Claire had one and it made her sick. I won't touch them now

SBJ · 07-19-2009, 06:41 AM

a few years ago when i'd go out alot my personal cab driver swore by the 5 hour energy but i told him i like my red bull too much. I saw at the gas station the other day that red bull has one of these types of things now

Due · 07-19-2009, 06:55 AM

I found mixing them with a couple of double espresso's and some redbulls works out well, if I need some extra energy I'll drink a couple of the Starbucks ice coffees too

have you tried the Starbucks doubleshot coffee and energy in a can? I've been drinking them a lot and the taste really good. I get the mocha.

woj · 07-19-2009, 07:00 AM

Yeah they are great, especially if you are driving for a longer period

If I need more energy I get a short nap and then go to the gym. Works every time.

I tried it and it didn't work

WiredGuy · 07-19-2009, 08:56 PM

Never heard of it but it seems too new to experiment with. I'll stick to coffee or espresso for a pick me up.

read about some side effects with flushing of face and tingling feelings in the leg, something like that would freak me out and think something was wrong

Yeah, the article on CNN mentioned reactions to B3 is to turn flush red but it only lasts 30 minutes. Yeah, that's comforting. lol

hypedough · 07-19-2009, 10:55 PM

I personally love it. Way better than any other energy drink, no drop off or burnout, you kind of level out.

ztik · 07-19-2009, 10:57 PM

That stuff can't be healthy for you

Try running for 5-10 minutes. You'll get alot more energy from that

beerptrol · 07-20-2009, 12:58 AM

I prefer "1 hour of energy and 4 hours of nap"

Yeah, I picked up one of the Red Bull version of it yesterday, but I wasn't tired last night, so I didn't try it. I drink Red Bull often, so I figured if I was gonna try one, I should stick with the Red Bull version. Anyone else try the Red Bull version yet ?

07-20-2009, 11:01 AM

I used to drink them, buy them in the 6 packs and drink 1 a day before I started work, it usually let me crank out some stuff and be focused for about 4 hours, but after that I got lazy again... Did it for 2 or 3 months, and got thinking it was probably bad, so I quit it and now I'm trying to get my energy by dropping all sugar drinks and other stuff and trying to drink just water... So far the energy I get from being hydrated and drinking water lasts longer than anything else, like 5hr Energy, Coffee, or Red Bull.

Bullshit!

Water is far less optimal than any drink, it's easy and fast to see the difference.
Try day 1 to drink 1 gallon of water
Try day 2 to drink 1 gallon of red bull
Try day 3 to drink 1 gallon of 5 hour energy.

Then compare the result, if you compare things you need to compare them by the same volumes, it's unfair to compare 1 gallon water with 20 ML of 5 hour energy or 330 CL of red Bull

Jman · 07-20-2009, 12:19 PM

I prefer to take a 20 minute nap, recharge and be energize then put this kind of crap in my body.

I do take the occasional red bull but to be honest, never felt it did anything to me.

Ginseng and Guarana tea actually gives me bigger boost

Lol, so you're saying my experience of being hydrated and drinking water, gives me better energy than taking any energy drinks, is bullshit? Hey, whatever if you feel that drinking all that helps so be it, but not everyone is the same, water works fine for me.

no way!!! That shit really works as advertised?? I keep a coffee maker at the studio and stalked up on Starbucks coffee.

Coffee only!! But if Ricky says it works i may try it once in a pinch. Does it make you want to punch talent on the come down??lol

GetSCORECash · 07-20-2009, 12:44 PM

That's how I'm able to drive to Orlando (DISNEY), if I don't take one of those, I simply fall asleap on my way...

I'd like to see a cost/benefits analysis on the above.

I just got them at Costco for the first time a couple weeks ago and I think it was less than $40, so close to $1.50. Better than buying them individually at $3 per, yikes!

So far I like them - I've had about 4 or 5 other brands of these "shots" and as bad as some people seem to think this tastes, I find it tastes better than most of the others (Monster's is probably the best tasting IIRC). Energywise it does seem decent. I used to have the sugar free Rockstar's and honestly I like these better for energy (but admit it seems weird to pay more for 2 oz bottles than 16 oz cans, lol).

Steve OSS · 07-20-2009, 03:35 PM

I have one from time to time...I haven't made a habit of it; it works well for me though.

CDSmith · 07-20-2009, 04:39 PM

One coffee and a lot of water and juice works just fine for me.

And always has.
