Nutricost Pre-X Xtreme Pre-Workout Complex Powder (Blue Raspberry) 60 Serv

Love this stuff. It really gets me going in the gym, today I hit a deadlift PR after taking this. I mean, holy cow, I only take half a scoop because I have a pretty low caffeine tolerance, but this still really gets you going. The pump, the body feel, the tingling from the beta alanine, you get a really high quality workout after taking this because it just gets your blood flowing. I'm amazed that it costs so little considering you get everything you want from a preworkout mix out of this. My one complaint was the flavor: I got the blue raspberry stuff and MAN is that a strong flavor. I usually dry-scoop my preworkout but even when you dilute it with a ton of water it still has a very strong sour taste. My friends seemed to like the taste after I gave them a scoop but after having taken it a few times I think it's way too strong. Still, I know I'll be purchasing this product again because it's such a fantastic value, I'll just get the unflavored stuff next time. Anyways, this stuff is fantastic for me during weightlifting, and I would 100% recommend it as someone who's tried a lot of different mixes that try to get what this preworkout offers.

This is the best pre-work out I have used! I have used and tried soooo many pre-work out supplements over the years. I am not sensitive to caffeine so the 300mg doesn't bother me. I mix it with 14oz of water. You get a slight tingling from the beta-alanine in it but not as severe as C4. I have had some of my best work outs and PR's while using this. I haven't experienced any GI side effects others mentioned. I also like that the blue raspberry flavor is not sooo sweet just a subtle amount. I did have to cut the handle of the scooper as it is obnoxiously long and that moisture reducing bag is large. It was on sale also. Give it a try! I think you would be pleasantly surprised. I also take multiple supplements from this company and like them all.

So I’ve now been using this pre-work out for a few months because the jug is huge. Here’s what you need to know. The taste of this stuff is decent, it’s not bad. If you’re buying pre-work out for the delicious taste are you really even a gym rat? It’s kind of like a watered down fruity flavor. Performance- there has only been a few times I’ve taken a full scoop of this pre-workout because this stuff will get your heart racing with the caffeine mixed with the taurine which I am not a huge fan of. If you stay to half to 3/4 of a scoop I think you’ll find your sweet spot. Because it does kind of elevate your heart rate you will be sweating a lot in the gym especially if you were going into the gym within 20 minutes of taking this. I would say if you were going to take a full scoop you may want to wait 45 minutes to an hour if you’re really working out hard which is what I do when I go to the gym so that’s why I’m not a fan of a full scoop. It will give you everything you need to get through your workouts. The pump is decent, nothing crazy but I’ve been working out for a long time, so no pre-workouts really truly blow me away. They do what they are designed to do for the most part. I do feel like the pump on this is a little more mild than some other pre-workouts. I feel as though the nitric oxide in this blend is not the greatest, however the beta alanine seems to be on point. All in all if you want a cheap pre-work out this stuff really is not bad. Just be careful taking a full scoop because I’m telling you this stuff will make your heart pound and race. I think all pre-workouts are pretty much a rip off and it’s always better to just order the ingredients to make your own but sometimes that’s a pain. That’s why I buy pre-workouts from time to time plus it’s nice to switch things up. The stuff will definitely do what you need it to do, you’re not gonna fall in love with the taste but you’re also not going to cringe when you drink it. It’s a middle of the road pre-work out with a very good price tag. Hope this helps.

probably the best price to preformance stuff out there. As a 6 year lifter, this has an awesome blend that provides clean energy, non jitteriness unless you dont eat of course, and decent focus. Could taste just a hint better but overall, 9.4 out of 10

Pros: ingredients are good for pre workout. Appropriate ratios. Has the desired effect regarding focus energy and pump. Flavor is decent (blue raspberry). Mixes well Cons: this is the 3rd time I’ve had this product. Prior uses was good without issues. This time around however I have noticed some GI issues of the need to go to the restroom quickly after about an hour of ingesting. I don’t get bloated like with some but the interruption of my workouts defeats the point of a quality product. I figure they changed something as this was not the case with prior versions. Unfortunately despite the pros, I don’t feel like spending one or two times on the can during a lift especially leg day. For that reason I won’t be ordering this item again. This may differ for others. Reminds me of the old superpump affectionately referred to as superDump. Also has a stronger crash but that also Might be me.

I don’t usually write reviews, especially if it’s not bad but I felt that this one deserved the love. I’m a college student who has always stayed away from supplements because of the cost. I Workout twice a day involving heavy cardio/calisthenics in the mornings for my ROTC unit and go to the gym in the evening after all my classes and on top of that I also work. Every time I have gone to the gym I’m mentally and somewhat physically exhausted which is not the type of mindset I want to be in when I’m trying to achieve an aesthetic body (I know rest is important but I know my limits). Anyhow, after doing research I decided that it would be worth it to spend money on supplements to help with recovery and muscle fatigue, which is how I stumbled across this product. Today was my first time using it in the gym and it wasn’t a miracle drug or anything, but I really felt as if it gave me the ability to push myself as if I wasn’t already tired. For the value, quality of ingredients, and quantity, I will continue to support this company by using its products. Furthermore, my friend who is a certified trainer had this to say about the ingredients “Pretty good, not super stimulant heavy which honestly is a good thing, how much?” -37$ “That’s not even bad…” It’s not in depth but I think that short interaction between me and my friend speaks for this product alone. If you made it this far, thank you for reading my review. Cheers and never stop the grind

The flavor is great and it gives my hubs the boost he needs for his workouts! It dissolves well.

Taste is ok but I feel nothing after taking it. No pump, no jitters, no energy boost. Notta.
