I dont think I have tried any pre work out ... MO Xplode, C4, Muscle Pharm Assualt, or Super Pump that I would say "WOW this is delicious" ... I just ended up with the NO Xplode because they were selling it on Woot.com two containers for 19.99 and its not the worst one I ever tasted I just don't like how you are supposed to stir it and not shake it because of the delivery system.0

No Xplode makes me feel like a crack head all jittery.0 -
I take it both pre and post workout because I can insure my muscles aren't getting burnt from the workout but also add more replenishment thereafter!0
