    cellucor c4 fruit punch, does not make you jittery and tastes great

    I just tried this flavor and it is a nice change to Blue Razz.

    I'm on an EC stack to cut the last few % to 10%. No way in hell I'll take it before an HIIT session and it really shouldn't be thought of as a PWO. I do not suggest anyone take an EC stack. Im just experimenting with it.

    As far as PWO's, I've typically avoided them. I do notice that the focus can help my form and reps, but, perhaps its all psychological. I rarely take them, so, I have no bias in favor. When I do take it its usually my friend's C4 and perhaps its the competition (i usually lift solo) that makes me perform better (highly likely).

    Im not a fan of PWO's for cardio and I'd save PWO's for difficult training days at max intensities (weights, NOT cardio)

    Putting additional stress on your heart is not the wisest idea and these companies are notorious for putting all sorts of weird crap in there (DMAA for example)

    ETA: I have no recommendation because the things I take could probably kill you if you weren't in the same condition as me and doing the same style of training.

    If I am headed for the gym so early it is still dark I need to take a huge cup of willpower, honestly I cannot get out of bed without it. After work though that's different, willpower alone is not enough to get me there and get me through, so I get the boss to administer one big kick up the backside. On arrival, if I am still a bit sluggish when I get to the gym staff there are more than happy to give me a second dose. Be careful though, because 2 kick up the backsides mixed with the adrenaline rush of a 10 minute cardio warm up, may cause the user to enter beast mode and start lifting weights they had previously only dreamed of.
    Post workout, now that's my favourite topic, I always go for "calories" cannot seem to end the day without some, in fact I think I may be a little addicted :-)
