white flood

If you get hooked on caffeine, you'd see the need for a good preworkout. I sometimes drink one just because i need a pick-me-up during the day when I'm not even working out.

I understand that, but don't you think the reason for you needing a pick me up probably derived from starting to drink coffee/consume caffeine in the first place? I don't see why people say they feel like they need a lift in the day. In my opinion it either means a) you get no sleep, or b) you are naturally an unmotivated person. Not saying you are in particular, I just personally don't understand why people see the need for caffeine and pick me ups etc.

caffeine is one of the most addictive substances in the world... apparently..

Absolutely agree. It's something that isn't and shouldn't be a necessity in people's everyday lives. I think it just becomes a part of a lot of people's daily routine and schedule that they just become used to it and it's pretty much essential and something they always do.

exactly, i dont drink coffee because it tastes like sh!t IMO, and i dont drink soft drinks any more because of my diet (way too much sugar in them, and the diet versions just taste like sh!t anyways lol)...

Well, it's really from the fact that you get desensitized to the caffeine. Where you need the upper not to be flying high, but just to feel normal. Basically the amped effect from the preworkout diminishes. And you really have two options at that point. Either cut off preworkouts and caffeine for a couple weeks or up the dose. It's easy to just say you'll go without the caffeine, but when you need to be alert and not sluggish at work or if you want to be able to focus and have an intense workout, you'll go for the quick fix every time.

I've used white flood quite a bit and I'd say I'm fairly satisfied with it depending on what my training schedule is like. If I'm doing shorter workouts and lifting more days of the week it works great. However, when I have longer workouts and lift fewer days of the week i tend to feel sluggish part of the way through my workout. I've found that Purple WrAAth (also by controlled labs) is more effective for the longer workouts.

That's because Purple Wrath isn't a preworkout. It's stacked full of BCAA's and amino acids that help to prevent muscle fatigue etc. You should be having that about halfway through your workout if it's going to be a long one.

I know its not a true preworkout and more of an intraworkout supp. I've used it in the past though as a preworkout before long workouts and it has helped a lot.

Wrong. White Flood is nothing but a preworkout. Purple Wrath by the same company is an intra workout and helps to combat fatigue and help you to workout for longer.

I was refering to Purple Wrath as not being a preworkout.
