Tried "Redline"? for an energy drink?
« on: July 13, 2008, 07:01:57 PM »
Has anyone tried those new "Redline" or "Redline Extreme" energy drinks? Are they good for a per-workout drink?

What else is good to use?

hard on the heart, especially when combined with weight lifting.

it raises your blood pressure, so if you have a precondition, stay away from it.

also, NEVER mix it with ephedrine.

  Redline is one of the best and strongest energy drinks out there.

atlarge nutrition's nitor gives you a good bump without feeling jittery like ephedrine does...but alot of people love redline at my gym. I tried it and personally don't like it but to each their own.

yup. beta agonist with a agaonist ( i think thats what the yohimbine is )..they are super synergistic..they are eachothers rate limiting step... its like...    smashing insulin and blasting glucagon.. or soemthing kinda saimilar..the two are counter forces; they work together

Because you mentioned RedBull and Ephedrine to someone who wants to buy a drink containing Yohimbine.

You guys are really funny sometimes, maybe he is 50 years old and obese. If he started working out, it would be a strain on his body, but if he added ECY, it could kill him.

Many guys here are really easy on the stimulants.

Not even close DK.

I just asked the question to see what y'all think. Didn't say I was gonna do Ephedra (prolly can't find any anyway) and the Yohimbine.

New doesn't equal stupid bro.

sorry for the confusion, i didn't mean to say you are stupid, i was saying people are giving thoughtless advice.

It was more a kind of "what IF he was fat and old..." sort of thing.

Some people here just have the tendency to recommend stimulants as if they were chocolate.

As far as energy drinks…
I love the ABB Speed Shots.
But use caution if your body is overly sensitive to high amounts of caffeine (I’ll consider 250mg high since that’s the amount in one).

They’re only 8oz, non-carbonated, not bad tasting, and not loaded with sugar.

Also, if you drink some kind of protein shake before your workout, consider adding some instant coffee to that. If you like coffee you’ll probably like the taste, and you’ll get a bit of caffeine for energy that way.

No worries for me, but I do think that's a valid point. I ask about this stuff because the Redbull/Monster/Amped drinks do nothing for me, and this stuff kicks my arse (in a proverbial, good way). I'm just a young buck, but with this stuff I can see how someone who's way out of shape or not thinking could get into trouble.

Actually, since this stuff works, I can see it getting banned in the intermediate future.

I'm not against stimulants per se as well, but i see a problem in marketing yohimbine containing drinks as energy drinks or "sodas".

If it is in pills, people think it's medication, if it's in a drink someone might think drinking liters of it is safe, which it isn't.

That's my only concern.

Actually, I think these aren't really marketed as sodas. This is the same company that makes the '5 hour energy' shots you see at truck stops and convienence stores.  They aren't really the best tasting things out there and it would be recreationally consumed, with the price and taste....

Contrast them to the Monster-type drinks. Go take a walk downtown and take a look at how many teeney-bopper high school kids are chugging those. There is actually talk here in Cali about REGULATING them...  Like making buying them akin to buying alcohol, but the age is 18.....
