I used to take MyProtein pre workout before they demolished the taste and made it no longer worth the money.
Looked for an alternative, found this. Haven’t gone back since. Perfect ratio of caffeine and creatine, and it tastes like watermelon. It’s a little weak in taste I won’t lie, but I think that’s actually a good thing since most pre workouts nowadays are potent and you have to hold your nose to take it.
Hope this helps.

Even with 2 good scoops I had very little from this pre workout compared to others. Dosnt mean to say it wont be the best you’ve ever had. The water melon flavour repeated on me for the entire workout aswell , just make sure you love the artificial water melon taste before buying

Flavour I bought tastes pretty good, and has enough caffeine for most. Problem is that some of the ingredients are at dosages that are sub-efficacious for the effects you might want to achieve and at some dosages they’re offering here, they may aswell be taken out of the formula all together.
It is nice that it does contain about half your serving of creatine per day so if you’re taking this daily, you probably only need to add a bit more in a shake later on and be fine.
Citrulline is pretty laughably dosed at 750mg. Citrulline is thought to increase NO production leading to better pumps in the gym. However the minimum effective dose is around 3-4g, with many PWOs offering up to 5-6g or more. At this dosage I don’t even think there is any point in including it in the formula.
Beta Alanine is dosed at 1.5g, which is fine if you just want that itchy feeling, although for most people it will not provide many benefits. Although again, we usually see higher doses of this in other PWOs.
Only thing this has going for it is the flavour and caffeine really. Good introduction to PWO and at 20 quid for 30 servings is not too bad considering you’re usually paying upwards of £30 for most effective PWOs. This will do fine if you’re just getting into the gym and want a little kick but later on I would recommend looking into some more effective options; generally, you’re not going to find these on amazon but on dedicated online supplement stores.

Tried a number of pre workouts over the years most of which are complete rubbish in terms of quality required ingredients, with the high dosage of caffeine & creative works really well without the stupid sitters some give you which is clearly not healthy at all.
