  • Morning energy without the heaviness of a full pre-workout formula

Not Ideal For

  • Athletes wanting a high-dose, fully-loaded pre-workout formula (consider a dedicated pre-workout for heavy training days)
  • Evening use — the caffeine may affect sleep

Who Is This For?

Optimum Nutrition amino energy is ideal for active adults who want a low-calorie energy and amino acid boost without a heavy pre-workout. It works well as a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, a light pre-workout primer, or a flavourful drink to help maintain energy during activity.

Who Is This NOT For?

The label says it is not for use by anyone under 18, anyone who is pregnant, trying to get pregnant or nursing, or anyone sensitive to caffeine or beta-alanine. Don't combine it with other caffeine sources or with alcohol. Not a complete protein source — does not replace a post-workout protein shake for muscle recovery needs.
