Pre workout is over hyped

see title

- Over priced
- 80 percent of the market is snake oil
- Brb jitters
- Brb can hospitalize you
- Brb Anxiety
- Brb tingling ******* and ears

Not worth it in my opinion for the average lifter. Shouldn't be relied on, causes unnecessary strain on the heart, builds up a tolerance extremely quick to caffeine, brb coffee doesn't have any effects anymore. Havent had a "proper' Preworkout since the og hyde blend (which was pure heart bursting btw)

These days, dude, most, if not all, of the supps in bodybuilding/fitness stacks actually do the opposite of what they're supposed to - or I'm just being deliberately targeted.

I now look more chiselled, have more energy, have better, more efficient respiratory activity, have more muscle contractions and look and feel better and my skin looks like my age if not younger when I'mNOTtaking any of the supps.

My Spidey senses tingle because negative effects began to occur around December 2019 - coincidental, because the media started all of this nonsense about a "virus".

It also doesn't help that I'm mildly allergic toSOY- and I really, really hate soy!

My muscles - especially my legs - look more chiselled and machinelike when I omit the stacks, which leads me to suspect that a lot of the dudes you see in competitions and on BB feeds probably don't take anything.


Looks like post-December 2019, all supos are either bad or have been tampered with or...it's personal on a criminal level?

In any case, I can't believe that I'm the saying this right now, but I probably won't be buying any supps anymore and I think that is the general feeling with most folks. Expect the bodybuilding/fitness supps market to crash and burn into total ruin unless things improve.

Damn it, most of the supps even affect those with "fast-twitch fibres" and slows 'em down!

This is the end of the fitness supps market. Odin and Zeus are furious. Somebody or something has been trying to DEVOLVE those who are naturally more energetic and able and wish to improve.

This is the end.

EDIT: Some even also appear to inhibit androgens and GH and turn bones to mush - the opposite of what they say they're supposed to do!

TL;DR

Usual supps nowadays (standard herbs, vitamins, minerals, aminos that are part of bodybuilding/fitness stacks) appear to have negative effects on muscle mass, bones, respiratory system and fat metabolism and water retention. Something has changed, perhaps and it appears to have been around December '19.

Also, OP, when I was a younger teenager, around 13 or 14, I clearly had higher levels of naturally-occuring myostatin inhibitors in my body and you could see this from my teenage physique - minimal body fat and extremely defined muscles, especially chest muscles. All totally natty and zero supps. Then at 14 or 15 or something, I must have gone abroad or something and been told some travel vaccines were mandatory and then at 16, started to take a highstreet multivitamin and it all went downhill from there. Then in undergrad years, a few supps and natural peak genetics were suppressed and f*cked.

I have now empirically concluded that usual bodybuilding/fitness stack supps actually suppress natural peak genetics and hormones and are generally bad. I look better when not using usual supps like vitamins, herbs, minerals, aminos etc.

They also appear to really age the skin and make you look like an older person; make your legs and b*tt fatter, increase body fat and belly fat and make dudes look like they've been juiced with estrogen and progesterone...

TL;DRSupps nowadays will basically trick people into thinking thatyou'rea tranny!! Ded fkn srs e.g. you may look at Arnie's current physique now and put it down to "older age" but Arnie probably only started supplementing with stuff recently, hence why his chest and midsection is looking so saggy and his skin is looking much older.

Don't instantly say "old age" because some of us dudes in our twenties and thirties are definitely not "old".

ECA has always worked better for me than any PWO, though there are a couple of products by EVL that I like.

Bad. Bad.


ALL supps and preworkouts and everything are all bad. Nobody should buy anything anymore.

Boycott everything.

The dudes you see with chiselled and defined muscles who look almost machinelike don't take ANY of these and also limit water intake (or expel the water via exercise) prior to photos/photo ops.

Everything sold is now suspicious until proven safe and innocent.
