Which pre workout is the best?

[Anonymous]

I started working out around 2 years ago and I'm already pretty fit, and super serious about exercising, eating healthy and all.

Currently I'm having C4, which is personally shit. It makes my hands and feet tingle, don't get me motivated or stronger or more focused. I used to have D-Stunner but it tastes like shit.

I've been recommended Jack'd Up and Shotgun, but what do you recommend? Any of these two?
I'm not looking for losing weight/fat or anything, just gaining muscle mass and toning up.

Thanks!!

C4 has arginine and beta alanine. Its those amino acids that give you the tingle. Take half or even less. The caffeine is way too high in pre workouts, in my opinion.

All preworkout probably have those amino acids in them. You're best bet is a cup or two of coffee or taurine and ginseng.

I use Hyde and it makes me an animal. Hydroxycut hardcore fucks me up its kinda like coke without the euphoria. I use that for cardio and Hyde for weights

I don't use supplements. I eat healthy and I take 5 small portions of proteins daily, but only natural ones and since I am vegetarian, they are vegetarian too. I cook them myself in portions and I freeze them.

Jack'd will make you tingle X10 more than C4. It feels like fire ants crawling on you. Shotgun has no tingles, but will give you explosive diarrhea 30-90 minutes after taking. I'd bet that's how they came up with the name.

Most people should avoid pre-workouts. A can of pepsi or mountain dew (caffeine + sugar) is all most people need for energy.

There are probably a thousand threads about pre-workout on the bodybuilding. com forums.
