Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

OK, this is the review you need if you are looking into getting a pre workout. I have never used pre workout before. I work nights and go to the gym right after work in the morning. I was always super tired driving to the gym and would use that as an excuse not to go. So i bought this solely off of the high positive reviews. I drink it as soon as I am done with work and am at the gym 45 minutes later. It works well, but its not as amazing as everyone says. I have been using it for a month or so and like it. I will keep using it and will most likely buy it again. Here are the pros and cons. Pros: -It works. I feel a kick in my energy and am not as tired -I dont feel that jittery (with one scoop). If you are a smaller person, you may, but I dont. -it says 2 scoops is the serving. That is false. You need one for basic workouts. 2 if you are super tired and have a huge workout in front of you or if you need to stay up for 24 hours straight. Otherwise, 1 scoop is plenty. I am a pretty big guy, and one scoop is good enough for me. So that means there's 40 servings instead of 20! -It works within 20-30 minutes (As I said, I am 280+ lbs. a smaller person may feel it sooner). Best to drink before the gym, not at the gym. Cons: -It is pretty bitter. I was expecting a crystal light kind of flavor. It is definitely a pretty crappy fruit punch. I knew it wouldn't be like kool-aid, but it is definitely NOT sweet, at all. But I can still easily drink it. I would just hate the flavor if I were drinking it recreationally. -my skin gets tingly and sensitive. when I drink one scoop, i feel sensitive and tingly skin in my back and triceps. always those spots. Its not really itchy, but it is a weird feeling. Usually comes withing 30 mins or drinking it and usually goes away 30-60 mins later. When I start working out and am sweating, I dont notice it anymore. It is not uncomfortable, but a little weird. -maybe if you take a lot, but I never feel "pumped" or anything like super high adrenaline. I just feel awake and not drowsy with it. So if you are looking for something to really pump you up, take a lot or look else where. -Technically it is only 20 servings (if you do 2 scoops, which you don't really need two, one is plenty). And for 20 servings, it is a little expensive. Overall, it works well and I will probably buy it again. I dont care for the sensitive and tingly skin or the taste, but it works and gives me enough energy to not use "Im too tired" as an excuse. I just use one of those 16 oz plastic water bottles, the ones that come in the big packs of like 24 from the store. That is plenty of water to dissolve it for me.
