    Switching Pre-Workout Instead of Cycling?

    I've been using C4 for 2 months now and I need to cycle off for 2+ weeks now because it isn't doing much for me anymore. I want to know if I can just switch to a different pre-workout instead of cycling off C4. If I can do you guys have a good idea of a pre-workout that I could switch over to?

    Switch to Ultima or Hemavol if you really have the money.
    It would only be wise to switch over to a non-stim pre workout for those 2 weeks.
    If you like focus, Stack Hemavol + Clout.

    You should completely cycle off all stims during that period to help re-balance your tolerance, not switch to another stimmed pre

    If you want, look into a stim-free option such as BodyForge, Hemavol, Ultima, Body Octane, etc..

    Carbohydrates from foods provide energy.
    Ultima gives a nice non-stim energetic feeling. (It won't be as amazing like C4, but one of my favorites.)

    I've never lifted as high/calmly and perfectly controlled when on Ultima + Body Octane + 1/2 scoop of Hemavol.
    Just did it because of bored'm and testing purposes, got an amazing workout.

    30 servings, a bit overpriced but it was nice for trying.

    Look at the ingredients in what you are taking vs. what you are considering swapping with. If they are pretty much the same (which a lot of PW boosters are) then the new one won't do much either.
