5 Hour Energy

stevec677 · Jul 25, 2013

If you drink half of a 5 Hour Energy, do you get:

A: Full energy for half the time (2.5 hours)

or

b: Half the energy for the full time (5 hours)

This was the big discussion at the bar last night. I figured I would post this where the smartest people I know hang out.

You are one day early, tomorrow is Friday, the day we normally deal with brain-burners like this.

It is a proven fact (somewhere) that you get full energy for half the time, but when you go to drink the 2nd half of the 5-Hour Energy later you will only get approximately 2.3 hours of energy at just a few ticks under full energy due to the previously opened container and the release of the magical mojo into the atmosphere. Of course this factor will continue to drop depending on the length of time you drink the second half of the bottle.

Don't use them, don't need them. I also cut caffeine out of my diet maybe 10 years ago, since I was so used to sipping, I now go decaff and no more Mt. Dew, since my adjustment period, I now have zero ups/downs, sleep like a baby. Body adjusted but it took some withdrawal period of more than a year. I was def hooked on caffeine and depended on it, so glad I beat that (popular, but public head-turning hidden) addiction

I guess my body just doesn't expect it anymore. Adrenalin and energy come naturally from my foods? IDK, but I do know McD's is not in any of my game planning, that food just makes me drag the rest of the day

So is Thursdays the new Fridays? lol.

Then 5 Hour Energy should make you a *RockStar* for 3-4 hours

For me, it's more like 15 minute energy, the two times I tried it.

The more important question would be, "If a man speaks in the woods, and no woman hears him, is he still wrong?"
