I took Pre-Workout and Intra-Workout, The first week, I took them, I only lost 1 pound a week. I think I should stop taking them for now. Without them, I lost around 5 to 6 pounds a week. I'm leaning towards to stop taking them. Give me your thoughts.

    They are unnecessary and potentially harmful for individuals who are overweight, have a heart condition, or who experience anxiety.

    So at best they might give you a small boost in the gym, at worst they can land you in the hospital with a heart attack or panic attack.


    They shouldn't affect your weight loss though.

    Do they have any calories in them? If not, they won't have affected FAT loss but adding any different supplement or food could change water retention.

    In others, I won't be taking them for a LOOONG Time. It's too harmful for me.

    If you're losing 5-6 lbs per week,

    1. that's likely mostly water
    2. that's not sustainable
    3. If you do sustain it, you'll likely start experiencing undesirable side effects. Hair loss, fatigue, etc.
