Title: Caffeine addict - without it, I get headaches
Post by: the trainer on April 30, 2014, 12:58:10 PM
I think I am becoming an addict if I dont have caffeine for one day I start to get headaches, must be that dam nano vapor that I take before workout but I need the energy in the mornings, not sure what to do here.

Honestly, just take a break from it.  No real other way around it.  You will find after a few days, you will have more energy in the gym than you thought you would.  There is a big psychological component to the ritual of the pre workout.

Swap out the nano vapor with a couple of shots of expresso. Then cut out coffee during the rest of the day. Then -- if needed -- deal with the expresso. I am also addicted to caffeine, but it doesn't vex me much. It's part of me now.

Caffeine addiction is quite physiological.

I have two tubs of nano vapor cost me about 100 bucks at gnc I cant just throw that shit away, maybe I should just finish it then dont buy anymore.

Or just take half the dose for a few weeks, then quarter dose, etc.. until you finish the tub and wean yourself off it that way.

On a side-note, preworkout supps are expensive! $100 for some caffeine and a few aminos?! I'm glad I drink coffee or a sugar-free monster preworkout, very cheap  ;D

If you just can't go without your morning cup of coffee, go half decaff for a couple of weeks. Then 3/4 decaff. Try lower caffeine stuff like tea instead. The idea is to slowly come off it without just dropping it altogether because that will lead to a head fog. Same with your pre-workout - go with 1 scoop, half scoop etc

I haven't had caffeine for probably 10 years or so (and yes that includes chocolate) and I'll tell you that the first month was nothing but nasty headaches and now I don't even miss it.

Thats nothing what if you wanted to increase your testosterone, the animal hardcore cycle consists of animal stack and animal test, the price is a whopping $290 for a 2 month cycle at gnc.

And caffeine can be tapered off.


Good luck trying that with booze or ciggs! Failure will prevail

2 small cups of coffee plus a couple 200mg caffeine tablets first thing in the morning and then another 200mg sometime during midday.

Nothing too extreme but I'm with some of the others in this thread when I say it might be a bit too much.

I was off caffeine for over 1 month cause it got to the point where I could take 400mg and felt nothing, so yesterday I took 100mg and felt a bit of a buzz and today I felt nothing with the 100mg so its like my tolerance is going to build up fast again, what do you guys take for energy.

It's funny you mentioned this

because the right to die often becomes the duty to die when it comes to posters who suck as much as joon doing a line of gonnorhea laced anthrax off the herpes sore of a big black cock

you have the duty

you are the chosen one

fuck this advice

just run clen and ephedrine and yohimbe and t3 and know what you're doing. not all at the same time. save the t3 for conjunction with hgh obviously. but i'm not getting into "Advices" here/i'm here for the faggat poster above

when you get into the actual amphetamines you're essentially sucking as much black dick as shitzo would if he could afford a plane ticket bus ticket to go see a kai green show

yeah.

nobody uses amphetamines for pre workout..

if you think clen cramp is bad. jesus man. adderall? that's amphetamine salt.

horrible advice. run your 120 mcg of clen a day with your 100-200 mg tren ace a day

i have no qualms with that

but i will speak against using adderall to GET UP, or for example percocet for MUSCLE SORENESS

too many BB and fitness people are closet drug addicts.

not talking about steroids. talking about pills narcotics etc

Wasn't advice, just what I've done, sometimes do... depends on how you train. And yes many competitors are drug addicts. I'm just being honest, why lie.  To many people do. And yes most are addicted to pills.

Adderall? Seems a bit heavyweight to get it up for a lift.
A typical workout, at 170 bodyweight might be working up with doubles to 385, 400 if pushing it .All pauses on chest  start at 225 5 second breaks between sets.  Followed by weighted dips start at 5 45 lb plates and down to 3. 5 second breaks between sets.  Then incline 315 for triples. 
Never more than 5 second breaks. Finish with tris and done.. With the adderall and yohimbe finish fresh. Sometimes go flip the tire... without it
Fuck that lol... you never tire...
Wasn't advice. Question was what do people use. That what I use. And believe it or not, most competing on elite levels use pills.... it's ugly, but true

The more you take, caffeine stops becoming a training aid and becomes a crutch.  It happens very quickly.  Most chase the high and need to take more and more.  Very soon your stomach will have a hole in it.
