Good morning, I was just curious if anyone has tried GABA as a preworkout? I've read online some people use it, others say it would do nothing. Figured it would be best to ask here, with such a large collective of experienced athletes and fellow gym rats.

I bought a bottle to take before bed. It gives you a flush kind of like a preworkout mix like C4 or critical mass, but after that passes you get a deep relaxed feeling. It's used to treat anxiety among other things.

The argument is that GABA greatly increases post workout growth hormone production. The people taking it say they'll offset the sedative effect with a stimulant, such as caffeine.

Does anyone have any experience with this? See any results? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry if this isn't the right thread, wanted it to get seen.
