Workout Supplements That REALLY Work

Getting motivated for the gym is never easy.

There is the part where you need to find your gym shorts/pants, then your looking for where you left your sneakers, can’t find your car keys, and where the hell did I put my iPod?

That’s just the beginning, then you have the 15 minute drive to the gym, and of course on the way you hit every light.

Yeah, getting to the gym is never easy, but we all know it is half the battle when it comes to working out.

Why These Supplements Work

We have looked through hundreds of supplements that help to increase your motivation for the gym, and make you an animal when you get there.

We know exactly how it feels to be unmotivated, and these supplements will solve that problem when you get there.

So, how did we rate these supplements? Well, we took to the internet to see what guys on some of the most popular bodybuilding and workout forums were saying, and then narrowed down our selection by personally testing them.

What you will find is kind of shocking though, because our number 1 pick is probably a product you have never heard of before.

But sometimes the big name brands are not always the best, and it might be worth it to check something else out.

crazy bulk cutting stack reviewOur #1 Choice For Pre Workout – Crazy Mass Cutting Stack

We all know that stacking supplements is the way to go when you want to get the best results. I often recommend a wide variety of stacks to visitors on my site, but usually its a big mix up of supplements from various companies. Crazy Mass changed all of that with their new Cutting Stack Formula.

Made up of 4 different supplements, this Cutting stack works great for guys looking to reduce stubborn belly fat, and pack on lean, hard muscle. The formula includes Paravar, Winsitrol, Clentrimix, and Testosterone Max, and they all work in conjunction to help increase energy, improve recovery, and help build muscle.

NitrocutOur #2 Choice For Pre-Workout – Nitrocut

Best Price: $124.99 / 3 month supply

Read My Full Review Here

Nitrocut is actually a supplement I have been using for quite sometime now, and I have been recommending it to all of my friends. It contains a potent blend of L-Arginine, Energy Boosters, and natural aphrodisiacs which all work together to give you a huge boost of energy for the gym, help to get you ripped, as well as increase your libido.

So why is Nitrocut our #2 supplement? Well, unlike many of the competitors out there such as Force Factor who just use L-Arginine, Nitrocut has taken it a step further by injecting Vitamin B6, B12, and other energy boosters. These vitamins are most commonly found in energy drinks, as well as a few other supplements.

It also has an unexpected benefit of helping to boost your sex drive by adding Avena Sativa, Fenugreek extract, Tribulus Terrestris, and Eurycoma Longifilia. While these ingredients may sound greek to you, they are all very potent aphrodisiacs that are found in some of the most powerful over the counter male enhancement supplements on the market.

size slim pre workout reviewOur #3 Choice For Pre-Workout – Size Slim

Best Price:$49.99 / 1 month supply

Read My Full Review Here

Rounding out my top 3 is a powder called Pre-Workout Focus + Stamina, made by Size Slim. I got a chance to try out Size Slim back in August of 2015, and the results we amazing.

Size Slim pre workout contains a blend of ingredients that help motivate you to get to the gym, as well as provide sustained energy to push your workouts through the roof!

The thing that I like best about Size Slim is that it works VERY quickly, about 30 – 60 min. faster than with the Crazy Mass stack and Nitrocut.

It doesn’t come on too strong like most other powder based pre workout supplements, mainly because it only contains about 180 mg of caffeine. This is equivalent to about 1.5 cups of good, strong coffee.

And did I mention it tastes GREAT!?

  1. I’m old school sir, I worked out as a youngster on Bob Hoffman pre workout regime of coffee, ginsing, and fish oil. Some people like myself are sensitive to niacin in these concoctions.

    Any recommendations for niacin and caffeine free supplements?
    Thank you sir.

    1. Hey Joe,
      Yup, I get it. Pre workouts have def come a long way, and a good majority of them contain WAY too many stimulants. I would recommend you check out a supplement called Nitrocut. It’s the best stim-free pre workout I’ve ever tested, and I’ve tested literally DOZENS of these over the years. Here’s my review: https://www.supplementcritique.com/nitrocut-review-our-1-pre-workout-supplement/

      Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions.

        1. The best t booster we’ve ever tested for middle-aged guys like yourself is actually Prime Male.

  6. I am a 60 year old male that has been doing weight training and CV work since I was in collage. I have recently retire and have focus on the weight training and CV workouts even more intensely.

    I have a pretty good amount of muscle mass (I could always use more) but my fat (especially around my stomach) is way too much. I to maintain (or grow slightly) in muscle mass AND I need to take off a lot of body fat.

    I have a pretty solid nutritional plan but I believe I should start a good supplemental plan. I was thinking about a whey protein isolate, creatine and a fat burner.

    Can you give me some guidance on what you think about this approach? Thank you so much.

    I just receive your free eBook but have not read it yet. It may answer many of my questions and I will let you know once I complete it.

    Take care, Jeff.

    1. Hey Jeff,
      Yeah as far as supplements go I would ditch the creatine, but keep the fat burner and protein. The most effective fat burner I’ve used is called Instant Knockout, check out my review here: https://www.supplementcritique.com/instant-knockout-fat-burner-review/

      For protein, my personal favorite is Gold Standard whey, here’s my review of that one: https://www.supplementcritique.com/gold-standard-whey-protein-review/

      Also, if you have the dough I would add in a testosterone booster to the mix. Specifically, I would check out a supplement called Prime Male. I’ve been recommending it a lot to guys your age, and they’ve all been getting great results.

      Here’s my review: https://www.supplementcritique.com/prime-male-testosterone-booster-review/

      Lastly, I’m emailing you my free “How To Get Ripped Quick” ebook, along with some bonuses. It’s packed with tons of info on diet and exercise that work great in conjunction with the supplements above.

      Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions!

    1. Hey Frank,

      I would advise against taking them together. They both have caffeine and other stimulants, so using them together is likely to be overkill. If you’re using a fat burner with stimulants, like Instant Knockout, pair it with a non-stimulant pre workout like Nitrocut.

      It’s been a pretty long time since I’ve used their brand, but from what I remember the aftertaste was TERRIBLE. It had like a chalky/chemically-like aftertaste. But they may have changed up their formulas to taste better by now. I couldn’t tell you. My suggestion for you is the Optimum Nutrition line. Here’s a link to one of their better ones: Optimum Nutrition Serious Mass.

    1. Hey There,

      Whether you eat before or after working out depends on your goal. If you are primarily trying to lose fat, you want to do cardio on an empty stomach. More fat gets burned during your workout that way. If you’re trying to build muscle, You want to eat a small meal with complex carbs not too long before working out. You don’t want to be full, but you don’t want to lack energy either. A post workout protein shake is a good idea in both cases. There’s no Creatine in Nitrocut. You would have to stack that in.

    1. Hey Edward,

      You should see the benefits of a pre workout supplement immediately in the form of energy, pumps, and endurance. And if you work out hard and stick to a clean diet appropriate for your goals, you’ll definitely see results in 4 weeks.

      But those results are completely dependent on the work you put in, aided by the pre workout supplement.

    1. Hey Isaiah,

      I would stick with what you’re doing for now. It’s very difficult to cut and build at the same time. It’s better to pick one goal at a time and work full bore toward it. Next you can do a bulking cycle, and after that, a cutting cycle.

    1. Hey Rich,

      You’re right, the Bulking Stack is powerful, but there’s technically no pre workout in the stack. Go with Nitrocut. It’s stimulant-free and it’ll give you the workout energy you need. Adding creatine will also improve your results. If you just use the stack, you’ll do great. But adding Nitrocut and creatine will make you do even better.

      As long as you’re healthy and not taking any medications, the stacks are fine for you, and you’ll see and feel the benefits. But I would advise you to check with your doctor first, just to be sure.

  36. I’m 37 and looking for a good supplement to help on mass gains and belly fat cutting. I once at peak of working was 240 lbs and super strong.

    I then had neck and back surgery due to an accident on the job. I need something to get me back on track again and something that gets results so I can get back to the old me!


    Thanks,

  38. Hi Rob,

    I have just joined and have some reservations. I see that you promote Crazy Bulk but, as I searched the web, I found out it is a fairly new company and not all that trustworthy.

    Can you, please, clarify? I really want to trust someone on the internet and I feel comfortable with you, until now.

    1. Hey Nunzio,

      I actually don’t promote Crazy Bulk. I promote Crazy Mass. Crazy Bulk came along later and pretty much copied most of their stuff from Crazy Mass. I personally used the Crazy Mass Cutting Stack and had fantastic results. You should check it out.

  39. Hi Rob,
    I see lots of questions/response on pre-workout and getting you T stuff and your most recommended pre-workout is Nitrocut and for getting your T is Testofuel. Would you recommend stacking Crazy Mass with Testofuel or is Nitrocut/Testofuel a better combo?

    Reply
    1. Hey Phet,

      If you go with the Crazy Mass Cutting Stack, you don’t need to add the Testofuel because the Stack already includes a good testosterone booster. And this is what I would recommend for your best possible results. The Nitrocut/Testofuel stack is good, but with 4 supplements, you get more fat burning and muscle building with the Crazy Mass.

    1. Hey David,

      You should be fine with any of these, but the most certain would be Nitrocut. It doesn’t even contain stimulants. And you should stack it with a testosterone booster called Testofuel, also perfectly fine safe for drug tests.

      Our primary audience consists of guys who want to get in great shape by working out, but that doesn’t necessarily mean a particular supplement is or isn’t good for women. If you’re looking for a great pre workout supplement, check out Nitrocut.

  47. I recently purchased Nitrocut and went over the ingredients with my physician. She advised me that the ingredient SATIVA is also a strain of CANNABIS… MARIJUANA. She suggested I don’t take it because my employer requires random drug testing and it could test positive.

    Can you elaborate or find out if is factual before I make my decision on taking this supplement.
    Reply
    1. Hey Rene,

      I hate to dispute what your doctor said, but the ingredient in Nitrocut is Avena Sativa which comes from Oats, not Cannabis Sativa. My quick research shows that there is no connection.

    Visiting your site for the first time ever. I tried few pre-workout supplements and they all seem to have some side effects or other.

    The formula that works for me is (3 caps of Krill oil an hr before workout, 1% milk 6 oz + Extra virgin coconut oil 2 tbsp + 1/2 teaspoon tumeric 45 mins before workout). I am not an athelete, but not can run non-stop for 35 mins on my treadmill.

    Ketonic energy!

    1. Hey Jake,

      Just so you know, it’s not recommended that you take Nitrocut until you’re 18, but you’re practically there so I’d say it’s okay. And yeah, Nitrocut would help you get the most out of your workouts. 100% Whey Gold Standard is a great protein to add to your regimen as well. You should also download my free “getting ripped” ebook. It’s loaded with advice on food and workouts to help you reach your goals.

    I’m 15 and 160 pounds. I really want to get a six pack instead of the little belly fat I have now.

    I also want to gain muscle and look cut. I lift almost everyday and football season is starting up soon.

    What would you recommend for any supplements I should take? I saw nitro cut and cutting stacks and I was considering those but I wanted to see your opinion.

    I also was wondering if any of the supplements you mention would be good to take prior to practice for football?
    Reply
    1. Hey Bob,

      At your age, the only thing I would recommend you take is Muscle Advance Creatine. Creatine is the most tested bodybuilding supplement. It really builds muscle, and it’s been determined to be safe for all ages. Adding a protein shake like 100% Whey Gold Standard would also help. I wouldn’t recommend anything else for you. Your body is still growing, and you don’t want to mess with that.

    1. Hey Joshua,

      Most fat burners will have some kind of stimulant in them, so I recommend you go a different way. Nitrocut is a CNS stimulant-free pre workout supplement. It uses an increase in your body’s own nitric oxide to energize you and get oxygen and nutrients to your muscles right when you need them. You’ll work out harder, get better results, create more lean muscle, and burn more fat. If you haven’t already, download my free “getting ripped” ebook. It’s got tons of advice on meals and workouts, and I’ve just added some bonuses to the package!

  58. What’s up Rob,

    I use to take OxyElitePro. Prior to this, I took Hydroxycut Hardcore.

    These two supplements gave me the best bang for my buck, but by far OxyElitePro was the best I’ve ever taken. I now know these types of supplements are not good for the body. After dual major knee surgeries, I’m looking to lose about 40 lbs without putting a lot of stress on my knees being that they are only going to get worst.

    I’m in the process of reading your ebook (I received it yesterday; Thank you so much) and there are not many exercise that I really do because if my knees. What do you suggest as a supplement and exercises?

    Thank you in advance.

    1. Hey Tyrone,
      Yeah, OxyElitePro was causing liver failures and contained an ingredient known to cause heat attacks. The FDA eventually shut them down. I recommend you go with Proactol Plus. Instead of fat burner full of stimulants that can mess with your system, it’s a fat binder. It doesn’t allow fat to be stored. It makes sure it gets used instead. It also helps you feel full with less food and gives you great energy.
      As for workouts, you can get your cardio by swimming, using an elliptical machine, walking, or biking.
      Hope this helps. Let me know if there’s anything else I can do.

    As someone new to this lifestyle the supplement market can be confusing, what kind of supplements would you recommend? I’ve already begun eating right and hit the gym 3x a week, just looking for that little extra you can get from supplements.

    It’s difficult because so many people recommend whey and/or creatine or this or that. What’s your advice?

    1. Hey Jon,
      Yeah, it can be confusing for sure. I’m not sure what your goals are, but I’ll give it a shot. If you want to turn your workouts up a notch, go with a pre workout called Nitrocut. If you want to bulk up, try a creatine supplement called Muscle Advance. If you want to burn fat, go with Phen375. You can also stack them together to combine the effects.

      This ought to get you started. Let me know if you have any more questions or there’s anything else I can help you with.

    I love what you’re doing and gain tons of good info about products I’m curious about but know I will never try for years! Anyway, my concern is, you seemed concerned about the health aspect of the products you test but I don’t see you ranking any products that don’t contain artificial sugars (i.e.

    Sucralose, NutraSweet, etc.) which are harmful to the body versus natural sweeteners like Stevia or Agave. We all know that our bodies aren’t geared for the fake stuff but it’s in everything.

    Some of your research says the product is all natural but I read the ingredients and of course one of the artificial sweetners is in there somewhere. I’m trying to find products that work but are really “natural”. Can you seek out some that maybe have Stevia and test them. What say you? -Chip

    Reply
    1. Hey Chip,
      You make a great point. There are some supplement powders that use all natural ingredients either by using natural sweetener or no sweetener at all. I’ll put up some reviews soon. In the meantime, consider the pills like Nitrocut and Extreme NO. These don’t have sweetener at all, but they do have fillers that keep them from being completely natural. I guess sometimes we pick our poison.

      Thanks for the suggestion and keep a lookout for those reviews.

    1. Hey Robert,

      I would recommend Testo Fuel or HyperGH 14X. They both help stimulate your body to make more of the hormones that keep you young (ie keep you able to build and maintain muscle). And they have the side benefit of increasing energy and vitality, helping you get a better night’s sleep, and mild mood elevation. They are both natural and safe, but you should check with your doctor just in case to make sure they don’t interfere with any other medications you might be taking.

    1. Hey Jim,
      Swole Stack is a whole system of supplements including a pre-workout supplement, which is what Nitrocut is. So it’s not really comparing apples to apples. Nitrocut will help you get toned and to an extent put on muscle. Swole Stack will go further to build muscle, plus it includes a multivitamin. It’s also a lot more expensive. So those are the factors you’ll have to weigh.

    I am 21 years old I am 5’11” and about 275 lbs. I’m looking to lose a significant amount of weight and build up muscle mass while I’m at it. I downloaded your Ebook which has been very insightful on many things and will be organizing an exercise and diet routine using that.

    What I’m wondering is: What supplements should I use (if any)? And should I use them together?

    Also, is there a good multivitamin/nutritional supplement package that you would suggest to go alongside a change in my diet? I feel that I may not be able to get the proper nutrition given my living circumstances and something like that will be very beneficial to me.

    Thanks.

    1. Hey Daniel,
      I’m glad you’re finding the ebook useful. As for supplements, go with a stack of Phen375 for fat burning and appetite suppression and NitroCut for your pre-workout. The Phen375 will help your weight loss get off to a good start. And the NitroCut will work with your workouts to make sure you’re building up the muscle you want. When you reach your weight loss goals, come back and we’ll talk about dropping the Phen375 and whether or not you should replace it with something more for muscle building.

      Your’s is a two-step process. You would benefit from a couple months of Phen375 to burn off some fat, and you should pair that with NitroCut pre-workout so you can really make the most of your trips to the gym. When you’ve lost the fat you need to, drop the Phen375 and add in Muscle Advance Creatine to pack on the muscle.

      Yeah, I haven’t gotten much up on the site in terms of post workout supplements, but I’m working on it. I like Gold Standard Whey Protein from Optimum Nutrition.

      Clearly, whey is the best protein because it digests so well and provides the full compliment of amino acids. And one of the best things about this stuff is the taste.

      The Double Rich Chocolate is out of this world! Gone are the days of holding your nose and chugging your protein shake just hoping you can hold it down.

    My hopes are up with your website, it’s very hard to find good advise about supplements that really show results. I’m 25, 5.7′, 154lbs, I’ve been an athlete all my life and now in my mid 20s its kind of hard to maintain fit (social life don’t help much). I’ve read your report on Optimal Stack and it really seems that you are trying to help people out there to not fall in these scams.

    I’m thinking about trying out one of these pre-workouts you listed: Nitrocut, XtremeNO, and 1.M.R. I usually hit the gym 3 to times a week plus cardio, My goal is to get ripped as I’m somehow fit already.

    Could you please try to lead me in the right direction as far a supplement that can help my case? Thanks for the help in advance!

    1. Hey Michael,

      Which supplement are you looking at? If it’s the Crazy Mass Cutting Stack, the biggest difference is that it’s more comprehensive.

      The stack includes a testosterone booster, energy for pre workout, and muscle building amino acids. There is no creatine in the stack, though, so you would have to supplement that separately if you went with Crazy Mass.

      There’s no sugar at all in the Crazy Mass supplements.
