Does anyone have any good suggestions for a pre-workout supplement? I need a bit more energy but would rather get some sort of supplement than have a latte or energy drink.

    BSN is the maker - it's called No-Explode....awesome stuff. I've also tried Jacked 3D and it is okay also.

    Like energy drinks, all pre workouts just have stimulants. Attitude is the best energy booster.

    I have a honey stick, just a little natural sugar to get me going.

    If you are working out in the early morning (pre-breakfast), you may need some energy to complete your workout. I drink a fitness shake (whey/soy protein + water) and eat some fruit about 30 mins before my workout. Hope this helps.

    have to agree FOOD....protein and carbs before and after work out you can still watch the calories with a pre and post workout snack

    Can't stand NO-Explode! Tastes like crap and doesn't mix well, and you aren't supposed to use a shaker for it either. I chucked a whole tub after 2 tries. I switched to Purple Wraath, mixes and taste much better.

    But like anything you need to try it for yourself.

    Clearly you are going something wrong, NO-Explode dissolves instantly and actually tastes ok compared with others on the market. Personally the only one that worked for me was Superpump Max.

    Cellucor - C4 with N03
    Stuff gets me pumped!! Tastes great too!

    I use the same. Made a big difference, even more so when I started eating at a larger deficit.

    C4 is great. Has anyone tried Cellucor N0? Would like to swich to this but I'm baffled because it's twice the price of C4 and from what I understand its basically C4 sans creatine.

    BSN is the maker - it's called No-Explode....awesome stuff. I've also tried Jacked 3D and it is okay also.


    Can't stand NO-Explode! Tastes like crap and doesn't mix well, and you aren't supposed to use a shaker for it either. I chucked a whole tub after 2 tries. I switched to Purple Wraath, mixes and taste much better.

    But like anything you need to try it for yourself.
    High five! Hate NO-Xplode, I don't remember which flavour I had, but if was just puke-ish. I was using it anyway cause I hate wasting stuff, but sheesh, how happy I was when I accidentally left the tube opened on a humid day and it all went crap. C4 tastes sooo much better.

    I like C4 and generally found White Flood for some reason stacked with anything else prevents stomach aches from too much caffeine.

    Peanuts provide you with as much energy as a redbull. Also apples, its the natural sugar that gets you energized. Both are light on the stomach as well.

    The energy supplements are no good. I've tried N-O explode and had a terrible crash in the middle of my work out!

    Does anyone have any good suggestions for a pre-workout supplement? I need a bit more energy but would rather get some sort of supplement than have a latte or energy drink.

    Like energy drinks, all pre workouts just have stimulants. Attitude is the best energy booster.

    C4 - Good has a creatine HCl in it so bonus
    SuperPump - Good makes my face tingle in a good way
    Assualt - Ok has creatine Monohydrate in so still a bonus
    No xplode - Good, but you cant shake it, its "delivery" system, is carbonated so you have to stir it, and that was a pain to me
    1 MR - Wasnt bad wasnt great, i felt awake but not really a boost
    Epic - didnt do anything for me, but not to say it wouldnt for you.

    My favorite though is SuperPump pink lemonade.
