Peter Sawka –
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.

This is an honest and true review of this item, which I purchased full price on
Amazon.com:
I have been using Amino energy for over a year now and I’m not looking to change. It has been a complete lifesaver for working graveyards. I have plenty of energy throughout the night with no crash and when I get home, I can fall asleep easily. This flavor is pretty good, I would make it taste more natural if possible

I went to the shops near my place of work, Best Health Stores Near Me and Natural Health Food Store to buy Pre Workout Supplements and checked different brands. And I was satisfied with this brand so I highly recommend it ☻
