I’ve reached the end of my SizeOn, and I’m running low on my Pre-Kaged.
As of late, I’ve been doing a lot of Oly training as well as conditioning under my coach. My lifting sessions are 2-3 hours long. My intra needs to be like, a small meal replacement, not just “5g of BCAAs with 1g of other EAAs.” Things like SizeOn, Biotest’s stuff, etc. Solid carbs, solid protein/aminos.
As for pres, open to suggestions on what you guys have been enjoying lately. I like nootropics and my stim tolerance is concerningly high. Again, I’m doing oly and athletic stuff, not chasing pumps, although those are also fun.
stim with noots:
Prolific for a great long term stim that is smooth
Brain Bridge (not really a pre, but the focus/energy is solid)
include more pump:
Dymatize Pre
Isatori Morph
Gat Psychon
Nutrex Outlift & Outlift Amped
intra just grab a good EAA Product:
Xtend Elite
MAN Iso-EAA
PES Amino IV
ProSupps HydroBCAA
Personally you can add carbs on your own to your liking instead of an all in one. This way you can adjust to your training style. For someone like yourself you could easily add 20-30-50g of whatever you prefer (HBCD, WMS, Dextrose, Malto)
My favorite pre as of late has been Nutrex Alpha Pump + 200mg caffeine pill. This combo literally is insane compared to other pre’s I’ve taken as of late. For one, you don’t feel stimmed out of your mind, and for two, the pump is intense. I would compare this pump to Olympus Labs RE1GN. I should say that it also really puts me in the zone and I feel great endurance (probably the 1g Peak02).
If you want more micronutrient dense food, you could make your own baked potato/sweet potato chips.
I have also made homemade granola/protein bars: Basically oats, whey; honey, and some binding agent, such as peanut butter, pb28, or cottage cheese. Cottage cheese is slower digesting - maybe not ideal for intraworkout, depending on your preferences? That’s a lot of work though - so maybe the meal replacement shake is worth it. Haha.
haha yes this! Most things I eat/drink I think,well I can just make it myself, then I realize that my time is valuable, so the price doesn’t seem so bad. haha
