first off let me state that i am an amature body builder and advice from the Pros would be greatly appriciated. Ive used stimulants and sugar free energy drinks for a few years and i seem to be losing stamina unless using theml. So through a wide spectrum of information obtained i've came up with the following on stimulants, caffine, sugars, etc.
Basically ive read that the use of these will drmatically increase the blood sugar levels in the athlete. This in turn spikes insulin levels ( insulin directs amino acids and glucose into muslces) which can damage insulin receptors. Also i read that if you can keep insulin levels at a maintained rate, you maximize natural hormone output... Basically I read that the stimulants are too much "pump" mentally and physically and although you peak performance you eventually "crash" and blod sugar is lower than normal which can lead to many long term effects.
What stimulants to you bros use if any and what is some in-sight on this topic?
