Man I'm also looking for a good one. I remember way back when pre-workouts started getting popular. The days of NO-Xplode and Super Pump250 lol. I used the crap out of them for so many years. It got to the point where I couldn't even really tell if it was working, so I weaned myself off of them. Which took forever to get used to, my workouts sucked for a long time. Now I have a cup or two of coffee and I'm usually good to go, but there are those days when I get off late, or have a crazy busy week and would get a much better workout with something to give a little boost. It's been so long, I have no clue what's good anymore.
I remember the pre workout drinks sold at the gym that taste like drinking per Ephedrine. American Muscle or something like that.
My prob was always the down part. Lasted too long and I could not sleep. If I consume stims after 3:30pm I will have a bad night of it. It is all about the half life. Caffeine has about 4-4.5 hour half life. Take a large dose at 5:30 on your way to the gym and you will still have about half of it active in your system at 10. Other stims have longer half lives.
If I am dragging I drink a big cup of coffee at 3:30pm and head to the gym right after work.
If I do not feel sleepy at bedtime I take L-Theanine, gaba, and melatonin. This really helps.
Man I remember NOXplode was the real deal back in the day. It is still a quality tried and true supp IMO.
I have not used them in a long time.
I'm trying out a new one called Pre-Roll by BJJ Gold. supposed to be designed by and for the MMA folk in mind, you can find it on Amazon. I thought I'd give it a try since it had some ingredients I liked, It's hard to find anything nowadays without artificial colors and Sucralose. That's one is pretty mild, now if ya want something with a lil more throttle, Pure Power by Strongman Supps is a good one too. I only use that one once in awhile just because. You can find that one on Amazon too.
