Gymdad did put this hitter on the spotlight. He called it Clowntown happy pre workout. So I decided to get a tub from Nutricartel,because that style of pres are my jam. Label looks stacked yet nothing crazy. Taste is Grape which is okay, 7/10 slight bitter taste in the end. No artificial colors is good point. I take heaping scoop of this pre which comes to 25 grams and gives good boost in mood and energy. It's smooth yet has some punch in it. Sustained energy and focus is maintained for 2-3 hours. I would compare it to Scary Hours, Dystopia and FON. It's one of the pres that you know gonna work and cause no drama or side effects. It's nothing scary but has that illicit vibes while it builds up slowly. But once you are locked in the workout you totally forget about it, it's a smooth operator. Pumps are not the greatest key point of this one so I pair it with Blo pump formula by Myoblox. Together its my Go to stack for good arms legs workout

I really liked the old version of Stim Shady. I remember it as a no drama, smooth happy mood elevation type of pre. It was DMBA exclusive pre, new version has added DMHA as well. I'm pretty sure it's the same manufacturers of the Euphoria by Star Labs because the tub lot number, flavor, powder, tub everything is identical except label of course. Anyway, I still think it's a different product since it is better than Euphoria, the lack of Alpha Yo doesn't make it smooth or weak pre. I had better workouts on this one on its own. Sometimes I stack it with alpha Yo pills (2-3 mgs) which adds that "slap" factor to experience. Taste awesome, Snowcone flavor is a banger flavor. Mixes easily taste awesome, it has some Glycerol bits that's floating on the pre but you just shoot it down. Everything about the experience ks is solid 8. Very balanced and mid tier level stim junkie pre.
Back in the day I used to take Hemorage by Nutrex it was similar proprietary blend like Outrage, and had a serious kick to it. Same basic trick here, caffeine and Alpha yo (vomitoria). It just works! I use full scoops for my intense workouts with pump formula stacked on top of it and half scoop for my morning Cardio session on days off. Very tasty, I have blue razz flavor. No artificial color even though I love classic blue razz color, mixes near perfectly, taste is classic blue raspberry, very enjoyable. Star of the of this pre is big energy and high sense of urgency. You are attack mode against the weights. It will kick in quick and have you in that elevated state for a while. So if you have meeting later at work you don't wanna take it first thing in the morning and having that stimmed up eyes around people lol Definitely recommended, especially for a crazy price point!
Xtremis Cartel always delivers hitter products with very good price and quality. Sueno is no exception. I have tried it two ways. First time 1/2 serving twice which both were great and 1 time full dose(whole sample pack) which was my favorite. Taste: dreaming grapes were nice easy to drink no bitter aftertaste before you wanna sleep. Effects takes every bit of 45 minutes to kick it but when it does you definitely feel it. Slowly getting relaxed and eyes becoming weary. Tbh I was scrolling on my phone against the advice of stop using blue light screens before sleep, yet despite that Sueno still made me sleepy and I felt like I how phone is getting heavy and my hands loose. I put the phone away and then I was out like a light. Didn't wake up though the night, there was no weird dreams, just fast forwarding to next day and waking up fresh not feeling groggy, as if I didn't even take sleep supp. Overall very recommended.
Originally I saw the review for Gulag by TJ and he kinda spoke highly of it. It was pretty popular pre workout and almost every stim junkie collection had it. I also got this one from Nutricartel before one last restock and it was gone forever. My tub is Sour Squach flavor and it's one of the best testing pre workouts and flavor system that there can be. It's not sour, it's sweet, taste and smell great, good Mixability, i only use 14 grams it mixed perfectly. Effects are very surprising because despite the main ingredients you might think is DMHA, it's actually alpha yo. It has a great kick and backbone to it which provides the aggression usually comes rather than euphoric happy mood from DMHA. It definitely keeps you going, energy never drops its clean sustained and just enough strong that doesn't blow off your head. Powder itself does hold good, doesn't get clumpy at all for 2+years time I had it. So it will last you good enough time. Currently I don't think it is available in most places and sadly Just Vibes Nutrition is gone they don't even answer the emails.
Dark Horse used to be around 4-5 years back and last year it did a comeback bringing the same tub label and promises. Fortunately enough the label ingredients panel didn't change and didn't got nerfed. I have tried the new version and can confirm it has the goods. Starting with flavor, Candy Crack Rox is solid enjoyable flavor mixed good no artificial flavor. Has slight burning back end sensation. Effects takes time to build up, I didn't experience crazy heart rate like GGH had when he took it and almost called 911 lol It was very euphoric and buzzing kick in. I haven't experienced such DMHA buzz since Hive v2. Meaning the physical buzz and your body goes in vibration mode but it feels good. Then it transforms into physical energy and during training you almost forget about the pre. It just provides great intensity and drive to complete your workout without problem. I think it's made by same people who made Aventador, I prefer Aventador over this. Because it is much more smooth and euphoric experience. This one tbh had too much buzzing that was counter productive in the beginning of my workout where I am supposed to lift the heaviest weights. I personally use it this very rarely maybe every 2-3 month.
If you are a stim junkie veteran like me , you might remember the times when Gaspari used to put DMAA into superpump 250!good times.. But today we have very good Daily version of that. Most people sleep on it just like Outrage by Nutrex. It's widely available and ingredients panel is just what stim head might look for high end daily pre workout. What makes this pre stand out is the 3mg of Alpha Yo and L-almitoylethanolamide aka natural PEA. That combo alone gives great mood elevation and sense of urgency. Alpha Yo effects are apparent. You feel that drive, Agressive vibes and some of the negatives like runny nose. But it's nothing crazy and manageable. Taste is great Italian ice taste like Lemonade. Easy to add any pump formula since it has less citruline. Be careful there are two versions of this product with different label. US version is the way to go
Out of all Crack series from Dark Labs this must be the smoothest one. I personally enjoyed this pre-workout but still it left to be desired a little bit more the main ingredient in this just makes it mellow and maybe a little too much smooth is the Kanna extract. I never had too much problems with L-theanine and in pre-work, but Kanna seem to effect a lot more in terms of getting in the way of feeling the stims to the maximum. Taste is great, pumps definitely need a pump formula stacked on top of it. It is a builder type of pre workout, it never slaps or you don't feel the exact moment when the pre hits. It's an old drama free that will help you with any body part you are going to train I wouldn't say it's ideal for heavy weight lifting PRS and taking the training to the next level but it definitely provides great sense of well-being mood elevation and motivation to train. Post workout never had any issues or crash. Slowly fades away. In conclusion if you are looking for smooth 2 amino pre with no side effects or drama that's a solid choice.
Just like most high stim pre workouts this was unfortunately fallen in category of pre workouts that got nerfed and good goods removed from their products by the time passed., the original Euphoria pre workout sample that I had was way better than the version that I have now it did have a lot of motivation and great energy like it wasn't the best pre workout out there but it did provide enough boost for you to lift very heavy in the gym and have great mood and well being sensation but unfortunately the latest version that I bought later on was quite bunk it didn't feel like the previous version it provided a little to no model elevation despite the name says Euphoria it did not provide any for you it felt like a caffeine and maybe a little bit of all for you I took it way over the dose I took it to closer to 19 G to try to make it work but unfortunately it did not so overall that's appointing experience I do not recommend this version so it's a good versions are in the past and you can or get much better other highest improve workouts that has the DMBA and works I had a good things about the above all. Only thing is very nice is the taste and maybe the pumps. It has the same flavor as the Stim Shady Snowcone flavor because of the the same manufacturer.
I had quite high hopes for the spring workout and I thought it would be successor of Zeus pre-workout because the label and The Vibes and, general reviews about it was pointing out that will be replacement for Zeus. I got it from nutria cartel it's not an revolutionary label is pretty much copy of the previous pre-workouts that I've been out there. I got Blue razz flavor, as manufacturer of Xtremis Cartel and Vices and vibes this pre also has bad flavoring system. Evemat 1 scoop its extremely chemical, bitter hard to drink let alone enjoy , bitter medicine aftertaste lingers for a while. But the effects of this pre workout doesn't justify that or high price of this pre. At 2 scoops I experienced no euphoria or mood elevation as everyone has been saying. If I'd like a caffeine and some weird head feeling that was not contribute to work out or did not Aid me to push harder overall that disappointing experience I do not recommend to just anyone I heard good about about things that Yayo edition only thing that was added was three milligrams Alpha Euro I can see you to be in a strong workout but this version the regular version did not work for me
I have tried sample from UK version of Doomsday Destruction. Tbh I was kinda scared to take it because the reviews said it's super strong and Alpha Yo slap is real. But when I tried it surprisingly it was extremely great experience and I was totally blown away! Serving size is 18 G but I took 15 G and broke the 3 G additional powder it was me to the gym if it was not enough I would drink it later but to be honest there was no need because at the 15 g mark it was extremely perfect 10 out of 10 high stim ore workout experience there was a lot of motivation there was a lot of aggression Good Vibes happy mood. I was dancing between sets and didn't care about people in the gym. Music sounds way groovier than usual I was on RCHP and silly Limp Biztik songs and just cruising, floating through the workout and gym itself. It really reminded me how DMHA pre should make feel like. No side effects, no scaries, just enjoying the moment, appreciating life every set, rep, being best version of yourself. I didn't have any alpha yo side effects just the benefits. Tbh it was better experience and I prefer this even over Deliverance which I thought is my #1 pre at the moment. But Koka labs did deliver even more! Absolutely loved this. I will try to get one from UK because... Rumors say... US Version is different than UK and not for the better. It's a stim junkie dream pre
Back in the day we had Irate by Jaggernaut nutrition and it was very good high stim pre work out we had DMAA in it. First when I saw it I was like maybe it's a comeback? But quickly we all understood that it's the beginning of the new era which is the would Sticky Labels pre workout. Now about the experience The Taste horrendous very hard to drink extremely colored and unpleasant. The energy and the other other effects of from the stimulants come rather quickly at first it feel too much but then it levels out but you're still stimmed the hell up, tons of energy, urgency and underlying anxiety to do more and makes you feel restless. But it does come with a cost for me which is nausea and post workout crash. Overall I would rather take smash or DMHA pre workouts. I'm not a fan of paying price with this pre with all the post gym aftermath drama I get from it. Pumps are okay muscles doesn't blow up but they feel extremely dense.
