What do you guys use for intra workout drinks? I don't know much on these but am interested in trying something new....

I've used RSP Nutrition Regen for quite a while and I like it.
I just tried a few new ones from Dymatize (Recoup and Amino Pro). All have BCAA's and a few other things as well. I'm sure it's just in my head, but I don't feel I get the same workout without having my intra-workouts.
I'm no nutritionist by any means, but i stick to bcaa's for intra. I agree with Makwa the Xtend is my preferred but I also like Elite Recoup by Dymatize. I don't typically do carbs during workout, just post. Trying to keep carbs low lately.
BangBro2INTRA-MD! as an intra. It has dextrin just like karbolyn or glycofuse but also 10grams of aminos and electrolytes. Seriously the best.
I believe in intra workout supps when im on drugs. To makes a difference just like meal timing.
post work out I just take 2scoops of whey pro by universal and down it while I drive home. Then just eat a meal.
I will look into that I like the idea of getting the BCAAS at the same time, I'd imagine that would help reduce cost somewhat?
BangBro2Somewhat! Thing is you could make your own intra but intra is easy and comes with double the amount of aminos most amino drinks have per serving. If you make your own I like AMINOx by bsn and karbolyn no flavor. But intra is convenient so why not. Intra md is 42$ for 30 servings.
I also add with my intra MD, Irush457 by all american. Its like taking insulin (not close in results nothing bests slin) but its a natural insulin supp. Gives nasty pumps and shuttle your aminos
Thanks man I appreciate those suggestions...I like the sound of the INtra MD with the lrush, I'm going to look into that. Like I said, this is all new to me, I always just ate a big carb meal an hour before my heavy training days, and never really did too many preworkouts, so this is more or less uncharted territory for myself. I sent you an FR I want to ask you something when you get a chance man
BCAA's. Scivation Xtend is my intra of choice.
What about Pre or post you take anything else? I've never been a big supplement fan but I want to change it up. I have heard Xtend is good, that keep you going longer?
When I am not running any albuterol or ephedrine I take JYM pre-WO mix and then I also use the JYM post-WO mix.
I don't think the Xtend necessarily keeps me going longer but it is does ward off catabolism of the muscle tissue when my workouts go for an extended period of time. I also think it is essential to down some BCAA's before doing any fasted cardio to help spare muscle tissue.
Is the Jym stim free? I have used many Pre in then past but anything 200mg of caffeine just messes my stomach up. Basically I am looking to up my intensity and endurance during my workouts as I am going to change up my lifting style from heavy, low reps to moderase weights and much higher reps with shorter breaks between sets, and incorporating supersets as well. I work alot so this particular method of training will be tough without the proper aid. I take BCAAS before and after as well, but that's really my only supplement at the moment
The pre-wo is not stim free. I think it has like 350mg caffeine. That is why I don't take it when using albut or ephedrine. I would be way to wired up. The post-wo is stim free. I drink that on my way home from the gym and then eat my post-wo meal.
Ok cool thanks man I appreciate the advice, maybe a half serving of Jym could work at 175, it's worth a shot I need that extra punch
