Insomnia and bad sleep in general got me drinking one a day. I'm working on improving sleep though so i will hopefully stop soon.

the only one that I ever felt like it shocked my system was Reign. First time I had one of those in the office I was like

Reign and Bang are the worst. Bang had me feeling like a crackhead.

Celsius FTW. :banderas:

I drink Celsius and C4 sometimes. C4 mainly before a workout


Other than that, I try to do more green tea. Work/traffic been whipping my ass though, so I need something stronger in the morning now.

And I don’t drink roach coffee like that
I remember my gym had some vendors handing out C4 when I was leaving out. The next time I went to the gym, I decided to drink a can before my workout. That shyt had me itching all over, even my forehead! Can’t lie though, it did give me a boost and I was able to lift with no fatigue. I don’t think my body felt normal for a good week though. Never drank it again.

I like the itch :birdman:

That the sucralose one breh :francis:

Which one?

It’s rare though. Only started drinking it at work this week before I get home and burn it off in my incomplete home gym.

I just bought a real pre-workout though. Apparently, everything being delivered is shutdown until Tuesday :beli:

I like Celsius usually pick a few cans of those up if I see them on sale at the Grocery Store. I also like Xyience, but I'm pretty sure they went out of business. There's a few QT's that still have some on hand but you can tell it's jus squeezing the Expiration dates out of them lol.

Those little 5-hour energy drinks are my thing. Much smoother pick me up than Red Bull or Monster.

I am sensitive to caffeine so I try to stay away from it, especially after 2pm. A 20oz bottle of Coke or Mtn Dew will keep me awake till 2-3am at night, I’m good. It’s one “drug” that doesn’t benefit my life in a good way. If I want caffeine, I try to drink a green tea these days.

Ghost energy drink. Maximum I'll ever drink is one can per day, but I go on long phases of not having them at all to detox. Ghost tastes the absolute BEST out of all them shyts y'all mentioned and only has 200mg caffeine which is the perfect amount Compared to bang and reign with 300mg :huhldup:
