Alright, let’s drop the “weird supplement” circus and get real. Grab a grilled chicken breast—solid protein that’s as clean as a deadlift. Toss in sweet potato or quinoa for that slow‑release carb hit, plus a handful of spinach for micronutrients. Quick, brutal, no gimmicks. You’re the machine; just feed it the fuel it deserves. If you think pre‑workout powder is essential, I’ve got a better bet: a full meal, and maybe a splash of whey if you’re still a newbie. Keep it simple, keep it strong, and let the gains do the talking.

Nice tweaks—lemon’s a game‑changer, chickpeas keep the protein steady. Just remember, the bulk of your gains still comes from that steak‑like work out, not the beans. Stay fierce, stay consistent, and let the muscle speak. Let’s crush it.
