Caffeine-wise, it's about the equivalent of 4 cups of coffee. In terms of brands, I would be the first to recommend against using Hyde (and my doctor would agree- she said not to take it). If you find that you can't go to sleep at night if you took preworkout in the morning, decrease your amount.

I'd start at a half scoop for your first few tries and then up to a full scoop, mixed with at least 12oz water.

I guess my favorite is Bang because they have so many flavors if you buy the cans, but they also sell a powder version. I do switch around because I feel like I get used to them after a month or so. I've tried C4, Bang, Alpha Gx7, and I don't really have a preference. I do take preworkout because I like the way it makes me feel! I'm much more energetic and I get a great pump going, and it helps me get into the angry lifting groove where all my focus is on my music and the weights. If you like taking them, by all means continue, but they aren't a magic ingredient like a lot of bodybuilding sites make them out to be. Foods high in protein will be high in BCAAs like cheese, soybeans, beef, chicken, pork, nuts, seeds, fish, seafood, and beans. They have a lot of purported benefits but it's honestly a money grab from supplement companies.

You really don't need BCAAs if you eat a healthy and varied diet. I even use them! (Under the recommendation and supervision of my doctor). Use supplements - just be as informed and careful as possible. I just want to say that I’m not trying to shame anyone for the choices they make. Posting negative comments about supplements has gotten me a lot of downvotes before. Here are some FDA tips for using supplements, please read if you use or plan to use supplements! Before using them, talk with a doctor if possible, research extensively, reach out to companies and ask for independent testing results. And the FDA failed to recall over half of the products found to have medications in them, which is pretty outrageous.īe a very careful consumer of any supplements. A common offender for workout supplements was to include steroids or steroid-like ingredients. With workout supplements, there is a risk of unknowingly ingesting medications. This creates inherent safety risks for consumers as companies don’t have to have their products independently tested for safety. The supplement industry in the US is very unregulated and the FDA is not authorized to review products for safety and effectiveness before they are marketed.

I haven’t ever used a pre-workout but I just wanted to bring up risks for supplements that should be considered (assuming you’re in the US).
