Optimal Performance
Ingredients:
- Garden of Life Vitamin Code Multivitamin — 2 pill(s), twice daily
- CoQ10 — 100 mg, Daily
- Turmeric + Black pepper — 1000 mg, twice daily
- Vitamin D — 2000 IU, Daily
- Optimum nutrition Whey Protein — 48 gram, Daily

This stack is my typical day-to-day stack that I do not cycle or take time off. Occasionally I will add in Fish oil when I am working out more and eating less fish. When I go workout, I will take L-Carnitine, Citrulline and 140 mg of Caffeine. Immediately after I workout, I will drink 48grams of whey protein, 2000mg Vitamin C, 1000mg Turmeric and Fish oil. I also take about 10mg Noopept, 4 days on, 3 days off. On days that I have a lot of work to be done, or if I am feeling extra tired, I will take about 100-300 mg of Adrafinil, depending on how I am feeling. However, I have read that adrafinil is hard on the liver, so I will take Adrafinil once every 2 weeks. What do you guys think? Anything that I am taking too much of or taking too little of? What would you guys add or take out? Thanks for all responses! :)

avoid vitamin c (and possibly fish oil) around the time of your workouts - Oral administration of vitamin C decreases muscle mitochondrial biogenesis and hampers training-induced adaptations in endurance performance
