    High BP and NO pre-work sups

    Just wondering if NO pre-work sups will raise BP or the opposite? I know the AAS will raise BP so is taking Pre WO sups a bad idea?

    Actual NO boosters (vasodilators) will lower you BP.
    Stimulants will constrict blood vessels, increasing BP.
    Most pre-workout supps contain both.

    Actually they will lower BP in most. Some companies are marketing it now as a way to lower your BP naturally.

    With 315mg of caffeine per scoop, 1MR definitely won't lower your BP. With the added caffeine constricting your blood vessels, I don't think they would dilate enough to lower BP. If you aren't taking too many other caffeine sources, then it shouldn't raise it either. Nitrix, Yok3d, Arginine, or Citrulline Malate can boost NO production without the added stimulants. Grape seed extract works wonders for naturally lowering BP.

    The Nitrix is from BSN and Yok3d is from USP Labs. Basically just the namebrand blends of arginine, citrulline, vitamin c, and beta alanine. I can say from personal experiences that citrulline malate has been the best vasodilator for me hands down. Hope this helps.

    You should be able to find it there, I would advise to order offline or find a local supplement shop (non franchise) to support though. GNC will rape you on the prices.
