@mn5 that's not in the rules but would be a worthy addition!
Absolutely, everyone needs functional strength in this day and age.....then again we live in a world where I can order McDonalds without leaving the couch if I want to so go figure.

@mariner4life I got 10 today!

so i tried Preworkout fof the first time this morning, before a cardio class
holy fucking shit! i didn't think i felt any different, but i went fucking flat out! set a couple of records, and the wife said it looked like i was on speed. Cracking fun
i think someone has said you sort of get immune to it after a while? what if you only use it a couple of times a week?

@mariner4life depends what was giving you the zing. If it was the tingles aka beta-alanine then after a while you might want to go to 1.5 or 2 scoops. But in my exp you'd have to be fiending pretty hard for the buzz to lessen.

Yeah it’s good shit. Freaked me out a bit to be honest and I’m now only using it for big early sessions. Very easy to get addicted to.

i just figured it was the 175mg of caffiene
think i'll use it for the cardio days. resistance days i get up earlier and eat before i go. but cardio i literally roll out of bed, get dressed, and drive around the corner. and i am not a morning person, so i start slow
fucking not today though!!

@mariner4life definitely try it with weights. I reckon you get more tangible improvement in your lifts/endurance compared to cardio. Although my cardio + preworkout experience has been a few games of rugby and a bit of cardio alongside weights. It can hit pretty hard on an empty stomach, so that's a bonus lol. Would be interesting to see how much of a difference eating before a weights session made. C'mon man, do it for science! do it for ...

@mariner4life yeah I found the same, was expecting a buzz or being amped, but didnt get that and was wondering what the big deal was, except I could smash out my workout in about 3/4 of the time and feel like carrying on.
That said, I have noticed some days I do get a bit of a tingle in my fingers and my scalp, but nothing that makes me think I can run through walls or anything!

in my massive sample size of one day, yeah it fucking works. I don't care if it's the powder or the placebo effect, i had a great workout
wish i had used it this morning before my resistance session

That’s my take on it as well (maybe powder maybe placebo). But it clearly has an effect on some of those weights days. When I don’t even need a coffee all day after an early morning workout then something is happening.
