Preworkout supplements?

It's not a bad one, but their higher end one (Platinum Pre-) is better. That being said, your body has a tendency to adapt quickly to the specific blend of ingredients used in pre-workouts, so finding just one that you like isn't enough. You have to find like 4 or 5 good ones that work for you and cycle between them as needed.

Depending on whether you prefer one with or without creatine, my recommendations for ones that have worked great for me are:

*WITHOUT CREATINE
-Optimum Nutrition Platinum PRE-
-BSN HyperFX
-GNC Ravage (if you can stand the taste, which is awful)
-Optimum Nutrition AmiNO

*WITH CREATINE
-Musclepharm Assault
-Cellucor C4
-Bodybuilding.com SCREAM
-Driven Sports Craze

*ONES I'VE TRIED THAT SUCK (for me anyway)
-ProMera Beta-Cret
-GNC Amplified Muscle Igniter 4x
-Muscletech NaNo Vapor
-BSN NO Explode 2.0
-BPI 1MR

Never heard of Amino Energy. Caffeine is one of the best supplements to take before working out (lifting or cardio). Increased focus and boosts energy. If you want something more fancy or geared toward weight training a pre work out supplement with caffeine, creatine and some amino acids would be good ( products like N.O. Xplode or C4). They are pretty tasty too but pricey. Just make sure enough aren't too sensitive to caffeine since these products usually have a decent amount in them.

Good luck!

Uh! I took a sample one from GNC and it made my feel very icky!!! I felt shaky, couldn't eat breakfast nor lunch, forced myself to eat dinner. Felt like my heart was pounding super fast and I had kottonmouth. My only suggestion is if its your first time trying something, maybe try a half dose?? Just my suggestion from my experience. Also, I usually dont have much caffeine in my diet. Just a cup of coffee in the mornings is about all the caffeine I get so maybe that is why I had such a bad experience.???

has anyone taken Amino Energy? it was recomended to me by a co worker. I need a pre workout supplement that'll give me the energy boost I need(working two jobs, 4AM shifts is killing my energy/workout motivation)

appreciate it

I have tried it and I like it. I do not use the 2 scoops I found it too be too much but as a previous poster said it will depend on your body. The watermelon one has a good flavour

Have you used the Muscle Assault? My husband just bought it. He used to use NO-Ex but the new formula makes his face itch. lol Muscle had great reviews and wanted to give it a try. THanks.
