Adderall.

Just don't tell anyone you take it.

And just to be clear, I'm advising that you get PRESCRIBED, not that you go buy it from some shady kid at NYU or something. You don't want to have anything in your system that you can't produce a prescription for if you ever get tested.

 

It's Anabolic XTreme, not Anabolic Resources.

But yes, many people say that Stimulant X is an excellent resource when you need sustained energy. I would be wary of taking any such stimulants though, since many are so chemically similar to illegal methamphetamines, it's hard to say whether or not you'd test positive.

modafinil if you're just tired; adderall if you need an extra push

edit: for those who don't know about modafinil read http://www.newscientist.com/channel/health/mg18925391.300.html, i know cephalon was heavily pushing for it to go otc, but failed, although it really makes no sense since unlike caffeine, modafinil doesnt give you jitters, it doesn't make you crash, and it makes you mentally alert without any kind of body load at all. the one downside is that it makes your piss smell like the rotting ass of a homeless corpse.

adderall is all well and good but people need to realize that it's speed and after four or five hours you are going to have the choice of either taking more or feeling like shit for the next three hours

Mods if you are tired???? Dude...

 

It boosts your metabolism,it is diuretic and it is full of antioxydant. This means you have more energy,you burn fat and you must go to the toilet more often,which results in more breaks...perfect

 

Devin, what you're saying about the original Adderall is true and it caused some problems with the original generation of users. Thus, most Adderall being prescribed today is extended release. The effects are smoother and more moderate and there's a gradual sixteen-hour taper so there's no crash and you don't need more to get through a normal working day. Also, because of the coating of the XR granules, it's more difficult to abuse or use improperly.

Folks, if you're going to use Adderall, make sure your prescription is for XR. It's safer and more comfortable.

 
Williamit has a decent amount of caffeine and its sugar free

taste like crap though. but all the energy drinks do

 

finals week here means i've been on adderall pretty much 24/7. it's terrible feeling this dependent on it, and i'm glad i don't use it that much during the school year.

but on the other side, of course, i just locked in at least 3 a's this semester. 3 more to go !!!

 

Be careful with caffeine pills. I had a caffeine overdose finals week my sophomore year. Honestly, half a serving of preworkout with moderate caffeine content (~180 ml / serving) does the trick when I’m dragging ass either work, studying, or in the gym.

 

I plan on having one or two (1 each day obs) per week and not all weeks. If i know i am about to do lots of work, i believe is a good solution. the rest of the days coffee and water. mines are 200 mg per pill so not that hard
