    I like N.O.-Xplode. I've been using it for years. Started with the original. Then they came out with "NT" and I didn't like that. But the newest stuff is pretty good. I also use Cellmass (creatine) with it. I like the combo for building muscle.

    C4 5 calories a scoop and plenty of energy. Berry Blast is a good flavor

    I make my own. Take a 200mg caffeine pill. Mix 10 oz water with 1 tsp l-glutamine, 5g creatine and a little bit of gatorade powder.

    I'm still using C4 Blue Raspberry as a replacement for the massive amounts of energy drinks I used to consume. However, as a legit PWO, in my opinion, it's kind of hard to beat MusclePharm Assault. Some have tested better, but I have no experience with those.

    I don't use pre-workout supplements, but looking at C4 most are just creatine, caffeine, l-arganine, vitamin c and vitamin B12. I do use a fitness powder post-workout to recover electrolytes and energy though [it has everything that C4 has besides the creatine and l-arganine] and it's a lot cheaper [10 servings for $2].

    I use to take pre-workout, then resorted to coffee. Now? Nothing really, just a good meal 2 hrs prior to working out. I'll be honest, that stuff plays mental games on you. You'll find that when you don't take it, you feel like you can't make it but not true, just mind games. Now I'm doing fine with nothing but fuel from a good meal.

    AGREED!! (Though, before anyone notices, I think you have dropped a little strawberry jam from your morning toast down your top. I'm sure if you change quickly no-one will be any the wiser!)
