Cycling off pre workouts in moderation
ad
So as many know that with pre workouts, you can take for amount of weeks,
till you cycle it off for another amount of weeks.
What if you take a pre workout rarley, like as in maybe 4-6 times a month,
would you still consider to cycle off for a while?

You will know if you need to cycle off because you will notice that the effect is not the same or you require more to get the same effect. So if you get the same effect 4 to 6 times a month without having to increase the dose then I would say you don't need to cycle off until your reach the point you are needing more and more.
Wardi77If you are really just taking them 4-6 times a month, then I would say there is no need to cycle off, BUT if you do end up taking them 4-6 times a week, then YES cycle off or the stims will eventually have no effect on you. I take jack3d and I go through a jug and discontinue use for a month then repeat.

I also cut out ALL stimulants during the off-time. This includes coffee, energy drinks, etc. If you don't cut out these other stimulants you are not giving your receptors a chance to clear as effectively. Don't take a break from your preworkout drink by replacing it with some energy drink. I see this all the time happening in my gym. Defeats the purpose of the off-time.
what preworkout are you taking?
fuark0DS Craze.
never cared for it personally, but should be all sweet as the others said unless the effects start to wear off as you're taking a ridiculous amount those times a month you do take it which would be unhealthy anyway you should be all sweet, to continue taking as is, if you're taking it that little you'd almost be sweet without it, or do you like me have days where you're just zonked? I like to change up preworkouts every now and again at any rate as there's always new ones coming out (:
