Since I have dropped my calories to cut fat and cut out alot of carbs, my energy in the morning for my workouts is low. I am still pushing more wieght than ever but I am wiped out during my work out. I am taking liquid B12 which helps but I know there are many products out there. Back in the day i used Agent Orange I think is what it was called. I would have mind blowing workouts. Any suggestions?

EAT.
Get some damn carbs in your system an hour or so prior! You will burn up those carbs by kicking ass in the gym.
Personally you shouldn't be cutting calories too low to where it's effecting energy anyway to lose fat.
Do it by eating CLEAN but EATING and rocking out cardio daily. Get an attitude about it and work your ass off. Cutting out food will cost you more muscle than fat. It's a tail spin because after you'll want to gain muscle.Blog:

White Flood is a good product to consider using...but I found that the energy rush wore off after about 2 weeks of usage. I would highly reccomend that you take a look at Animal Pump. In my opinion, it is the best product going and there is no crash post workout. you won't be sorry that you looked into it. good luck in your search!Team Iron Horse Powerlifting - Sponsored by Genomyx

if u are already drinking half a pot of coffee (assuming 3 cups @ 60-80mg per cup) you area already ingesting a pretty good amount of caffeine
liquid b12 is a good addition, i'm a big fan of b-vitamins for energy
perhaps you could look into something non-stim like body-forge or stim-free ragnarok, i wouldnt suggest more caffieine if you are already enjoying coffee preworkoutGaspari Nutrition Rep and Overall BAMF

IMO, White Flood is a great pump product, but if you are looking for some great energy I would suggest Core ZAP. It will give you an amazing boost of energy without the jittery, hyped up feeling. We have been getting a lot of great feedback with its thermogenic and cognitive effects as well. Can't beat sustained energy without the crash! With the caffeine and stim products in ZAP, you won't need the coffee either.

I know you said B-12, but if its not Methylcobalamin, I'd look into getting that and dosing up to 15mg a day.
Other energy ideas are stims of course, but it sounds like you are already drinking a fair amount of coffee.
Something like Body Octane would do you well for energy minus the caffeine.NSCA-CSCS and CPT
