Cheap (Yet Very Effective) Pre-Workout Supplement


Go to any drug store and ask the pharmacists if you can buy some empty capsules. They will sell them to you for just a few cents each (you need to buy at least 30). On your kitchen counter (clean the surface first!) take ordinary baking soda, stuff the capsules with baking soda until you have 30 in total. Before your next high-rep training session, take all 30 capsules 30 minutes before training on an empty stomach.

Chemically speaking, baking soda is a "base" which means it will neutralize an "acid". Since high-rep training produces acid in the muscle you are training in the form of lactic acid, taking a "base" will neutralize the acid and allow you to not experience the "burn' that normally comes with high-rep training. Be careful though because you don't want to push a mucle too far past the point where you normally stop because of the pain associated with the burn, as you dong so could injury your muscle. But if you monitor it closely, you can notice an immediate imporvement in stamina (the number of reps you can get on a set). Stack this with some Sugar-Free Red Bull or REDLINE EXTREME energy drink or one serving of NO XPLODE and you're in for a hell of a workout!
