Pre-Workout (Blue Raspberry Flavor)

great product with real effects

This is a great product that delivers on the promise of increased energy and alertness for heavy workouts. If you haven’t used a pre-workout supp with caffeine anhydrous before, you may find that the effect of this main ingredient is quite different than regular caffeine. There are web pages explaining the difference that are worth checking out. I’ve used this Double Wood supplement for a couple years, and also have a lot of experience with other brands. They all work, but what I like about DWS is that the active ingredient list is relatively limited compared to other brands and is plainly stated. Other brands may contain an unspecified amount of creatine, which I do take separately, but I don’t like creatine mixed in with every pre-workout supp or weight gainer that I happen to be using. DWS has 175 of caffeine anhydrous. The other product I’ve used has 275. For me, given that I limit my use of coffee, the 175 is plenty. DWS provides a sharp mental and physical boost within 10 minutes. Best of all, it provides a very noticeable mood elevation effect that I would never get from drinking coffee. Like any stimulant, it’s probably best used sparingly to get the full effect. As an aging meathead, I’d say from experience that if you’re eating enough and sleeping enough, you shouldn’t need a pre-workout supp for every workout, even if it involves heavy barbell training. But it absolutely can make the difference between feeling too mentally tired to even start a workout, and having a productive workout.

Clean energy

I liked the watermelon flavor and can’t wait to try the others. I took this on the way to the gym and definitely felt motivated to work out hard. The best part was how smooth it felt to me. Sometimes preworkout can make me jittery. This one didn’t do that. Just a nice elevation and clean delivery. I’d caution to take this for a day workout. Seemed to keep me up at bedtime but that was to be expected taking it in the evening.
