I've read all the other posts and threads, but I cant find any sort of consistant answers. I know a lot of this has to due with how certain peoples bodies react differently than others when dealing with supplements, but can anyone recommend a truly strong pre-workout supplement that is at least chemically stronger than the rest? I've taken no xplode, but it just wasnt enough energy and the pump wasnt that great. So then i took nano vapor, and had a lot more energy and focus, and a pretty good pump, but I just want something to take it to another level. Any recommendations?

mmmm That makes no sense why would you get ripped off. People always double up on there scoops just to get the desired amount of caffeine in there pre workout. meaning that there acualy getting 20 workouts instead of 40. With 400mg in n.o loaded you do not have to double up leaving you with 45 workouts. It seems more economical to me.

Good product- Axis Hemodraulix; I combine with White Flood or Superpump 250 as well as Beta-Alanine.

Ok, but when you double the dose on other products, you always get double/ triple the ingredients, meaning double the creatine, double the arginine, double the b vitamins etc etc with still under 400mg of caffeine, so IMO others are superior and cheaper... ex. White flood, 2 scoops, 50 servings, awesome profile, less caffeine at 36 bucks... again JMO

GNC's products have always been high quality, just not necessarily dosed at the right levels. Everything in the AMP line is of the highest potency and quality. No one can deny that.
Lets be honest, its the stimulants in all preworkouts that require the increased dosage. So why not take out the middle man, put all the caffeine in one scoop along with the effective dosages of Creatine, Arginine, Beta Alanine, MCT's etc? Ive had customers getting quality pumps and energy from half a scoop. If you were to do that then you would have 90 servings. All for $39.99. Thats a hell of a deal.
Try it and I bet you will love it. It might not work for everyone, but for 40 bucks its worth a shot, you might be pleasantly suprised.Yes, I work at GNC.

So when you double/triple dose on all those products and you are getting double/triple of the ingredients, dont you think thats over doing it? Who needs 10g of creatine and 12g of arginine(obviously an estimate) pre-workout really? Caffeine is the only thing that needs to be increased and theres no point burning through those scoops for that.

Not on some things, others yes it's over doing it... but why is caffeine the only thing that needs to be increased? As others have said, if you REALLY need that kick, go buy some caffeine pills or powder and do it that way, much much cheaper... I don't but preWO's for the caffeine, and too much of it isn't good for ya, but yes it's nice to have a little kick 100-200mg is PLENTY for me, so 400mg would just be over the top IMO

Dark Rage is ridiculous and only one scoop is needed but it tastes like crap. It's the worst-tasting supplement I've ever tried. That said, I only tried the fruit punch flavor. My friend says his cola fizz was good.

Because caffeine is the only ingredient listed that you will build a tolerance to, which is why every ends up using a bigger serving. You don't need higher doses of aminos or creatine to feel the desired effect like you do stimulants.
100-200mg may be plenty for some but I know alot of people, as Im sure you do to, that cant train without their preworkout drinks. Ive actually encountered people who take 4 scoops of NOXplode or 3 scoops of SuperPump. 400mg may be too much for some but forother it provides the perfect kick and taking half the serving (for those who have a low tolerance) it would easily suffice.
I will agree with you though that it be more economical just to buy bulk caffeine to add but that would taste horrible and your average supplement junkie wouldnt even think of that. To the majority of people a higher dose=stronger supplement.Yes, I work at GNC.
