Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Advanced Pre Workout Powder, Energy Booster with L-Citruline, Beta Alanine, Caffeine & Vitamins B12 & B6, Blue Raspberry Flavor, 20 Servings, 420g

When they say advanced they mean it. If you're used to regular gold standard or other pre workouts try 1 or 2 scoops first and DO NOT BE A HERO with the recommended 3 scoops. I genuinely feel like a 2/3 scoop of this is more intense than a double dose of some others I've used. Everyone who I've given some to try has told me that night was sleepless and the workout was intense and focused, and I agree. This let's you push harder than you thought, and the pump is crazy. I recommend if you are used to your regular scoop and feel like you're up to it. Stay hydrated. The taste however, it's safe to say that I won't be tempted to sip on this for the flavour. If the energy it puts into you had a taste, it's this. This tastes like a lightning strike and not in a good way, but the results are worth pushing through it and drinking it fast, if you're at this stage of buying advanced/expensive pre workouts you're probably more than used to bad tasting supplements anyway, but if flavour matters to you, this really is not the one for you.

Ordered this product after a friend of mine recommended it. This is a great pre workout, and the tastes nice. It is also super easy to mix. Happy with this order overall

Beta alanine is possibly a bit too high for my tastes - it feels like ants in pants. Also idk what they’ve put in it compared to the other stuff but 200mg caffeine in three scoops vs 175mg in one scoop seems like you’re consuming more bulking agents to me. Taste is not there compared to the other stuff they make either. Four stars because it still gets you going in the gym

6ft 16 stone 10-15% bodyfat. After 10 years (of near consistent as allows) 7 days a week gym use and using almost every pre workout you can name from cheap to very expensive this is definitely up there in my top 3 if not the best I have ever tried, but do try with caution as it is very powerful and read on for my usage. Today I did my first ever in 10 years 2 x 2 hours intense weight lifting in an 8 hour period with 15mins cardio in each (Supersets with minimal break) no sitting on phone etc, 30 seconds on, 20 seconds off, jumping from machine to machine, sweat dripping everywhere, sets until faure, heart rate 100-150 constantly, veins popping out, felt like the hulk, everyone looking at me like "what the **** is he taking" crawled out the gym to my car. usage: I use the full 3 scoops per 2 hour workout mixed into a FULL lucosade 900ml bottle filled with water. I do not like itching so I drink 1/4 soon as get the gym / on the way while on the way then top the water back up to full to dilute, then drink another 1/3 slowly while working out then fill to top to dilute again. By now its really kicking in but take it easy to avoid itching, keep drinking and diluting 50% per 10-15mins and you'll have no itching and be on fire for 2 hours solid and come out the gym like wow that was insane. Can't rate it enough, they have put alot of research into this product and it tells. Reminds me of product I used before about 9 years ago but ended up diluted over time to save cost, if this product stays the same forever I'll never change other than the flavour. Thank you for transforming my workouts!!

Got got my ex who had sensitive tummy, was good review from him at the time.

This has a very artificial taste and colour ,not for me im afraid!

Great energy booster for early morning workouts. Taste is good, not sour like many other brands.

Absolutely awful. I've tried a lot of different pre-workouts and this is hands down the worst. I'm not sure if this is somehow defective, but when you open the tub it stinks. It somehow smells rotten! No idea how a pre-workout can smell rotten but it does. It mixes really badly and leaves huge clumps, and you can see a dark residue at the top of the drink. You can't return this so it's money down the drain. Avoid.
