2) Amphetamines or ephedrine definitely make you more alert and motivated. But they have many side effects and using them for exercising will probably damage your heart.
3) I discovered that Zolpidem ups my creativity quite a bit. Problem is, it’s so sedating that you really have to fight to stay awake. It’s a sleeping pill, after all. Also there is a bit of hangover and after reading some papers I’m very skeptical of benzos and Z-drugs like Zolpidem. They seem to increase the risk of infection (actually shown through a double-blind study) and people taking only 0-18 hypnotics per year have a ~4 times higher mortality. Sure, it’s only correlational data, but still.
Then there is of course the classical psychedelic: LSD. I haven’t tried that many psychedelics but LSD is my favorite. Your thought processes are very different and you’ll see the world with different eyes but can still function quite normally—provided the dose is not too high- and can write and talk like normal people.

It didn’t need to be. It was merely describing chemicals and had no mention of you using them. Theoretical seems to be the appropriate term.
