Speaking of ATP...
One supplement that ramps up ATP in a way that you can actually feel (perhaps even too much) is Propionyl-L-Carnitine. Having tried all the variations of carnitine, this one in particular (GPLC), can be a little overwhelming/over stimulating if not put to good use. I keep this one in mind in case I ever enter a rowing competition and don't plan on needing to sleep till the next day!
Propionyl L-carnitine increases cardiac efficiency in hypertrophied rat heart

ATP production and TCA activity are stimulated by propionyl-L-carnitine in the diabetic rat heart

Treating symptoms of “male menopause,” low levels of testosterone due to aging. Taking propionyl-L-carnitine by mouth in combination with acetyl-L-carnitine for six months seems to improve sexual performance, depression, and fatigue in older men. Taking this combination seems to work about as well as taking testosterone.

Speaking of Coleus Forskohlii
Some people take a combination of Coleus Forskohlii (naturally increase cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels) and Artichoke Extract (Phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor), to improve memory and cognitive function.
Note that the standardized Forskolin can make bathroom visits a bit more intense.
Speaking of Fenugreek with 50% saponins
I used to take this (Swanson's version of Testofen) as a common stack among body builders who would include a standardized Stinging Nettle extract as necessary to help avoid resulting gynecomastia. The concern was that it would naturally result in increasing moobs without it or something similar.
Note that some find this supplement can make them a bit too aggressive (and not in a good way).
Just a few observations
