They felt that , you know , unlike anything else , they were just so so peak in their nature , which was great and it did indeed enhance my performance . However , while it did not create a dependency for those different substances , caffeine supplements , et cetera . What I noticed was that in the days and sometimes weekends afterwards , even though for much of my career , I confess I've worked weekends as well , but I would notice that I'd experienced a real trough in energy .
I could be like a laser in terms of focus , I could exert even more effort , put on some music and I could achieve even better performance . And then I also discovered that I could export that protocol of caffeine or bamate and various supplements to my cognitive work . So I was when I was studying or writing papers or writing grants or in the laboratory , when I was doing experiments with my hands in those days when , you know , cutting brain tissue and staining it and working really long hours .
I can run further . And then I also discovered that if I were to take a pre workout energy drink or I took say 300 mg of alpha G PC and 500 mg of phenylethylamine and perhaps even 500 mg of tyrosine and perhaps did that alongside the caffeine in the Monte then . Yes , absolutely .
And these are resistance workouts . Mind you not running , I'll take 500 mg of tyrosine or more typically , 500 mg of py ey laine and very , very rarely , maybe once every two or three months , I might stack all of those things together prior to a workout . But of course , I'm always mindful to also include workouts or runs or bouts of cognitive work .
I might do a hike without caffeine . But if I'm in a weight trainer , I'm gonna run , I tend to drink coffee beforehand or have your m or if I occasionally meaning about once every third , sometimes every other , but usually about every third workout , I'll take 300 mg of alpha G PC , maybe occasionally , maybe every third or fourth workout . And these are resistance workouts .
