So far I've tried...

NO-Xplode - First PWO supplement I've tried. Gave me great energy but burned me out pretty quick. I honestly can't judge how good it is because of all the bad rep it gets and because it was my first PWO.
Animal Pump - I thought this was the shiit when I first started taking it. Gave me great energy and pump throughout the whole workout and I didn't feel the crash as much as I did with NO-Xplode. I also love the fact that it comes in pills and the fact that caffeine pill can be taken out if desired.
Superpump 250 - After 2 cans of Animal Pump I decided to give this a try and so far I gotta say SP250 is great. Tastes and mixes great and the energy boost is incredible.

I would recommend Animal Pump and Superpump 250 to anyone based on my experiences.

What's your favorite PWO supp?

What bad rep has NO Xplode gotten? Last time I checked people swore by it.

But yea I have to say it's my favorite so far. I just take it on on workout days so a bottle last me like two months

I see a lot of NO-Xplode hate on bodybuilding forums. I guess it's because of its popularity, fancy packaging, and marketing. I guess they see it as something like Lil Wayne of pre-workout supplements.

It worked good for me too... I just feel like Animal Pump and Superpump250 worked better. Could be just mental thing, I don't really know.

Almost any isotonic drink and some pre-work out snacks/bars.

damn, I don't take anything before my workouts. But I have the Labrada Meal Replacement afterwards....the chocolate one is pretty good.

Xtend, a BCAA shake which I start before and drink during workouts.

When I get on my bulk, I'll probably run a cycle of NO-explode

Been on Superpump for a week after being off NO Xplode for nearly a month.

So far this > NO Xplode. Just the fact that theres no crashing makes it alone makes it so much better.

NOexplode works for sure but the bad thing is it keeps me up all night after I take it. it's either got a sh*tload of caffeine or something else that's doing this.

I take animal pump before working out.

But what I've found that helps also, is drinking a good amount of water before working out.

I just got some samples of AP and torrent...Ill try it tomorrow..Ive heard nothing but great things..I may not take the red(stim) pill tho, I get kinda funny(sick) from them

I take cytogainer but will switch up to real gains on the next reup

Yeah Animal pump def helps, I remeber the second day I was using it and it was back/bi day and my arms were so pumped up, they felt like bricks or something...lol
I have a sample of torrent.. I think i'll give that a try tomorrow, but I think regardless how good torrent is, I think i'll stick with ON 100% Whey and Dextrose(which makes my shakes taste alot better ), it's the cheaper route.

Been on White Flood and Green Magnitude (by Controlled Labs) for the past week. So far I gotta say they're working great, definitely better than SP250 for me.

WTF Pump'd by ALRI



Tastes like it sounds but it works like a charm. No crash or jitters afterwards.

I think Ima actually go with plasmajet and caffeine pills for awhile.....PJ is that crack when it comes to NO delivery (veins lookin disgustin big) the pump is 2nd to NONE

and caffeine for the intensity/focus boost

simple yet extremely effective
