I'm sure this question has been asked a million times, but I'm considering purchasing a pre workout mix and was wondering if anyone had a preference?

    You really don't need to waste your money on one.

    Either make your own (lots of hits on Google for this) or just have some caffeine. Carbs can also help. Personally I find that I work out best on an emptier stomach (weight lifting btw) as I Have better energy. But caffeinated tea helps boost that for me.

    If I work out in the moring, I just have a piece of fruit.

    In some cases (limited cases i agree) people do need a PWO - so before coming up with the standard not needed - eat instead I'd say to try to understand the logic behind OP's question?!

    I've used FRS in the past and it does help with sustaining my energy levels longer for cardio. I don't know how good it would be for weight training, as it doesn't have any protein.

    I usually grab some almonds or mixed nuts before, and then load up on protein after. I'm not sure if there's any science to back it up, but I feel like getting a bunch of fats or carbs before can kind of "trick" my body to using the protein after to repair muscle. So I can build muscle on a deficit.
