Supplements for pre and during workout

[Drew026]

I'm always looking for new supplements to try mainly for my pre and during workout. Currently I'm taking the NO Black Powder about half an hour before my workout and just drink water during it and have a protein shake after.

Does anyone recommend any other supplements for during workout? Or even pre-workout? What benefits do you see from these supplements.

before, i just do some protein and citrulline malate,...and after...the same plus waxy maize and creatine.

so with that said....

what would help me get bigger and stronger?

I'd recommend Xtend or some other form of BCAAs.

BCAAs have too many benefits to list, but this faq on Xtend and this general faq on amino acids should give you the rundown.

complex carb pre workout is much better than a nitric oxide product

Like sleazy said "Xtend" I take it all day long. Pre/During/Post.

For after it's just some whey and berries sometype of carb (maltodextrine)

[Drew026]

Is the Xtend easier on the stomache then the NO products?

[allstar]

yes they are amino acids and dont have to be taken on a 2 hour empty stomach
