Should you buy a pre workout supplement to maximize muscle growth?

this stupid gym bro thinks preworkout is a waste of money
people need to know that pre-workout is kind of just a waste of money for the last year or so I’ve been using caffeine pills as pre-workout because it’s pretty much the only ingredient in there that does anything to improve your performance if this were true coffee would be the greatest pre-workout of all time but it’s not because pre-workout isn’t just about caffeine beta alanine is another ingredient and it actually matters it helps reduce fatigue increase endurance and boost performance during highintensity activities
