I know for a fact there are some good non caffeine options, just not sure which
Well what are those? I've honestly never heard of a caffeine free pre. I mean what would that do for you?
edit: apparently NO Xplode has a caffeine free product LINK

Maybe he is sensitive to caffeine? Maybe he works out late at night? Maybe he wants his muscles to get a good pump with feeling like he is going to bounce off the walls?
I take green tea with Beta-alanine and citrulline malate mixed in.
I love the tingle feeling and think I have good endurance from it but who knows.
This should help you more than this board: Bodybuilding.com preworkout supplements without caffeine

Yeah I get that he doesn't want the caffeine for whatever reason, just don't understand where he's going to get the extra energy he needs because that's the point, right? I mean I'd be all for it if there was a good one out there. Does the beta alanine give you the needed boost?
It just sounds like wasted money, but I don't know.

There are plenty of other ingredients in supps that give you a boost.

I've thought about doing my own concoction
Posted on 6/11/15 at 10:18 am to TheOcean
After reading ingredients of many of the highly rated ones, its seems they have energy boosters similar to caffeine, such as taurine, or creatine. That is why I made my own concoction, which I love.

I bought a 1lb bag of Beta-alanine and just mix it with water and some of that kool aid flavoring shite you squirt in there.
Posted on 6/11/15 at 10:19 am to TheOcean
Well let us know what you find out...I'd love to know. I don't currently take anything and it sucks.

And you get good energy from it?

Exactly, pretty much what I'm seeing. Just asking why from the people who are taking them.

It works for me. Feels like little nano-bots are crawling on my face and I sweat like a beast.
Oh yeah, I put creatine in mine as well.

Think I'm just going to mix creatine, beta alinine, l-arginine, and l-citrulline together with some gatorade or kool aid mix
Should also be wayyy cheaper than buying pre workouts

yeah I was going to say you could probably create your own pretty easily to insure there's no caffeine

Caffeine pills have 225 mg per pill... Doesn't seem like that much to me.
Posted on 6/11/15 at 1:08 pm to Proximo
225 mg per is like two cups of coffee

Mix Hemavol and Beta Alanine.
Posted on 6/11/15 at 1:51 pm to xXLSUXx
exactly. hemavol and beta together ftw.
also controlled labs purple wrath with their green mag works well also.
btw good luck mixing your own, tried it a bunch of times and could never get it to taste right at all.

I'm in the same boat - I hit the gym after work and try not to use too much pre stuff due to the caffeine content. Kinda hard to get out of the gym and in bed just an hour or two after. If I'm feeling really rough I use a half scoop of ON Pre, but usually i just go in without. Even the Amino Acid supplements are loaded with caffeine.
