Optimum Nutrition's Amino Energy is easily one of the most underrated, perfectly priced and effective supplements on the market. Coupled with a mild dose of pre-workout at one scoop or as a stand-alone at two scoops, Amino Energy delivers the extra mental kick needed for one to blow passed personal records. It does not stop there; Amino Energy, at the full dose, also delivers the correct dose of amino acids needed to stabilize optimal nitrogen balances within the muscle during training. This, for me, allowed my workouts to be more intense, go further and above all, be more effective. Going further, the very mild dose 100% natural caffeine left me with a high level of clean energy that did not fade until long after my workout. My alertness was elevated, I was sweating good in the gym, my endurance was top-tier and my recovery was beyond quick for the nexy day's workout. To ice the cake, Amino Energy mixes better than any supplement that I have ever used AND tastes as if it is sold as a powdered drink mix. The fact that an amino acid blend with a mild amount of stimulants can mix this well, taste this great and have such long-lasting and unmatched effects puts it near the top of my list of all-time favorite supplements.
