And before you ask "What do you look for in a pre workout?" The answer is simple, at least simple to me, whatever helps me lift heavy ass weights. So I don't know if that means focus, pump, energy, or whatever, but I need to lift really heavy weight, over and over again.

Food would be the answer along with progressive overload and adequate recovery/rest if all you want to do is lift more weight consistently.
Short cuts to success are often paved with lies.
1/13/16: Massive hernia.
5/10/16: Finally back to lifting, light but improving.

There are many pre workouts that can aid in focus/energy/pump/endurance, etc.
For me I've been using Ryse's Godzilla pre. It gives me all that and then some.
There are plenty of others to look at.

You shouldn't need an energy boost to lift heavy weight, but if energy helps, grab a can of Rockstar (300mg) of caffeine

Caffeine is the number one legal ergogenic aid. As high as you can tolerate for max weight. For a one rep max some smelling salts will give a boost as well.
Now, if you wanna take it to the next level anything that’ll increase dopamine and acetyl choline.
You can try combining tyrosine, alcar, cdp choline and alpha gpc but I have bad reactions to alpha gpc even though it has been proven to improve strength.

Well look for something with Caffeine, Arginine, Citrulline, Beta Alanine and you should be fine 30 mins before workout.
