    I don't drink coffee but I would still take a preworkout. They have more benefits than just caffeine for energy...

    Creatine makes you hold water and it makes some people look really bloated, so you can try it if you want, but it may make you look fat.

    When I was able to workout in the mornings, I used coffee as my pre-workout. I love coffee, too. Like @ThunderCookies said though, pre-workouts have other things in them like beta alanine and nitrous oxide that have other workout benefits besides just the caffeine. I'd try coffee and if you like it, keep using it. I think you'll definitely like a pre-workout better though

    Yea right now I'm in construction so I'm up on my feet everyday. Burns a little more calories. Just still seems low but you know how your body works.

    It makes me sound like a pussy but I don't know if I can handle much more caffeine.

    Some preworkouts barely have any caffeine. I used to actually take one that didn't have any...


    Or...maybe you need to intensify you workouts so you NEED the caffeine :stirthepot:

    This is one I was taking for a bit, mainly because I am el cheapo and it is literally the best bang for your buck (26 cent/serving and it has 90servings)

    http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/p/true-athlete-training-formula-8-6-oz-powder/vs-6024#.V8XKEPkrJQI

    They then put out a 'energized' version that has caffeine (and also flavor, the non-energized version is flavorless powder that taste a bit like chalk :notsure:) but it is only 50mg of it. Still a great deal too. (31 cent/serving and it has 90servings).

    http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/p/true...ing-formula-fruit-punch-262-g-powder/vs-6025#

    I almost exclusively was using that one until I bought a container of Mr. Hyde off of @Kerleyfries for half price. It has some outrageous amount of caffeine but also only 30servings for it's normal price around $30. Which is more in line with most preworkouts at $1/serving and usually more...

    What are the tingling feelings you supposedly get with beta alanine?

    Just imagine Arnold tickling you and whispering "you've fucking got this", but as he's tickling you he's transferring some of his strength to you.

    That's what it feels like

    But in all seriousness...

    It can probably be summed up in the following

    Side note - @zacharypaul89 better be careful on this bulk. That last beard pic was looking awfully Jonah Hill-esque :devil:

    He first time you take a decent amount you're going to tingle so bad that you itch. It's not an annoying itch though, it feels good. lol

    That's how you know your gear is real man. Come on. Lol jk. It's a great feeling though at least I think so.

    Speaking of pre workout I've been cycling off the last two weeks and let me tell you how shitty I feel all the time. No coffee no, pre no nothing. Not sure if I'm gonna make it 4 weeks.

    I found myself making kissy seductive faces to the coffee pot at work tellin it how much it misses big daddy
