The best experience I've had on this pre was with a 17g scoop, so about 1.3 scoops. I have the tiki mango which tastes good! The mood elevation/ excitement and head buzz comes in quick in about 15 minutes I'd say you are eager to get to the workout. Then at about the 30 minute mark the buzz moves to the rest of your body, it warms your body up as well. Then a rush of energy and dialed in focus comes in. You're just feeling that mind muscle connection and the weights are easy. PRs are expected on this pre for sure! This buzz, happy, floating feeling continues for the rest of the workout and you could lift forever it seems. Even hours after the workout you're in a good mood and there's no crash. The pumps were decent too. There is no drama on this pre and it's good for any workout you choose. It's a hitter for sure!

Doomsday 1 scoop 18g, sense of urgency came so quick i shit my pants, well I made it to the toilet but you get the picture. The energy swooped in at about 15 minutes, followed by a nice head buzz and locked in focus. The weights were moving as if I were on the moon. As for the mood, it was a mix of aggression and nervousness but also calm. Then, once it all leveled out, I was just in a bubble and just moving along with the workout. Endurance was good because the alpha yo smoothed out, I was sweating like a madman also. Now that the dust has settled, I'm in a great headspace, wide awake and in a good mood. This was definitely a great pre, and there were some PRs in today's workout. This was like machine pre but with a little less aggression and less panic.
Took three scoops (15g) of dexter today. The taste was not great, but who gives a fuck about flavor! I would say it took about 15-20 minutes before the energy and mood elevation came in pretty quickly and stuck throughout the workout. I was just in a great mood the entire time and really enjoying myself. Nice slight head buzz and focused on the weights. Got PRs on every lift and had great confidence in all of my lifts. No drama and no crash. The pumps were not anything special on this. Writing this several hours after the workout and I'm just still in a great mood and have that nice little head buzz going on. I would compare this to a slightly less euphoric aventador and slightly less focus than killswitch.
