Super User A-Jay Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 I drink one. It's definitely an old school brand. Been around since 1892. Perhaps you're heard of it. It's called Maxwell House. A-Jay 13 Quote

tater555 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 I drink a monster local Moca every day on the way to work! Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 When deployed I lived on rip it's and monster rehabs. Since being home I drink monster ultra white from time to time I used to drink two a day but have cut back to Friday's only now. Quote
Super User Gone_Phishin Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 I drink them and coffee every work day. The meds I take for my spine can make me really drowsy, and the drinks help combat that. Quote

I.rar Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 A cup or two of folgers classic every morning for me but I'll pick up a blue Redbull every now and then. I think they're delicious. Quote

Super User Gone_Phishin Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 Google is your friend- look up some reports on the side effects of those energy drinks. Get sleep and exercise For some that is not an option, or does not cut it...that's when people turn to PEDs in a can. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 Google is your friend- look up some reports on the side effects of those energy drinks. Get sleep and exercise ^^ This ^^ ... I have replaced alot of caffeinated sodas, energy drinks, and 5 hour energy drinks with various forms of tea made by a company called Yogi, Naked juice, and more water and exercise. Don't care for the elevated heart rate and internal health damage energy drinks provide. Quote
Matthew2000 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 I have quit drinking them, they made me feel worse just from the affects then from the energy aspect. Never drink one before taking a test or working with small objects. I did and could not function properly, my heart was beating what felt like out of my chest, my hands were shaking, and I was kind of twitching. And mine focus just drained. Some kid who played on my baseball team collapsed after drinking one before a game. To sum it up they kind of suck for your body and can lead to some pretty serious heart problems. NOT worth it at all. Quote

Super User gardnerjigman Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 I drink a big ol glass of OJ every morning on the way to work. Good to go! Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 Who drinks em? Like red bull, monster or rockstar? Why would a young guy need an engery drink ? 3 Quote
BasshunterJGH Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Why would a young guy need an engery drink ? Haha I know right. I tried monster awhile back just for the heck of it, didn't notice much of an increase in energy but man when it wore off in like 2 or 3 hrs it hit me hard. Got all shaky and felt like taking a nap. Seems like something you could really get addicted to. I spend enough on fishing already. Quote
Super User Catch and Grease Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 Energy drinks are gross... If I need alittle boost in the morning I'll drink a soda...... Quote
BasshunterJGH Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Energy drinks are gross... If I need alittle boost in the morning I'll drink a soda...... Ya energy drinks taste terrible. I can't even explain what they taste like. I'll take a mtn dew any day. Quote
Super User Angry John Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 I use them like a tool. If i have to drink one to stay awake on a car trip then its worth it to not fall asleep and die. I have only done this twice ever and its a last resort. People who drink them daily are taking a risk to there health that they may not fully understand. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 10, 2015 Global Moderator Posted February 10, 2015 My philosophy is...If you need energy drinks, then you need exercise! Exercise will give you all the energy you need I'm gonna guess you've never worked midnights? I work midnight to 8am Sunday-Thursday. I've been working out enough and eating well enough to have lost 35 pounds in the last 3 months. I'm still exhausted most every night, especially right before work, and at about 0400. Sometimes, even with an energy drink it's all I can do to stay awake. I stick to the Monster Rehabs and Ultras, I don't have the buzz or crash that goes with regular strength energy drinks. At least there's a few good things in them, like B vitamins, pop is complete garbage in a can that offers nothing but empty calories. I like it when someone sees me drinking one and tells me it's going to kill me, while they're smoking a cigarette I only drink a couple of them a week on the really bad nights though. 2 Quote
Super User gulfcaptain Posted February 10, 2015 Super User Posted February 10, 2015 Drink one a day....Monster Low Carb or Zero. And yes energy drinks can be bad for you if you drink a bunch of them a day. It's all about moderation and self control. If you have high blood pressure and a bad heart, then no you shouldn't drink them. Been drinking one a day for 6years or more since I don't drink coffee.....blood pressure is still perfect. 1 Quote
