash. I tried plenty of preworkouts, and they are mostly all just filled with cheap ingredients at clinically ineffective dosages, make crazy marketing claims, cost $5.00 to manufacture and charge you $30.00-60.00...0

For Cardio which I do pre breakfast ..Rocket Fuel Coffee..which you can purchase in Tesco (UK)1

Monster or Rock Star (0 cal)0

I just got NXT Level from musclebox and have to say 1 scoop and sipping on a Monster absolute zero had been making a difference. And no I don't see sounds

c4 if defineatly a personal favorite. so is Mr. Hyde or Dr. Jekyll.
hyde is more of the hott tingles like C4, and jekyll does't have the tingles but give you a really goo energy boost.0 -
If you decide on C4, you may want to start out with half of what it tells you on the label. I must be very sensitive to this product because my heart was racing and I hadn't even started working out yet. Just test it out slowly.0

C4 is quite a weak PWO, you must have a low caffeine tolerance ;p0 -

Rum and coke. Otherwise I just drink water to make sure I am well hydrated. Sorry, not much help.0

There is no best, different people are different, and different drinks are different, so different people respond differently to the different stims.
Try a few and see what you think.
Personally -
C4 did nothing for me.
BSN's Hyper and ON's gold standard pre... I like them both.
Caffeine is always a good option.0 -

Besides the fact that, that is just stupid to take that much caffeine in one sitting... and besides the fact that if what you are saying is true then you are buying garbage preworkout but hey do you...if you really need THAT much stimulant to lift then that's just sad.
