Mixibility and taste
This product comes in the flavours of Mangon unchained, Lemon slayed and Grape of Wrath.The flavour i tried is Grape, wouldn't describe it as an amazing taste but certainly not one to complain about, happily sip on it and mixes well with no sediment at the bottom even with 2 scoops.
Profile
Unfortunately to comment on the dosages of the ingredients i can not really do other than to complain that it is listed in a prop blend. Based on a scoop containing 3.6g of the following 4 factors of the pre i didn't use 1 scoop, i didnt see much reason, there would be very few of the ingredients effectively dosed in 1 scoops, especially with the number of proven and supported ingredients inside.
My review is based on 2 scoops:
endurance and performance
Creatine, Beta alanine, cit mal and ltaurine, very good ingredients as long as in a decent dosage. Glucuronolactone is a less supported ingredient, but if it works any liver support and detoxification i like.
Focus
LTyrosine, NAcetyle Tyrosine very happy with the inclusion of these in a pre,both shown to boost focus and mental alertness.
Choline Bitrate, not an ingredient i look for a typical bodybuilders diet is likely to already be high in Choline.
Phenylethylamine is an ingredient that on a low dosage can potentially have a large effect. Until it has had more studies regarding sporting performance i do like the inclusion for it's potential. Especially in a small scoop pre such as this.
Sustained energy
Rhodiola Rosea (root), Schizandra Berry , Cordyceps Sinensis (whole plant), Panax Ginseng and GlycoCarn®
This for me is the weakest blend in the product, conflicting info on most of the ingredients included however this could also mean after a few more studies they could be proven.
Quick energy
Caffeine Anhydrous, Coffee Bean Extract (polyphenols) , Green Tea Extract (polyphenols/EGCG) probably some of the most commonly used and supported ingredients within pre workouts. Unaware of the dosage makes it hard to discuss their inclusion but the good news is i find it unlikely in this size scoop they shall be over dosed. I also feel it would be unlikely with the lower dosage and more sustainable green coffee it is unlikely to have a stim crash on this product.
Bacopa Monnieri (leaf) This however does not have the support of the other ingredients. In all honesty i know very little about this ingredient without further research.
Effectiveness
However the doubts i have over the dosage, do they really count once you have tried the product and if it works.
And i LOVE this product, however this is based on my tastes and responsiveness. I regularly simply consume an espresso aminos and ltyrosine as my pre because my desired effect from a pre is focus. And this product makes me focus.
I can only assume that the focus blend in this product is where the priority of dosage has been placed. If a customer or friend asks me for a product for focus i shall suggest this every time.
There is no crazy energy from this, it certainly wakes me up but i think this is in a more tunnel vision way, caffeine is usually over dosed in most pres for me so i am happy with my predicted dosage of caffeine ingredients in this product. Pump i credit more to my training style and enhanced focus on mind muscle connection rather then any ingredients within this pre. This product on it's marketing doesn't claim to be a product for pump.
