Redbull before a workout, Who drinks them???

I am trying to lean out right now, so I was a little leary of drinking them before a workout because they have about 36g of sugars and 30g of carbs.

But I tried one today, and I had a great workout. You probably burn most of the calories during the workout anyways right? And if it helps you have a more intense workout, they can't hurt right? How many of you guys drink them before a workout? REDROCK

ECA instead, no sugar or carbs. Red Bulls are great when mixed with vodka, but darn expensive at the bar.

If you do some lite cardio before and after your workout, most of the carbs and sugar will be burned off. I prefer the Sobe Adrenalin Rush, it does give that extra pump at the gym. To counter the sugatr and carbs, I run a mile before and after my workout. Cause like the Buddha, I am trying to cut the fat. I went from 320 down to 250, so I have dropped enough weight, just want to lose some more fat and gain weight in muscle.

At my gym we have something called red force. I personaly think energy drinks dont do shit.

Like scottp999 said red bull is better with vodka.

A coke probably does the same work as an energy drink.

redbull with ephedrine wakes you up instantly, when I feel weak or no intension to hit the gym, I do that, it works.
