[QUOTE="Saul, post: 83094, member: 16541"] I thought this might be helpful to others and wanted to get anyone's input. I saw a helpful post from SteveP about pre-work out supplements. I often get up to work out at 5:30, which for me is unnaturally early and I have no energy, so I thought I would give it a go. So, I did my research and decided Jym Pre-workout Supplement looked good. Got up early one morning, and loaded up a dose. I did back off the full serving figuring I would start out slow. Mother Mary it was sweet (like concentrated sugar) and after about 15 minutes my heart was racing and I was getting freaked out from all the caffeine. It has 300 mg of caffeine per scoop - way too much for me. Notwithstanding that I thought my heart was going to explode, I was alert and had a good workout. I did some more research and tried to focus in on the best supplements to take pre-work out and focus on what SteveP was taking, other member's input, what the Jym pre-workout bragged about. I bought the following from Nutricost and Bulk Supplements to build my own so I could control the content and keep the cost in check. Here is my new formulation for morning workouts. - Creatine HCL - Beta Analine - Citrulline Malate (2:1) - L-Carnitine Tartrate - Pre-Jym Powder (1/4 dose) - ~ 75 mg of caffeine (most I tolerate well pre-workout when fasted) along with lower doses of other pre-work out supplements I pre-make servings into small containers and store them until needed, then just dump in my drink. If I am working out after 2:00 pm, then I leave out the Jym powder since I don't drink caffeine after 2:00 pm. So far this is working well. I did not include amounts in my list because I am increasing the amounts of each based on research and starting slow to see how I tolerate each bump up. I have protein rich breakfast and a protein drink after working out, but I do work out fasted in the morning. So far it is working well. Anything I should add to this? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
