Should I cycle off pre workouts with stimulants?
Yes — it’s a good idea to take breaks or cycle off stimulant-based pre workouts (like those with caffeine). Doing so can help:
- Prevent tolerance so you continue to feel their effects
- Reduce dependency on high caffeine or other stimulants
- Support better sleep and recovery, especially if you train late in the day
A common approach is to use stimulant preworkouts for 6–8 weeks, then switch to a stimulant-free preworkout or take a short break before restarting.
