Terrible advice. The muscles need blood (nutrients), and you're going to take something that vasoconstricts? You're then going to couple that with an increased heart rate?

I unironically offer the opinion that half a teaspoon of creatine is a much better alternative.

ADHD patients seem to be able to exercise just fine (and -importantly- don't seem to be suffering widespread muscle death) when on Adderall and similar. I bet folks like that are pretty glad that the body is a complex, robust system that does reasonably well in a fairly wide range of internal and external environments.

I honestly do not believe hardly any of the studies about adderall. I am an adhd patient and playing tennis on amphetamines once spiked my heart rate above 200. Not good. Also vasoconstrictors + valsalva technique for lifting heavy weights = anuerysm risk.

So, respectifully to the studies, im calling bullshit.

Caffeine is also a vasoconstrictor, and included in large amounts in most pre-workouts.

Been on them for over decade, they don't work that way -- at least for me. Not sure I want them to work that way either. I am not sure working out on stimulants is the best for the body. The candle that burns twice as hot burns twice as fast.
