Pre-workout...try anything by TriOPlex or Oh Yeagh! Or my favorite...MHP's Up Your Mass bar...scratch the others...go w/ Up Your Mass.

If your dieting then no, to bad, but these are good, I heard the label claims were abit off??

Tri O plex are good but I agree they really make you feel full. I like Myoplex, or steel bars just for an occasional snack or if im in a jam for a meal.

Best suggestion yet....in all honestly, you could do a 3 musketeers and a QT of skim milk and be better off....a protein bar might had a titch less sugar, but not much.....complete junk...I have 4-5 cases at home, just sitting there........havent had the urge to crack em open.

I like the Biotest bars, they taste pretty good but Biotest has been raising the prices recently so they are getting pretty spendy (as all Biotests products are).

Post by: D-Jay on July 02, 2006, 08:55:40 PM: I'm going to go with Steel Bar by ABB. Of course this depends on your goals......I like these as a pre-workout bar due to the simple carbs and protein.

Not to mention....they don't break the bank. Nice taste and good source of readily available carbs.
