What's the best pre workout for focus?

[whatlimit]

Been out a while now without serious training and so I stopped pre workout all together.

Well I'm back at it again this year. My favorite pre workout before was craze for the focus it gave me. It was also great at study aid where I need that focus.

Main concern is the focus-and if I can use it for studying too great.
2nd is energy.

And no side effects please/stim. d or cardio issues stuff(I've read some scary stuff from c4) I guess "clean

Anyways the one I'm looking at are hemavol for cycling off.

But here are what I found as main ones
-stimul8
-focus xt
-jym
-neosurge

What do you guys think?

Huperzine A
Rhodiola Rosea
Alpha GPC
L-tyrosine

Some pre-workouts I've liked recently that provided focus:
Carbon Prep
Katana V4

Conquer Unleashed
Scream
Outlift

[OT2000]

These two have some good focus. I also add 1-1.5 grams of ALCAR at times

Myokem Nitramine
Carbon Prep ( no caff ]

[robert5891]

Conqu3r Unleashed
White Rapids
Max Out
Nitramine
Neurosurge

Also look into bulks like ALCAR, Alpha GPC, and Tyrosine

[ewolf2]

Upload from Alpha pro nutrition is definitely worth checking out. I love the focus I get when I take it.

[Misctake7]

My favorite stim/focus pre's are:
-1MR Vortex - currently BOGO 50% off
-Mesomorph
-Conqu3r
-Steel Edge

[Traininsgaining]

Take 2.5 grams of taurine
followed by 50 mg of dimethylglycine
Followed by 100 mg of grape seed extract
and 4 grams of creatine

tell me how good you feel in an hour

[TheFugitive]

BPI Sports 1MR Vortex provides some great mental focus. I'm always locked in and ready to go.

100 serving for around 40 bucks> Current special> Buy 1 Get 1 50% off. Mix and match flavors.

My fav stim options would be

Ergoblast
neurocore
Scream
and
Mesomorph

[shoefanatic23]

Neogenix NeuroSurge 3.0
SNS Focus XT
Core Fury

[stad0203]

C4 has a new "Neuro" version geared toward focus and is a more mild stim (150mg Caffeine).

Others: Focus XT, Vortex, and although I haven't tried it the profile of Mesomorph is looking intriguing.

Thanks for the V mention.

Neurosurge 3.0 stands the test of time in my books. It's purely focus and energy based, and that's what I love about it. Shame to see it on clearance, but a nice time to grab some at a fair price.

Komodo Katana treated me really well with the sample I had. Not as much energy, but amazing focus and pump. It's on my list to buy a tub in the next few weeks.

I really enjoy Vortex as well. Energy and focus for sure.

[NoCarbsNoSugar]

I would suggest ALCAR from Dymatize.
Also, Alpha Cuts from Alpha Pro Nutrition, which besides yielding great focus is also a very potent PWO!

In the end, you have to find out which one is the best for you.
Everyone responds differently to different supplements.

Please explain this scary stuff from C4? C4 is a lower stim option of preworkout. If you can't handle 150mg caffeine then you might want to look into drinking green tea or a small cup of coffee preworkout.

Op, give the new grenade .50 caliber shot! Focus is great throughout the entire workout!



Also try:

Vortex

[Rob1882]

Your orig post going to be hard to top Focus XT which is specifically a nootropic blend not really a pre workout and in such has a fairly large dose of the nootropics it also comes in stim-free and you can add it to a blend of stimulants for me that is often EC.

Neurosurge is fantastic and is prob my 2nd pick but is the only one which is directly a pre workout and has really good focus with a heavier use of nootropics

Not on your list but

Cutler new Legend Pro had fairly good focus and great energy was a huge step up from their orig "Legend"

what in vortex do you feel gives you great focus?

[DamonX]

Op I have 0 affiliations with any companies products I'm going to list, these are all products that I felt were exceptional in this category.

Myokem Nitramine, all versions.
Komodo Katana

Or
Take your favorite stim blend, and add 250-500mg cdp choline + 1-2g ALCAR.

Edit: forgot to add ANS Diablo, very nice mood enhancing/focus aspect in this product as well. But it's got some ingredients in it for fat loss, so unsure if you want to consider that. They offer a trial size in store.

I'm sure you'll b able to get samples of all the products I've listed, Diablo has a 10 serving trial in store.

[AMeyer9]

OP it's hard to find a pre-workout with more cognitive-boosting ingredients than Nitramine

If you live in the US pm me your address and I'll see what I can do about getting you some samples

Thanks for the Neurosurge shoutout, the focus and energy are absolutely stellar and one of my favorites long before I even became a rep. Keep your eyes peeled for a new version to be dropping soon.

I also want to give a shoutout to Nitramine, the focus at 1.5 scoops in insanely good

[dknatural74]

Ergoblast, Hyde V2, Neurocore. In the zone every time; especially with the first two!!

Great suggestions right here.

Katana and Nitramine are solid PWOs with 10/10 focus. I would opt for the inexpensive route of just taking some ALCAR for your pre workout, it works very well if you're trying to save money.

[naturalguy]

Animal Rage XL is VERY strong for focus

[CONTROLLED LABS]

Conqu3r Unleashed
White Rapids
Max Out
Nitramine
Neurosurge

Also look into bulks like ALCAR, Alpha GPC, and Tyrosine

yes, white rapids is an awesome choice. its currently 20% off on the bb.com store

[whatlimit]

Thanks for the reply guys. I have compiled a mini list based on the amount of mention of the product from each response.

heres what I found and will try. (after I do a bit of looking into each one of course.)
1. Nitramin
2. Neosurge(I'm glad this made it here)
3. focus xt
4. katana
5. conqu3r unleashed
6. 1mr vortex


stack with 1-2grams of alcar - dymatize if needed

OP it's hard to find a pre-workout with more cognitive-boosting ingredients than Nitramine

google "c4 problems bodybuilding" and found a few thread there. with some of them having cardiac/panic attack. heart rate spiking.

I'm actually not caffeine sensitive but why risk my health on a supplement when theres others that will do the same or better without the "risk". I may just be paranoid but ill take the ones that people aren't having issues with.
