Dosage: For performance enhancement use 30 minutes preworkout. Use 1 scoop per training session. Always start with a single scoop (or less) serving in order to assess individual tolerance. Do not exceed 2 scoops in a single 24-hour period. Do not take within 6-8 hours of bedtime.
Product score
- Category average
- 66 / 100
A broad pre-workout mix with one-scoop directions, but the amounts of its individual performance and stimulant ingredients are not disclosed, so its dose and stimulant exposure are hard to judge.
Scoring criteria
Quantity
75 / 100The formula’s principal performance and stimulant ingredients are present, but their individual amounts are undisclosed, leaving adequacy unresolved.
Form
75 / 100The listed conventional forms include creatine monohydrate, citrulline malate, and caffeine anhydrous, with no established overall absorption or tolerability advantage for this mixture.
Convenience
100 / 100The label directs one 20 g scoop per training session and limits use to two scoops per 24 hours; the evaluated routine is one scoop.
Label accuracy
100 / 100The supplied label consistently lists its ingredients and declared sub-blend amounts, with no explicit contradiction; undisclosed individual blend amounts are addressed separately.
Formula balance
75 / 100The broad pre-workout combination is conventional, but undisclosed ingredient proportions prevent judging how well its components are balanced for the stated role.
Purity
75 / 100No product-specific purity controls or contaminant findings are supplied, and the listed flavoring, sweeteners, and color do not establish a defect.
Cofactors
0 / 100No separately quantified supporting ingredient is identifiable beyond the multi-active formula and incidental nutrients.
