My preworkout makes me sick

I take C4 original, just one scoop before a workout and immediately feel like throwing up, it then sits in my stomach for hours making me feel nauseas.

Any suggestions for something better? Anyone had a similar problem?

I don't like c4 either. Try Mr. Hyde. Not the Nitro version, but the regular version that doesn't have 400mg of caffeine. Can get it at Walmart for $18.

yeah most stimulants will upset your stomach and make you nauseous. if it bothers you that bad you could try a stim free pre workout

I got the Nitro version and I can't take it. It has Niacin in it, and I have a bad reaction to it. I turn bright red and have rashes all over my body. I took it, and by the time I got to the gym it looked like I had some third world disease. I thought I would spontaneously combust.

Dang sounds awful. I've been taking the Nitro recently and haven't had any bad effects. But I did start with the regular, so I might have built up a tolerance that way. I prefer the regular so I can either take less caffeine, or if I want a lil more kick I can just take a scoop and a half.

But C4 always gave me a similar reaction as to what you're describing. I hate it.

Not familiar with the ingredients of C4 but the ingredient Yohimbe (or something like that) doesn’t sit well with me...seems like some pwo has it and some doesn’t so I always try to avoid.

Yeah it sucks. I look now on any supplement I take to see if thats in it. Most people are fine with it in low doses but it gets me every time. Mesomorph was the **** but they had to change it, it kind of sucks now.
