    Very good video; I've been studying nootropic and pre-workout formulas for a while now but haven't considered buying any because of their insane price tags. However, I'm pretty sensitive to caffeine and it usually messes up my sleep pretty bad. Do you think L-citrullline at 7g and Betaine at 2.5g would have a noticible effect without the caffeine? I'm also considering pairing L-theanine and caffeine but also don't know if the L-theanine suppresses the caffeine jitters I get. Thanks a ton

  • @TheFitChemist

    Hey there! I think dosing L-citrulline at 7 g and betaine at 2.5 g would give you the benefits, but I'm not sure what you mean by "noticeable effect". These are not nootropics so I don't think you'd feel an increase of focus or reduced perception of fatigue like you do with a traditional pre-workout. These papers seems to suggest L-theanine with caffeine may be beneficial but I'm not sure about the jitters part. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18681988/ pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21040626/ Also, this paper suggests L-theanine can counteract some negative side effects of caffeine when it comes to sleep. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22285321/#:~:text=L%2Dtheanine%20has%20been%20reported,the%20excitatory%20effects%20of%20caffeine.

    Hey Tyler! Great vid, very informative and resourceful! I had a quick question, could you mix all of the supplements in bulk in one container and stir it up good? Using the correct ratios of weight for each supplement so you get the correct serving size? Or do some of these supplements have varying density’s which will cause them to sink to the bottom of a container with mixed supplements? No worries if you don’t know I just think it’d be easiest to do it this way!

  • @TheFitChemist

    @TheFitChemist

    2 жыл бұрын

    You can do this but proceed with caution. Unless you can blend everything together perfectly you run the risk of not achieving full mixing and thus you’ll have some servings that are under dosed and some that are over dosed. I wouldn’t do this method if you’re adding caffeine powder. I recommend keeping caffeine in pill form so you know exactly how much you’re getting!

    Thanks! Bulk supplements has some 200 mg caffeine pills available on Amazon which I would say is a pretty good dose for a PWO (some commercial pre-workouts go up to 350 mg). You could also do a coffee before the gym, but I prefer the pills because I know exactly how much caffeine I'm getting and can adjust accordingly. If you want to know more about recommended caffeine dosages I did an entire video on it.

    The good news about making your own is that you can adjust each ingredient to your liking. I looked at psychotic's nutrition label and there are some red flags to me... 1.) It's all a proprietary blend - big no no. You don't know how much of each ingredient is in there 2.) The total amount for 1 serving is 4.5 g, which means the ingredients are severely underdosed. Citrulline malate alone should be 6 g

Ever have this where you feel just cranky the day after taking it and not quite mentally present kind of a brain fog is the best I can describe it?? Anyway to get off this roller coaster I bought Beta Alanine,Citrilline Malate,coffee 200mg capsules and some Thaline(void of Nootropics in Pulse) and some grape flavour drops to kill the taste.Have yet to mix it as I need to get a measurer for mg or grams....Any suggestions?I tried to slo mo the video to see exactly how much of the Alinine and Citrillune you were measuring out.

    Hey Mark! I don't think this warrants a video. You would simply mix all of your ingredients and multiply each individual dose by 30 to get 30 servings. You can get the total weight of the pre-workout and divide that by 30 to see how much you should weigh out per serving. The reason I'm cautious to recommend this method is that there may not be thorough enough mixing whichever method you choose, meaning some days the ingredients will be overdosed and some days the ingredients will be underdosed.

    It depends on what size of each supplement you buy. If you buy them in bulk it will obviously be more of an upfront cost, but it will save you money in the long term.
