Favorite preworkout drink?

[Mai72]

I'm a big fan of preworkout drinks. The caffeniated versions give me the energy to power thru a workout.

I was using Hydroxycut in the past. I have the red pills. The only thing is Hydroxycut was making me fell a bit weird. I was getting very sad. I've since switched to Hyde and just tried it for the first time today. Hopefully, this will give me what I am looking for.

Can you guys recommend another brand? Do you drink black coffee before working out?

I typically have a shot or two of espresso 30-60 mins before gym or sports.

I drink coffee + milk about an hour before working out. My favorite is adding honey to it.

Anything with about 100mg of caffeine (different for everybody's sensitivity level) and amino acids mixed in water.

I've tried quite a number of pre's and typically switch what I use when I run-out. I've tried the following:

MP Assault
MP Iron Pump
Hyde
C4
GAT

I've liked all of them, but C4 and iron pump felt the most useless to me. Hyde had a ridiculous energy kick and would occasionally give me caffeine jitters but I have a high caffeine tolerance so it didn't affect me usually. Iron pump seemed pretty useless to me, but I don't really buy into the whole NO "pump". I just recently started using GAT and i've really liked it so far. A pretty good energy boost (something between Hyde and assault), no creatine (which I take post-workout), and tastes reasonable and mixes well. It is one of the most expensive ones available though and I think they try to buy into the whole "look how sciency we are" by using the compound names and how the bottle looks.

I've tried a bunch of pre-workouts. Right now, my favorite is Hyper, though I'm out and using something else. Many times, I will grab whatever bodybuilding.com has BOGO. Hate coffee, so this is the way I get my caffeine.
