IMHO, yes. Contain tons of sugars, HFCS.

[EatLiftGrow]

Sugar free Red Bull wouldn't be bad but I would go with Redline

their are "energy drinks" that do.

[VIPLV]

I agree. Get yourself some Redline. It does wonders. Or go hardcore and get yourself an ECA stack!

[JC2007]

Buy the sugar-free drinks and you will be fine.

i wouldnt slam an energy drink though before u work out, could be too much caffiene at once then bad on your heart once u start working out, i just sip on one while i work out if i need it.

[Flex-Appeal]

if you get the low carb/low sugar they aren't really bad for you. infact the ginseng, carnitine, etc in them is good for you in moderation

the caffeine won't hurt you, studies have shown a 200-400mg dose to be beneficial to working out, i down over a gram of caffeine before i workout and it helps my workout focus tremendously

[Flex-Appeal]

Caffiene pre-workout is not bad. Most of these supps like NO-Xplode and things of that sort all contain caffine abt 200 mg. (which is reccomended)

[Flex-Appeal]

phate beat me to the punch DOH!

[Phate]

caffine is also anticatabolic, or was found to be in one study i read
