I was wondering how long should you use a pre workout supplement for? I know some people say to cycle it for a month or so?

You'll get different answers...Originally Posted by fresh2def100
A) Every month or so...or after a tub take a couple weeks - month off.
B) Whenever you have to start taking a lot more than the recommended doses, it's time to take a break. Your body will let you know.--- Blankety Blank Blank ---

there are no set rules. Listen to your body and make sure to always be conscious of what it tells you

I only use Pre WO drinks if I am dragging that day and need a little pickup. I would rather spend my money on something like an intra workout BCAA product.

Its a personal preference. But ive been on perWo for 3 years all different brands through out the years and I never needed to take the max dosage ever and they still work great for me. Example im only taking 2 scoops jack3d and always have. Max dosage is 3 scoops. SP Max im on 1 scoop, 1MR 1 scoop, etc...

It really depends on your tolerance and frequency of use. Obviously, if you are needing more scoops for each workout or you get bad crashes then you should consider taking a break. Although in my own experience I have been using a pre-workout for the past 6-7months. With that said, in that time frame I have only used up 2 tubs of n.o xplode, and working on finishing a tub of hemo rage. I usually train on a empty stomach and only took a prewo at a minimum dosage, 2-3 times a week with 2-3days rest in between. I haven't noticed a tolerance yet.

I've been on NO xplode for 2.5 years. I only take it on workout days, but I don't cycle off.

good advice. also depends on how often you workout. if you workout 5x a week, u will probably build up a tolerance to stims and would need to take a few weeks off from it to give your adrenals a break. dont want to burn them out
