Best Overall Pre-Workout Energy/Pump Supplement?

[Brandon Dennis]

no explode is good for energy but not good pumps and u get use to it easy
no shotgun, superpump 250, and vyotech nitrobolic extreme are good for pumps but my favorite is nitrobolic extreme because it taste good and pumps are insane

has any one ever tried plasma jet? its in a pill form...

[doush]

well im currently on
Animal PAK + PUMP stak and feel great..

Especially pump is giving me great pumps and vascularity. Will never change it.
And also the best thing I love about it is the red pill that you may not take it if you are pushing the iron night time.

[rschloe]

i tried black powder, nano vapor, n.o. plasmacore, superpump250. and i would rate them in that order.....but my brother likes superpump250, nano vapor, black powder, then n.o. plasmacore...so guess that shows how nobody is the same

yea my favorites are n.o. explode and black powder...i just get black powder since its a bit cheaper cuz i feel they have the same quality

[parente]

has anyone tried ragnarok? by millenium sports i heard its pretty good but what do you guys think? right no im on no shotgun and its doin real nice taste isnt that bad its the new formula and i like the pumps

[txboy5]

I am currently taking on my first tub of Ragnarok and I have nothing but positive things to say about it. I was contemplating to give it a try and i am glad that I did.... I have not tried NO shotgun so I cant say that its better than it but I know its bada$$

[md0n]

I've been using white flood for a few of weeks now and I don't think its working. I take the full dose and I don't feel anything special. I've tried taking it 1/2 hour before workout, few minutes before workout and during workout, and everytime I didn't really feel anything. I don't know if my body is tolerant to it or what?

[superman9169]

I workout late at night so all the caffiene thats in the powders mess up my sleep patterns. I was just turned on to ZENITH for Pre Workout and Chain for post workout by Reaction Nutrition. They are liquid caps and have a nice combo of your basics. Great pumps and my recovery is actually better than I expected. Nice line in general I have my girlfriend on the VOODOO.

Thats one of the great things about Animal Pump that you have the option of taking the stims or leaving them out, Pump is the only product with that feature.

[SPACECLOWN]

There is caffeinated and non-caffeinated Ragnarok for those that prefer powders. If you are a pill person that Animal Pump all the way.

[FlyingV]

If you want some serious pre-workout energy try LaBrada Super Charge. I have gone through 2 cans with no regrets. The only downside is that I seemed to develop a tolerence for the stuff and had to take more to get the same effect.

Right, I've also found that to be the case with Super Charge and most other preworkout supplements I've tried, which is a ****load, since I get them for free or at cost. That's one reason why I used to think there was no permanent best product for preworkout. I had to rotate them around to get consistent results.

Well, never say never, but for many months now, since about last January, I have been using H+ Blocker which was then and is now the absolute best one I have ever tried and am still using. iSatori's literature and marketing for the product, great as they are, didn't convince me, but the results did. Even my gf, who is like the 'Life Cereal Mikey' of supplements (she wont take it, she hates everything) has had to concede that it really takes a workout higher.

My impression of the H, and the reason I like it, is that it doesnt have strong central nervous system effects, there is no caffeine edginess or tweaky feeling. Nor is it oriented towards an NO muscle pump, which I'm not really interested in since those products cramp the hell out of my forearms when I try to lift heavy, esp on back day. What it does do is to liberate a lot of power and strength while delaying the onset of fatigue both within individual sets and over the course of the workout as a whole. It's funny, I really don't feel much from the H+ Blocker were I to stand there and try to describe it to you, its benefits to me are what I don't feel, I don't fatigue anywhere near as easy, I don't feel wired out and I don't lose mental focus or a sense of momentum in the 2nd half of the workout.

**For the record, I dont work for these guys (iSatori) in any way shape of form,
and with all the stuff I do get or can get for free, I am glad to fork over the ~ 40 bucks for a tub of HB.

no one mentions musle asylum no plasmacore is it not relevant

White Flood

[CONTROLLED LABS]

White Flood

short and sweet

[Chris_26]

I've only tried 2 pre-workout supps: NO-Xplode and White Flood. NO-Xplode was great for about 2 weeks...the rest of the jug was fairly worthless. White Flood is ridiculous, and by ridiculous I mean awesome. I get a tingling sensation throughout my entire body when I take it that lasts for 5-10 minutes, but the pump, the energy, and the focus that it gives lasts for hours.

I'm military pilot, and I've actually taken White Flood before a flight a couple of times when I was low on energy and the results were amazing.

[md0n]

why am I not seeing the same results as you guys with white flood?
As I posted before it does nothing to me, no extra energy, no pump, no tingling sensation.

I had the same exact experience, found myself using 3 scoops towards the end of the tub (made it last less than a month). The taste was god awful and the energy gave me severe a.d.d. like symptoms. As for the energy drink idea, I do the same but with 1 scoop PW in 28oz water, really helps fuel my tank at work on the 100+ temp days.

[andrewyoung88]

what do you suggest using for a post-workout while stacking white flood with green Magnitude???? another creatine??? something else maybee????

[JTFisher79]

I would use universal torrent

[andrewyoung88]

thats pretty much the same type of product as the nitro-tech hardcore right?

[JTFisher79]

no nitro-tech is a protein supplement

[andrewyoung88]

Is it possible to use greenMAG as a pre and post? (combining WF as the pre)
would it even do much....

[ILPump]

SP250 or the new N.O. Shotgun V.3...

[headinahole]

There is no reason to take it more than once a day, all the magnesium would most likely keep you running to the john as well.

Awesome to hear, thanks

golden finish for sure. you dont need a postworkout shake with creatine in it as you already get plenty with green magnitude

sure, if you want to take a half scoop pre and post, but its suggested to do 1 scoop pre.

[britonarius]

i posted here before - but just recently had the pleasure of trying both nuclear garbage and garbage [ both by garbage] - got to say - they leave everything i tried except armgeddon and evolution X10 in the shade.Got to say they are incredible!

[naturalguy]

I would use universal torrent

Torrent is an excellent choice, the formula is stellar.

Torrent will save you money also, it has 3 grms of creatine in it so if you have a creatine product you can 1/2 dose it pre workout and off days so it will last longer, win-win situation for the consumer

[andrewyoung88]

golden finish or torrent as a post????? taste wise...
