At first I wasn't going to apply for this cause I already have some PWO on hand but then I remembered that N.O. Xplode was the first Pre-Workout I ever tried. Right when I started to get into lifting a couple of my buddies were all about it and let me try some... It then became the first Pre-Workout I ever purchased. Since then I have tried many different kinds of PWO's, highly concentrated, stim heavy, stim free, pump focused... you name it and few come close to what I got out of N.O Xplode. I did get the chance to try version 2.0 but only once or twice so I wasn't able to fully assess it. Im interested to see how it compares to what I remember from the original. I have yet to try Hyper Fx but id like to. It has some great reviews in the bb.com store, and a nice profile.
My Ideal Pre-Workout:
Obviously when you take a Pre-workout its not going to take over and lift the weights for you. A good PWO will provide clean energy and focus that will help push yourself harder. I don't consider myself a stim junkie, but stimulants definitely help boost you thru tough workouts. They can also hurt your workouts too if you over do it. I think too much caffeine in a PWO can cause me to crash before im able to finish. My ideal PWO would have the perfect amount to give you that boost , without leaving you jittery and crashing. I like ingredients that provide natural energy such as B vitamins. I usually try to get a good Pre-Workout meal in and B vitamins will help your body metabolize that meal and use it for energy. Creatine is a plus, especially a blend. I also like a pump blend consisting of arginine and citruline. The combination of creatine, arginine and citruline is great to keep your muscles full and delivery a nice pump. The effects of Beta-Alanine have been researched and proven to help so that's got to be in there.
Gettin Hype:
I don't usually sit and watch videos of guys lifting that are way stronger than me. Not that it wouldn't motivate me but I try to find my motivation from within. I like to think of where I want to be... where I can be... where I am going to be. I try to channel some of my anger and frustrations and take it out on the weights. I usually blast some up tempo hip hop or metal in my car on the way to the gym to get my adrenaline going. The right PWO and the right mind state will have me ready to kill the weights once I get to the gym.
Making an app was the easy part... choosing the flavors if I get picked will be the hard part, especially with all the high ratings
