Nausea/vomit from PWO
So I’m trying to figure out what could be causing this. No matter what I do while lifting legs if I take a pre workout I will get nauseous and most likely puke. Over the years I’ve tried various pwo always the same I also tried different kinds of work outs (high intensity high rep, low intensity high rep, high weight low rep) it doesn’t matter if I do more than 4 sets of legs it’s going to happen.
That being said I don’t take pwo when I lift legs. Today I was just going about my routine to get ready for the gym on my lunch break and just slammed back preworkout without thinking about the fact I’m doing legs. Now when I got to the gym I was gonna say fuck it and just go do shoulders but I figured it’s been like 5 years since I’ve taken a PWO and lifted legs so I went for it and boom nauseous as fuck.
I’m just wondering if there’s an explanation for this? Like it doesn’t ever happen when I’m doing any other form of training I just don’t get it. But wondering if anyone has same issue or explanation.
Photo for reference I took half a scoop

Adrenaline rush. That drink will boost that happening.
Yes on big days get that time between sets. Heart rate and adrenaline....garbage cans near leg areas for that reason.
Facts I found out this to be very true I went hard as fuck in back and had the same thing happen definitely the blood away from stomach to the needed muscles and adrenaline rush blahhhh
Anyone tosses their cookies at my house gets the morning after pill
LOl
ROFL
HAHAHAHAA I just worked that out
I personally don't take pwo too often anymore, wish I could, best one I've had was the OG crack, had me hitting squat and deadlift prs on the same day. The only things I've noticed to help me is drinking the pre 45-60min before with a shit ton of water. Then about 30min before the gym I'll have a cereal bar and that's just enough to not be on an empty stomach and not sit too heavy.
Yeah I might just do a couple rice cakes and call it a day
Same here bro. I’m so gassed on leg days I don’t even like talking to the bros at the gym. I legitimately need the time between sets to recover. Any pre or food beforehand make me nauseous AF. Legs are just super taxing.
Yeah it takes it all. It funny tho I went hard as fuck today on back like extreme hypertrophy max reps and now I’m feeling the same thing so I think the pre gotta go
Personally I can't tolerate any pre workouts because they make me feel sick and pukey, then they kill my appetite for hours after lifting which is totally counter productive to what I'm trying to achieve. Maybe its something to do with an ingredient in the PWO combined with the blood dropping into your legs.
Yea I think tbh I take it as a habit I need to just not buy another once this runs out
I cannot eat anything before a leg workout or the same thing happens. I drink my protein and all after the workout.
Yea I can’t do an early leg day unless it’s fasted otherwise I’m plastering the mirror in front of me
If you want to get crazy, you can buy each ingredient and take it one at a time until you find your culprit. I know with me too much citrulline makes me feel terrible.
Tedious as fuck I’m just gonna start taking an oral on leg days lol and fuck the pwo
Yeah thats probably better lol
Same for me. I assumed I was allergic to training legs like some guys.
Turns out pop dbol for legs is better for me than a pre workout otherwise I get sick as a dog for a while after.
Lmao yeah I’m gonna try an oral for leg day cause it’s brutal here I am 2 hrs later still feeling like I could puke. I’m going to a carnival later too and my kids gonna want me to do some spin rides I’m fucked
I would suggest it means you have completely and utterly smashed it mate wear the badge with nauseous honour!
unseen423I don't like stimulant based PWO on leg days. If you are going really hard, it can definitely fuck with your stomach.
Are you weighing out the 14g? Bc otherwise if you are just taking a fat scoop, you are getting a huge dose of caffeine.
I never take a full scoop I take a quarter to half scoop . I feel like I need to get some kinda injectable non stim pep for leg days
Honestly, I think it's just the combination of pre-workout and leg training. Legs use the biggest muscle groups in the body, so they create a lot more overall stress than chest, shoulders, or arms. When you add stimulants from a pre-workout on top of that, heart rate goes up, blood pressure increases, blood gets shunted away from the stomach, and for some people that can lead to nausea or even vomiting. The fact that it has happened with multiple pre-workouts, different styles of leg training, and consistently over several years makes me think it's not a specific ingredient but simply how your body reacts to stimulants during hard leg workouts. Since it doesn't happen on any other training day, it seems pretty clear that the combination of leg training and pre-workout is what pushes you over the edge.
So in conclusion, pick up some TNE and use that on leg days!! Or try the SUPER LEAN!!
You might be onto something maybe that’s how I use the super lean just a leg day PWO
You really have nothing to lose. You won’t have to worry about liver toxicity of only using once, twice, or even 3 times a week
God damn you’re so persuasive
The gf still won’t let me put it in her ass, so I’m not that good
Lots and lots of lube… specifically this stuff, it’s the insect ligaments if you will lmao and then while hitting from the back a little thumb action to warm it up and oooops how’d I get In there. Just have your post nut apology ready I’ve seen your reviews you can do it pal
Well
Played on the bees knees hahahahah
