A few doubts about preworkout stack

Original post in this thread

faxmulder · 1 points

Hi guys,

I'm assembling a basic preworkout stack:

* agmatine
* citrulline
* taurine
* cordyceps (cycled with ginseng and Rhodiola)
* beta alanine

What do you think of this stack? Anything missing in your opinion?

I have a few open points:

1. Adding something else for energy, such as dynamine or a B complex would be overkill? Consider that usually I'm working out at around 6:30pm

2. Which are in your experience the best supps for enhancing muscle growth? I've seen that Tonkgat Ali, shilajit, forskolin, tribulus are sometimes advised.
Also ashwagandha KSM-66 and creatine, but I'm concerned about potential anhedonia from ash (even if it could help a lot with my anxiety and overthinking) and losing hair with creatine

3. Could Smart PS be a good solution for limiting cortisol spikes after training?

Thanks a treat!

Thanks man for your feedback! A few questions:

* epicatechin sounds great, I think it could stack well with rephyll and tart cherry. Are you going to release capsules anytime soon?

* speaking of PS, do you think that it could help also with anxiety and overthinking issues? I was thinking about trying ashwagandha as well for these issues

* off-topic but do you think you guys will release also inositol?

We already made them into tablets. The issue is that our coating company went out of business before they could enteric coat them, so we have them here uncoated. We are trying to figure out what to do. We could grind them up and put them into enteric coated capsules, or we can wait till our coating machine gets here and coat them ourselves.

speaking of PS, do you think that it could help also with anxiety and overthinking issues? I was thinking about trying ashwagandha as well for these issues

Yeah, it can help some people with that. Ashwagandha and PS are a good combo in those cases.

off-topic but do you think you guys will release also inositol?

The issue is price. For us to make it properly, it would cost us more than some others are selling it retail. I am not sure people would pay 3X for ours. It would just look like we are overpriced, when in reality our costs are just higher.

We can't get 1/4 of the price. That's my point. Our cost for raw materials is not as low as you think. We just don't have the gross margins you think we do. I really wish we did. It would make my mission a lot easier. An
