I work mid night shift and rely heavily on caffiene to get throughthe week. I think Monster sucks though.
-
The blue kind with like 2 g of sugar. Don't be a fatass.

They have a better marketing image than any bodybuilding formula

Total garbage. Can't drink any if that kinda crap.

Meh, I think its all hyped up bullshit!
TA NA KA
-
I don't feel the caffeine in them, but I enjoy the lo carb or absolutely zero with a meal sometime. Taste a lot better than diet soda
-
I drink these quite a bit, they have quite a few B vitamins in them which is fine but its also a shitload of caffeine. The thing is when your using any kind of stimulant to train (even caffeine) your activating the flight or flight response whether you realize it or not and this can lead to overtraining the CNS and adrenal fatigue. Never get yourself amped up for a lift unless your maxing out and going for a personal record. Save the caffeine for the days when your maxing out and going for a personal record.

140-160mg of caffeine per can. That's not much at all. A medium cup of Dunkin Donuts coffee beats that
-
Total fuckIN, waste of money, please tell me you know better than to buy that crap.
Think of the awesome nootropic stack you could buy if you added the cash up by the end of the month.
If you drink it because you like the taste, ok, I understand that. But if you drink it because you think you're getting some high performance pre workout, mental increasing capability liquid, you are strongly mistaken and do not know or appreciate the value of money.

There's a bloke at work drinks a few cans every day, needs to get his fucking money back as he's still the laziest bastard in the place

WoooSSSHHHHHHHH
I switched to Rockstar. Once a day.
-
Motocross trash event are highly sponsored by these guys. Much like Red Bull for every other extreme sport. The obnoxious in your face logos when watching the Xgames, is enough to make you turn on the golf channel.
Both drinks are overhyped, but the bombardment of logos in your face literally makes me buy a Red Bull every now and then. I'm brainwashed. They don't taste that good and are brutally overpriced. I make a strong cup of coffee that would equal 3 bulls easy for 80 cents.
-

-
what people often fail to realize is red bull has the same amount of caffeine a coffee. Taurine is not a stimulant as all these dumb ass companies advertise it as. It's to actually calm down anxiety. Trust me on this one...
Only thing that gives it some power is the glucoronolactone. You can buy 200gr of it for $7. It will give you way over 100 servings...
Biggest horseshit of a scam red bull, fuck the money they must make of the price they ask for, lol... Sure they advertise a lot, but still... Huge rip off and used to piss them off with my knowledge when I was a doorman and the reps would pass by and offer them to me, lol... Would totally school them, stupid morons..

i don't drink red bull, just dig their media house.

assault got the best taste, low carb one isnt bad if youre on a diet and want something sweet.
as for energy etc and all that stuff never felt it.
i hate red bull, too sweet.

Then u dont know your getbigger. Grown men dosent drink SHIT from SHITTY company made to FOOL children.

This.
The Red Bull reps in the UK wont drink their own product because of the shit in it and advise their close ones not to go near it.
Now what does that say?
-
People who drink such toxic waste do not belong on a bodybuilding forum. If you take your food, body and health seriously, then you don't drink sugar and/or artificial sweetener infested crap. Sports nutrition isn't better than say orange juice. Or take a quality coffee for cafeine
-
The only people I see with that shit are the carny types who buy their food at gas stations.
-
I just get sugar free, mango flavour relentless once a day at most because it tastes so good.
-
Utter crap. Made for the lower classes. They drink this shit in the morning with a mars bar and call it breakfast.

Never tasted that, just the green and blue.
-
I would drink snot like that when I was younger...but now as a grown up coffee lover whenever I need a pick up I'd like to enjoy it in a coffee format.

Whoah ,why getting so intense buddy ? sounds like you found a dead rat in your last can of Monster papi.....
I haven't drink the Monster "energy" myself, but I've seen a lot of bodybuilders, cap side ways,affliction shirt with biceps bursting , working at nutrition stores and yet with a glowing can of monster drink on hand right on the counter, so I thought it was valid to ask .....
Btw, With that lack of thick skin you obviously wont land a job on this growing industry .
Thanks for saying I must be very young
WoooSSSHHHHHH TA NA KAAAAAAAA

I never knew a carbonated drink with caffeine could make people so upset :'(
Posters are most likely 70+ years old with more silverfish in their studio apartment than dollars in their wallet. Oh brother
-
I don't like them. A few of the coffee ones are good, the others are way too sweet.
I'll take regular coffee instead.
They work great, just not my thing.

Used to consume a lot of coffee on a daily basis and build a noticable tolerance... decided to drop coffee in its entirety and only consume limited amounts of caffeine per day, thus; one can of monster max. a day, quite like the Rossi special they've got going on atm
(https://www.monsterenergy.com/uploads_image/2014/06/13/p18qa5dqpuosjp1a11bv5hbkjoe_L_0x512.jpg)
Made the switch
-
I can drink several espresso cups a day if I wanted, but I can't drink several monster cans a day, they make me tweak and feel like I just took poison or drugs. Wait a minute....
I love the taste, and the cold fresh breez as it goes down my throat, feels good. Very unhealthy but it feels fucking good!
-
never had a monster, red bull, etc.....have a cup of coffee in the morning.
-
i genuinely enjoy the taste of the white and orange sugar free monsters. i could care less about the caffeine, eca is still a thing. if they turned it into a sodastream flavour i'd buy it
-
I had a bunch of Mexicans painting my house, that's all they drank. Fucking tweaked out cholos.

A hole in your stomach? I use those as caffeine gives me the shits for sure. Tabs don't have the crash that comes when you drink coffee either.
You must have tried some weird brand or something or possible they just don't suite you.

My main point is... why spend tons of money on a stupid drink when you can simply buy caffeine pills? BTW, too much caffeine in any form is not good for you.
You must be a very young man... keep on living.

I consume 300mg in two doses and that is a very reasonable daily caffeine consumption.
I know too much is not good for you, not as young or uninformed you may think I am but agree with your main point and is what I'M saying here.
One of those drinks costs more than what I use in tabs per month.

I don't have as much energy during the workout, but I actually get better feel/pumps without the caffeine. Too many are hooked on it... just a big crutch.

A Getbigger trolling at the Arnold this year.... you can see him drinking a Monster Energy, at around the one minute mark

Badass personality and tatts
WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHH BE YE KE

Its baffling all of these supplement companies. I mean, seriously, how many different ways are there to make a protein shake? ::) ::)

Well, the shitty ass feeling from not taking it is not worth it to me. Also, 300mg is perfectly safe, you can't possibly tell me it's dangerous, so "hooked" is a harsh word as it often refers to negativity, when in my situation, it does nothing but positive.
Guess antibiotics are a "crutch" to you in you have an infection with your way of thinking, lol...

You're addicted to caffeine and cannot workout without it = crutch.
The antibiotics comparison ::) ??? ... idiot deluxe.

what "nootropic stack" do you recommend?
-
what "nootropic stack" do you recommend?
tyrosine and dmae would be a must.
stuff like vinpocetine, huperzine can help.
Those are my main favorites as they work right away. I never train without tyrosine, dmae, caffeine and ephedrine.
-
Many will be dead 20 years from now from all these energy drinks. Stimulants being used like never before. No regulation or oversight. Full of God knows what.
-
Not healthy
-
My old man has a saying about these types of products:
"they have to spend loads advertising it, BECAUSE it is no good for you."
Not always true, but the majority of adverts on TV relating to food / drinks are for completely synthesised shit, stuff that does not appear in nature, crammed full of artificial sweeteners and E numbers.
Is it any wonder that kids are bouncing off the walls, cancer rates are up and conception rates are down?
-
Bottom line is thats its just caffeine. Coffee, Monster, Red Bull, pills...
Same shit, you cant say one is superior to another because the only really active ingredient is the caffeine.

Maybe not dead, but they'll have very serious health problems from years of very high caffeine intake. Artificial sweeteners are toxic as well... they cause neurological problems.

You will when you get prostate or pancreatic cancer.

Toxic is the one of the most overused terms out there. Everything is toxic at a certain dose. Go drink 100 gallons of water or take 1000 grams of vitamin C. Any of the studies I've seen of artificial sweeteners causing any sort of health problems in rats, showed that they were given extreme dosages that would be similar to someone drinking 100 diet cokes in one sitting for weeks

Exactly.
People don't understand the "subjective" lab reports.
I doubt anyone is going to consume a high enough concentration to have issues.

i certainly don't think that artificial sweeteners are good for you, however you may be correct in that it would take an astronomical and unrealistic amount to cause damage to humans. Probably has some to do with a persons genetics as well. I always find it amusing when people say "I don't drink diet soda because I don't want cancer", yet they consume 150-200 grams of sugar a day. I do believe in the coming years, there will be a well known link to high sugar consumption and disease. Sugar is in almost everything!
-
I drink a sugar-free Rockstar almost every morning when I drive to work. I'm addicted to the taste, if they made a drink that tasted the same without the caffeine I'd buy it and drink it all day. I was never a huge fan of Monster though, their flavours taste weird to me, almost too sweet.

I know what you mean. I don't know much more than your average person who works out and pays attention to nutrition, but I feel like there's so many people that are worried about GMOs, artificial sweeteners, gluten(with no allergies to it, and dairy(with no allergies to it) and yet they're still overweight which is in my opinion seems more damaging to your overall health than having an artificial sweetened drink once in a while. The fear spreads like wild fire thanks to social media and treats some random guy's college thesis as a proven study. Things like the "Johns Hopkins" cancer study was bogus and the plastic bottle one as well, but I saw it posted numerous times. People rather not check their facts and pass this garbage off and help stir up the fear without even knowing where the info came from. I see it all the time with GMOs nowadays. I always look to see the source, and it's always some hippie website selling their own agenda.
-
the good with the bad. if energy drinks makes you post better shit on getbig its worth it, if it makes you do a hundred threads per day like army of one or post threads of black genetics like whatever his name then i say stay off it

I work with this whale of a woman who talks about all this crap every day. She eats "health" food, but she's a fat pig that doesn't even workout. This bitch is like 250 easy, smells like baby powder. A few times she commented on my diet coke (oh brother), she told me it was poison. I'd cunt punch the bitch if i didn't like my job.

speaking of carbonated drinks, I've seemed to notice a pattern with Mountain Dew lovers. I have never seen a Mountain dew shirt on an in shape person. It's like you wear it and it announces "I am out of shape"

It's cause they only make Mountain Dew tshirts in 4x, 5x and 6x.

I have watched my grandparents and parents pound pot after pot of coffee everyday for years on end. How much caffeine is in a pot of coffee and why are they not dead. No difference with these energy drinks, it's all caffeine in the end. Now these preworkout supplements with the methamphetamine analogs i think is another story. I like a sugar free rockstar occasionally, I really like the fruit punch flavor. Other than that it's black coffee.

Monster Zero is the shit.

There are some interesting facts on the internet regarding this product and the company that manufactures it which I'm gonna post below which may be of interest to some of youn GetBiggers.
I believe that the pioneers of this product were Mr and Mrs Hansen who had a small apple orchard in the northern part of California by the Russian River.
We used to stop there at the start of every summer vacation to pick up a couple of gallons of their home made apple-cider rwhich they sold from small highway stand and if I recall right Mr Hansen would usually sit at that stand with a cast on his leg due to the fact that he preferrred his private stash of Hard-Cider (my uncle who would never turn down a drink called it "SUI-CIDER" so it muswt have packed a decent wallop) and poor Mr Hansen had a difficult time negotiating the numerous, old wooden steps that led from the front door of his house to the roadside cider stand.
But I am only 80% sure that Mr Hansen is the one and the same, but here are some MONSTER "facts" as found on a WAIKIKIPEDIA site.
Monster Beverage Corporation has been criticized for its policy to sue companies or groups which use the word "Monster" or the letter "M" in their marketing for trademark infringement.
Examples include the aquarium hobbyist site MonsterFishKeepers.com, a beverage review site which published an unfavorable review of the Monster Energy drink and a Vermont microbrewery which marketed a beer named "Vermonster". Monster Beverage dropped the lawsuit against the microbrewery due to the negative publicity the lawsuit generated.
In August 2012, the Beastie Boys filed a lawsuit against the company for copyright infringement over Monster's use of their music in an online campaign.
In December 2011, 14 year old Anais Fournier died of "cardiac arrhythmia due to caffeine toxicity" after drinking two 710 ml cans of Monster Energy drink containing a combined amount of ~475 mg caffeine.
Fournier had a pre-existing heart condition, as well as Ehlers–Danlos syndrome.
In October 2012, her parents sued the company.
Monster has insisted that its energy drink played no role in Fournier's death.
A Freedom of Information Request revealed that from 2004 to 2012 the Food and Drug Administration had received reports of five deaths occurring after drinking Monster Energy.
The reports did not prove a causal link between the drink and any health problems
ONE GETBIGGER IN PARTICULAR MAY APPRECIATE THIS ONE ..... A common story circulating on the internet alleges that the Monster Energy logo resembles three Hebrew vavs, and that since the value for a vav in Hebrew numerology is 6, and the Biblical Number of the Beast is 666, the logo reveals Monster Energy to be a Satanic drink.
The Hoax Slayer website considered this reasoning to be "stretching credibility well beyond breaking point".
Similarly, TruthOrFiction.com disputes these claims as "Fiction" based on an interview with McLean Design, the design firm that created the Monster M logo on behalf of Hansen.
-
I get these at Dollar Tree. They're the only ones that taste decent (refrigerated), and it's not a lot of volume. Probably not hard core enough for you guys. Not sure what the "diet" means. I get that one as opposed to the other Stacker shots just because of the taste.

I gotta apologize if this has been mentioned earlier but I have not read all the input on this subject, but here are the product ingredients according to Waikiperia:
The packaging usually contains a warning label advising consumers against drinking more than 48 oz per day (16 oz per day in Australia). The UK and Europe do not have these warning labels. The drinks are not recommended for pregnant women or people sensitive to caffeine.
The ingredients include carbonated water, sucrose, glucose, citric acid, natural flavors, taurine, sodium citrate, color added, panax ginseng root extract, L-carnitine, caffeine, sorbic acid, benzoic acid, niacinamide, sodium chloride, glucuronolactone, inositol, guarana seed extract, pyridoxine hydrochloride, sucralose, riboflavin, maltodextrin, and cyanocobalamin.
Thanks to Wikipedia for this info.

Tried the fruit punch recently and was pleasantly surprised. I'll have a zero cal energy drink here and there, but it's usually just for taste purposes instead of water. The it's "poison" talk is fucking laughable.

Rock star has twice the caffeine for the same price, and the white Zeros taste the same as the monsters
3 for $5 makes a good pre workout with ephedrine hcl

Tried the fruit punch recently and was pleasantly surprised. I'll have a zero cal energy drink here and there, but it's usually just for taste purposes instead of water.The it's "poison" talk is fucking laughable.
Said by someone who no doubt drinks alcohol. Lol at dying from drinking two monsters aswell shit genetics of peace.

I can drink several espresso cups a day if I wanted, but I can't drink several monster cans a day, they make me tweak and feel like I just took poison or drugs.
Right on. Not just caffeine imo. I can drink coffee fine but the last time I had a Red Bull I was, shall we say, slightly short of temper. Unless the Greasers and the Soshes invite me to a rumble, I don't see any further use for the stuff.

Yeah! And not only that, energy drinks also cause liver fat, think about that. Def not healthy. But I like the taste :P, especially when it's cold and you're thirsty as fuck it's amazing.
I wouldn't be surprised if one energy drink takes away one day out of your lifespan tho

So what do you miss out on? Some dusty old retirement home pussy? A toothless old hag who thinks it's 1965, keeps asking you "Larry, where's the cat?" while you're bumping grey pubes? I'll pass.

Its baffling all of these supplement companies. I mean, seriously, how many different ways are there to make a protein shake? ::) ::)
True, but if you market it correctly, you make millions, possibly billions.
Look how many "new" drinks hit the market each year, which are all just combinations of sugar and water. Vitamin Water's a great example - just the same mix of crap, sold for 4B.

I know a couple who got taken for 50k by another couple (and I think there was some swapping afoot) when the couple I don't know pitched a buy in scheme for a vitamin water thing. So they got $50k in cash and were promptly never heard from again, lol.
I don't know these people well, I swear.
