I tried one this morning before my workout and it seemed to help with my energy level during my workout. Googled around and didn't really see any bad side effects of taking one before morning workouts. Anyone else use them? Any negative effects you could think of?

I don't work out in the morning, but I exclusively get my caffeine through pills.

I actually think it is healthier. You get zilch but caffeine. I'm mot exactly sold that a lot of energy drink or preworkout ingredients are more than snake oil. I get a caffeine boost for dirt, dirt cheap with pills.

NoDoz, you get basically 60 servings of what's in preworkout caffeine for under $10. The only risk is the basics associated with excessive caffeine consumption.

I bought 120 pills for like $20. I think they work. It’s hard to tell at 5:30 am.

I started with caffeine pills and eventually my body got used to it. Now I just do a bump of coke before I hit the gym. The pump is fricking incredible.

Dang. 200 mg of caffeine in NoDoz and I need 3 or 4 of those per work day.

Yes, I'm an addict.
