Definitely will look into your supplement line.. some of the people I follow for nutrition advice and workout advice I like to try their supplements to see if there is any difference in quality between them and something you’d buy at Walmart but good video again Layne.. I’ve learned alt since subscribing to your channel and watching videos

I’m purchasing the pre-workout on 2 factors alone: 1.) reputable information that I cross checked 2.) your continual reinforcing that no supplement will compensate for poor sleep and nutrition. We need more messaging like this.

Thank u man , people should learn more from you

Hey man I love the transparency on this video! I also really like that there’s no creatine in this as that’s something you should add on your own if you want to do that over time and can actually get the cumulative benefits. You just got a sub and I’ll be being this to try it out!

Great👍 Had a couple of them separately at home. Mixed 'em up with some other stuff pre workout. I think I felt a bit more energy anyway 🏋️

Very informative, I look forward to testing your product.

What's the ratio on the citrulline malate? Usually if it's not specified, I'll just assume it's 1:1 but would hope you did 2:1?

After seeing this video I ordered this pre workout. I have been taking it for six days now before my workouts. I can absolutely with 100% complete honesty attest that everything Layne states in this video about his pre workout formula is accurate. This pre workout formula is nothing like any other I have tried and I tried about 9 others. The energy you feel from it is very different. The only way I can describe it is mellow energy NO over the top jacked up wired feeling BUT massive great energy. It also does give you that "good feeling" that he talks about. Its kind of hard to describe how great this product is. I am not affiliated in any way with Layne and I am not being paid for this endorsement, just wanted to point out that this is a real endorsement. I felt the need to tell it like it is because there are a lot of snake oil salesmen in the supplement industry just like all other industries. I assure you Layne is not one of them. Try this product you will not be disappointed, you can thank me later.

Thoughts on agmatine sulfate in pre workout products?

Could you do a video on your recovery supplement as well Layne? I would be interested in trying both. I really like Rhodiola as well. I take it as a pre workout with a coffee before training quite often

I appreciate any dosage of l-theanine if it’s equivalently dosed with caffeine because I find it does reduce the negative aspects of caffeine… but I honestly love the crash from caffeine alone. I workout late at night so if I go hard for two hours, the best feeling is to smash that pillow and pass out right away.

Hey, maybe a late comment but I have an important question about caffeine. I am taking my pre workout 2 times a week. You said that you have 300 mg of caffeine in it and that you should have 300-400 mg. I am 17 years old and I only have 200 mg caffeine pills. Should I take 2 of them or can I split one pill into 2 so I can take one and a half? Would appreciate an answer! If that matters, my pre workout includes: L-Citrulline 5g L-Theanine 300 mg L-Tyrosine 3g (Koffein 200 mg)

Thoughts about STEM-free pre-workouts?

Just ordered some of your pre-workout pretty happy to find a good company selling what you actually need 🤙🏻

For those willing to shell out the money, getting everything on Amazon individually in bulk cuts serving cost. I can get each ingredient for $140 total pre tax, or about $14 per 20 servings (his pre has 20 servings and cost $39.99 from what I saw online)

Thoughts on nitrates in pre workouts? Sodium potassium nitrate etc or even beet root

id buy this if it wasnt for the caffeine. Youre right about rhodiola though. its awesome. been on it for 2 years mostly for cortisol control. (ties with caffeine sensitivity i think) tried to cut it out just to see and only saw negatives.

I've never used any kind of supplements, and at this point in my training I don't think I really need them. But if I would ever consider to use them. Yours are my first pick. No questions asked.

Hey! Just picked up this pre-workout… any thoughts on taking this before cardio, such as a 5k run on treadmill? Thanks!

Good video but i disagree with the Beta Alanine part. All of the studies ive read say it doesnt have any imidiate effect on performance, you have to take it over time and saturate your muscles, same as creatine. Even when you do that it only gives small benefits to HIT style workouts or sets lasting longer than 60 seconds. But hey, everyone can decide for themself if its worth the extra price and the itchy feeling.

Unfortunately not available in the UK. Any good alternatives?

Is there a caffeine free version? I work graveyards and lift after my shift , then I usually go bed after around 3 hours after my work out !

Every prework out I have ever had makes me nauseous - headaches and sometimes vomiting. Any ideas on what I could be allergic/intolerant to! It’s not beta alanine or caffeine dosage as I have used preworkout without BA and have energy drinks with 150mg of caffeine. TIA

what do you think about creatine nitrate and arginine nitrate and bcaa nitrate? this creatine is most effective form ever.Regards from Poland

Hi Dr Norton, Really love your channel and i have been a follower of your teachings and theories for over a decade. I have question about one specific ingredient which is the L-DOPA that you added in your pre-workout. Do you think that it is safe to use L-DOPA regularly especially if you are someone like myself that takes pre-workout 4 to 6 times weekly. I have done extensive research on it and found that it has major side effects if taken regularly. As you may already know L-DOPA is used for Parkinson's and has also been reported to cause psychological effects if taken for a long period even at small dosages of 100-150mg. Can you elaborate on this matter and specifically what your thoughts are on L-DOPA. thank you

I do my own blend. First 3 ingredients included in simmilar doses. i will try the this 2 more stuff. Cant buy yours because You knew, Europe.

I think you meant 150 mg caffeine and not 1500 mgs 😂 I've always thought that about putting creatine in pre-workouts though, seems pointless as a one off and most serious gym goers will likely already take creatine and pre-workout should be more of a secondary supplement. Me personally, I just stick with caffeine for heavy workouts on top of my daily creatine

I formulate my own pre-workout so I can manipulate what's in it. From my experience, a shitty one, yes it does lose effectiveness overtime. I went for as up to 600mg and it didn't feel like I had anything. Decreased it to 400 for a week, then 200 for another week, then went free for 4 days. Then shot back for 300, felt like the first time I ever drank coffee. My humble advice is to stay caffeine free during your rest days, or take off caffeine 4 days every 2 weeks. You can try and add L-Theanine to your caffeine if you feel like it does nothing to you. But don't go Rich Piana mode like I did. Especially when you're 5'7" and 150 lbs.

Thanks a lot for not including creatine! It exacerbates my hair loss (if you're prone to MPB you should also stay away from it unless you're on a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor like finasteride), so I haven't been able to use any pre-workouts blends before I really wish you would skip the stimulant (caffeine) though, since a lot of people work out in the evenings and it has a 6hr half life. But hey, I guess no size fits all. Also love the transparency on the ingredients.

@biolayne1

3 жыл бұрын

It has small acute effects but in order to get the max benefits you need to consistently take it. Great point

So I'm a bit confused here. You said you didn't want to put creatine in the pre because it doesn't have an immediate effect, which I 100% get and personally I prefer that as well, but you then put Beta-Alanine in the pre, which doesn't grant an immediate performance boost because, like Creatine, it has to be built up in your body to a saturation of 179 grams, typically over a period of one month, before a lot of the effects and benefits you mentioned in the video even come into play. I guess I'm just confused why you would add one but not the other, especially when Beta-Alanine has the annoying side effect of jitters and itching which can be quite distracting during a workout.

Beta-Alanine doesn't actually work unless you take 3.2g every day. It needs to saturate your body for it to even have an effect just like Creatine Monohydrates. And even then, as you said in the video, it works only if you perform sets that last more than 45s (60s according to Sean Nalewanyj). If we don't take the pre-workout every day, then the Beta-Alanine doesn't even have an effect, and even if it does, most of us would not benefit from it anyway, so we're better off without it.

I have never felt as good during my lifting sessions as I have with that pre-workout (Mesomorph) and have been searching to find a product to give me those "feels" again.
