so i havent bought any supp besides whey and vit-c for well over a year and im unsure what is "good" these days in the supp world. im getting into the nitty-gritty of my cut and im finding i really need something for energy in the gym. Ive tried a few stim supp sample packets including Fyre, ReDuction, Supercharge, and Adipo-X. they have all gave me a nice boost and just felt fired up, just what i needed. Now ive tried drinking straight coffee pre-workout and it just doesnt have the same effect. What are some solid products for energy, if it has a NO product built in i'll also consider that.

Why not? A lot of "NO" products have a great blend of stimulants, blood volumizers and nootropics that a plain stimulant pill won't have. I love getting increased pumps, but hey to each his own.
If you want straight stim goodness + increased focus try APS Phenadrine. It's absolutely top notch and is pretty much exactly what you're looking for.★cVc★

well i did the straight caffeine route before and the energy wasnt as "intense" as the stim samples i tried. and with the stims i felt "hotter" (temp) and more fired up. Thermoloid looks like a good deal, buy 2 get 1 free and the blend looks good and its only $40 and has much more than just caffeine?

I would drink white flood on my way to school cuz i have advanced pe which is strictly weight training and cardio and by the time I walked out of the locker room to go lift i was laughing and ppl would be like wtf is wrong with you and jumping off the walls! It prob wasnt the smarters idea since i was barely 16 but i still didnt have any side effects except i wanted to lift until i passed out lol

Ted, I really noticed Intrabolic from Athletic Edge Nutrition. Seriously, both me and my training partner got a much better workout. We both got a lot stronger and saw measurable muscle gains. We're probably older than you so hey if it works for us it should for you. The only problem I had was I was growing too fast. My muscles grew in size and strength but my ligaments and tendons didn't catch up as fast. So I had to back off. This was before some surgery so I'm on the mend. I'm already set to buy more , but I'd definitely go with the Citrus Ice, I haven't heard much good about the taste of the apple. Rumor has it that they are coming out with a new flavor soon! Hope this helps!

yeah im aware of white flood being a NO product. im really torn between getting a strictly energy vs a NO/energy product. cost is the main issue and its looking like the energy/stim only products will be the best bang for my buck. but im very strongly considering some SP 250 or WF. im hella indesicive so that isnt helping either lol

i know AEN is geting good feedback on here so im def gonna look into their products. would buying bulk caffeine, argininne, beta alanine, etc and just mixing them myself be just as effective as many of the higher priced blends offered? im just saying this is because most of the products im looking at are basically those three ingredients plus maybe some carnintine and some other things.

I am sure that Jack3d would be the best option for you. Jack3d will get you wired for sure. And it has NO in it for good pumps.

Yeah, IntrAbolic is nothing like that, it's hydrolyzed whey protein(70-80% di-and tripeptides), free-form amino-acids, beta-alanine and electrolytes and it's designed to be sipped on throughout your workout.
Our preWO product PreSurge is also WAY more than caffeine and arginine is a waste in terms of NO.
If you are just looking for a stim/buzz, I agree just stick with caffeine but if you are looking for a complex of strength increases/NO boosters and energy/focus, there's no comparison!
