Do you get better pumps without full pre-workout?

[MuscleHustle]

Does anyone here take citrulline malate alone instead of using a full pre-workout? I’m wondering if the pumps are better using it standalone. Much appreciate!

Yes I’ve used citrulline malate on its own instead of a full pre-workout, especially when I want to keep things simple or avoid stimulants. In my experience, the pumps are often just as good compared to a full pre-workout, mainly because I can control the dose. I usually aim for around 6–8g of citrulline malate (or ~3–6g of L-citrulline) about 30–60 minutes before training.

Yes bro i take it solo. pumps are decent, more consistent i think. just dont expect that stim kick like pre workouts
