Carbonated Water Enhances Your Pre-Workout Powder?

[ManWithNoName93]

This could be tasty. Mixing these two up here in a little bit before I hit the gym.



Inb4 Axis Labs comes out with carbonation pellets

Hey...don't tempt us!!

I really want to get this working, but I think the volume of powder I'm downing is screwing it up. Between 6-8g of CM, a few grams betaine, a few grams BA, a bit of agmatine and whatever else, I end up with a pretty sizeable scoop. Once I stir all that powder into the carbonated beverage, it seems to nucleate (fizz) like crazy, then I'm left with it flat.

Anyone else had this problem? Any good solution other than just adding more carbonated water?

Yes I have a soda stream and tried this a long time ago after reading about it, this idea is nothing new to say the least, lol for me this never worked, beside being messy it kills the carbonation. I also believe what most people are feeling is a placebo effect but to each there own While it may make the pre's taste better I don't believe it has any effect on how the pre's work

I was at the store anyways so I decided why not...



Will try in about 2 hours.

There were a lot of factors in my test today. I didn't get a good night's sleep so that's going to effect the workout. It was leg day and that is always going to drain energy levels. On the plus side I felt some BA tingles for the first time in 3 months so that's definitely something. The energy seemed to get into my system faster but it also seemed to eliminate faster where as normal water peaks then slowly eliminates. This is just my theory in what happened and it could very well just be that squats drained me and I was dead. Will do some more testing!

Try adding more carbonated water and let it sit for a minutes with the shaker top closed

Leg day always drains my body, try it a few more times

Not sure what to think after the first try.

Did 1.5 scoops Katana with 6-8 ounces carbonated water and had a pretty good, but average workout.

Katana always treats me right so I don't know if it was that, or a combination of both but I'll give it another go tomorrow.

Maybe more carbonated drink?

6 to 8 ounces is perfect. Try it again tomorrow

I'm also noticing zero crash with carbonated water vs tap water, strange but true

[dago85]

[TheIronAsylum]

[TheFugitive]

It may work in his head, lol doesnt work for me, but if he says its true it must I think the bubbles have gone to his head

[dtrain13]

Just add a little but. But cap on real quick let the air slowly hit it so it's use to it then use the rest of the powder shake and then let the air out and drink? That works for me

I agree. If you feel it works then, hey, more power to you! Use it and exploit it! Personally, I have tried it and just made a mess with no benefit haha.

Had to stop using it with my Superpump. It foams up the BCAAs like crazy. So hard to choke down

Take a pic, curious to see how all that powder breaks down

[sloop]

Tried 10 oz carbonated lemon water + 1 scoop White Heat today for a legstravaganza workout.

I THINK it was better than my previous experience, or with regular water, but nothing super notable or substantially different.

I'll continue to try this, because why not....?
