Practicing cycling is good , I take half hour before training and between 1 and 2 hours I feel the energy come back to me .I've tried a few BCAA's like this and the XTEND Blue Raspberry. I think both are great but this one overtook the XTEND for daily use. Just personally I forget to replenish my electrolytes and this seems to do the trick. For me the Citrus flavors seem the best such as the Lime one, which I cut with light lemonade or lime juice and unflavored creatine when actively working out. I will say that sometimes on multiple buys the quality was less than what I was use to and nor a fan of silica packets inside the container.Personally after using this product I think everyone should add a BCAA to their diet as it does make me feel more hydrated. Overall its a great product, but ON needs to clam down on quality control, so that's why it gets 4 stars.Flavor is great I had lime and orange both are goodWould definitely recommend this flavor and productI have ordered this before and never had this happened but just wanted to let you know that I received this yesterday and I opened the package up this morning and noticed the seal broken?This stuff makes every workout a great workout. I train in a fasted state (mostly fasted, just a serving of this with some BCAAs), and it seriously gets me going every time. I'm not exactly caffeine sensitive, I don't get the jitters or anything, but I have never really felt as though I'm getting too used to the dosage of caffeine I'm taking.Pros: It puts the pep in my step whenever I need it. A fair dosage of caffeine (50mg per scoop) that helps me get through the entirety of my workout. Some AAs for intra-workout recovery. And perhaps the icing on the cake, the flavor is immense. I haven't had a bad flavor yet. The orange is awesome, the lemon-lime is my favorite so far. I hate artificially watermelon-flavored things, but even the watermelon flavored Amino Energy is pretty darn good!Cons: I do feel the need to take BCAAs with this supplement, as the AAs in here are varied, mostly EAAs, but since it doesn't give an actual breakdown of the amounts, you have no idea how much of anything you're taking (just that you're geting 2.5g of AAs per scoop). I add 3.4g of BCAAs to this, and I find that's sufficient for my workout.I highly recommend this stuff. It's an amazing pre-workout, tastes great, and gets you where you need to be.Coffee is pretty amazing, don't get me wrong. But Amino Energy replaced my morning coffee routine about 3 years ago and I've never looked back. It's an excellent morning pick-me-up for both workdays and weekends. And because it's a powder, you can easily fine-tune how much caffeine you're looking for on any given day. I'd never recommend taking as much as the label recommends though, anything more than 2~2.5 scoops gives me caffeine jitters. Start slow and figure out your ideal serving size through trial and error.It's also an excellent pre-workout before the gym. Definitely helps pumping iron, and I clearly feel better lifting weights on the days when I remembered to bring some versus the days I've forgotten my energy boost. The lemon-lime is delicious (like a non-fizzy 7-Up) and doesn't leave any unpleasant after-tastes to worry about.Another benefit of Amino Energy over coffee is that it's better cold. This is particularly helpful in the summer, when a cold beverage is much more refreshing than a hot coffee before braving out into the heat.I LOVE that this drink powder gives me even, steady energy throughout the day, whether it's for a workout or for long study/work hours. Every other caffeine supplement I've tried makes me jittery and irritable. This one not only gives me energy but actually seems to improve my mood and generally makes me LESS irritable. As a pre-workout, it makes it so much easier to keep running when I hit the wall, and it helps me put extra intensity into my weight training. I love the blueberry mojito flavor, but the lemon lime isn't bad either. My one complaint, which is hardly a complaint at all, is that when my lips are chapped (which is fairly often in the dry climate where I live), it makes them sting after I drink it for twenty minutes or so.For any ON Products below are the few things needs to be checked on packing.> There will never be a green or red dot on Packing itself as ON products are packed in US. There is no concept of green & Red dots for veg/Non Veg in US.> Bottle/Tub/Jar cap will have embedded ON logo and sides will have lines for grip.> True Strength Name will be there on packing & a QR code will be there.These are only few points... hope it will help guys buying ON products first time. specially ON Amino Energy.Energy as the name says it it gives you kick to hit the gym and lift weights I live in Shimla where temperature in morning is 0 to 2 degrees and this thing gives me kick to hit the gym in cold cold mornings and work out insanely .
