Alpha Pro Nutrition VEX Pre Workout Powder, Explosive Energy with Acute Focus & ATP Generators, Fruits of Paradise, 30 Servings

Gave noticeable energy and focus the first few times of taking it, but then didn't notice any extra energy after taking regularly. But when I tried working out without it, I could easily notice that I was getting fatigued much quicker.

I really wanted this to work but it doesn't seem like it does. I have been using this for just under a week now. I will add that I have used many preworkouts in the past decade or more. Recently, I have been using just Citrulline and Argenine mixed with a lightly caffeinated BCAA. I swapped to Vex to see what all of the commotion was about and I have to say I am disappointed.First off. The flavor sucks. This doesn't usually matter to me, I mean hell, I have taken elastijoint before, but at least that stuff works. This flavor is just awful. You would think that there would be a trade off but there isn't. I tend to take my preworkouts about 15-20 minutes after my morning meal before I workout. I give it about 30minutes to kick in and generally by the time I finish my warmup on the stationary bike I can usually feel it starting. This never occurs with Vex. So I just moved on to my workout.With my previous mixture I would generally be able to last about 30 minutes before I felt any sort of fatigue kick in. Muscle fatigue set in earlier, yes, but overall fatigue started at roughly 30 minutes. With Vex, I can't say that I ever felt "amped up" "focused" or anything of the like, just the fatigue as if I was running a dry (no supplement) workout. Which I have done before. I will definitely be swapping to something else or nothing after this, considering that is what this felt like.

Not a huge surge of energy, but it will keep you going.

does what it's supposed ot do but the flavor is a little hard to take so I mix it with a little bit of a mango BCAA that I have, just to get it down.

Dont really feel the rush... of anysort... the next day i feel extremly dehydrated.... wont be buying it again

My husband was excited to try this Vex Pre Workout powder as he likes to choose when he adds Creatine and beta-alanine to his workouts. He also has a number of neurological issues and relies on some of the ingredients in Vex just to counteract the effects of some of them, so he was happy to see some of the ingredients listed that potentiate his nootropics stacks. He suspected this would be a good fit, with or without a workout.First, he found the flavor to be way stronger than what others have described as a Berry Tang. He said it is a pleasant flavor blend, but that is is almost like drinking a sugary syrup. For him the energy effect after a dose of Vex is stronger than the effects of coffee, but it does leave him a little wound up...almost a hyper feeling. When he used it as intended as a pre workout, this extra energy has the perfect, intended outlet. When used as part of his nootropic stacking, he still appreciated the energy lift.I received this product for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

I was really surprised by the flavor of this pre workout powder. It's smooth and a bit fruity. I feel like it mixes really well and what I like to do with it is put ice in the cup first, then one scoop and then put water and mix it up. For me, personally, the colder it is, the better it tastes.As far as the energy boost. It definitely works! I wouldn't say this is the most effective I have ever tried, but it is definitely up there! I can really tell the difference when I use this before a workout and when I don't. It gives me that extra boost to be able to push just a little harder and a little longer in my workouts.The container is smaller than I thought it would be for a 30 serving container and I did question the tiny little scoop in there thinking that it wouldn't be enough to just use one scoop. After the first use I figured out pretty quickly that tiny little scoop goes a long way! It most definitely is enough! I love that the container is small enough that you can easily pack it in your gym bag if you want to make a fresh cup when you get there and do your warm ups and stretches. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who works out and needs that little extra boost! The price point is also pretty good considering competition brands are about twice as much as this.I received this product for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

I wanted something different in a pre-workout, something less stimulant-heavy and more ATP oriented, something beta-alanine and creatine free. Not that I don’t use them both, but I prefer to add them to my intra workout instead. So when I discovered VEX by Alpha Pro – a name I know and trust – I decided to give it a try. VEX is different, it focuses more on ATP production – the energy source your muscles actually use – and not simply a ton of CNS stims. Don’t get me wrong, VEX does a great job of promoting focus and alertness, it will get you motivated to train but it uses a special blend of aminos that help prolong ATP production – so I could get more reps and sets – that’s exactly what I wanted! The stim-based energy is clean, smooth and longer lasting, not bombastic and over the top – who can train when you’re hands are shaking from stim-overload? Not me! This product does what a pre-workout should do – help me train longer and harder, I highly recommend it!
