Specimen Genesis Full Spectrum High Stimulant Pre-Workout Powder | Supercharged Energy & Muscle Pumps + Focus & Hydration | Great Far-Out Flavors (Lemon Pez)

This brand was my first pre and I’ve been lifting for over 2 years and after this came out I came back and it’s my new favorite. Perfect intensity. Perfect for pump. Great for mindset. LOTS of motivation. Mid flavor.

300mg of Caffeine anhydrous is really effective; maybe a little too effective. I'm currently using it to move cargo for during a move of homes and I can lift better and I don't burn out easily at all. Though at nights I'm finding difficulty to get sleep. Rest yes, bye bye Zzs.

Great product good pumps not over stimulating very good focus

This Specimen Genesis Pre-work out seems to have a fairly comprehensive list of ingredients, including electrolytes for hydration. I'm not familiar with the proposed benefits of many of the other ingredients, aside from the caffeine and beta alanine, which both seem to have appropriate doses here. The flavor is of the Strawberry Watermelon is very reminiscent of the cubes of gum I used to chew as a kid. I'm not sure it's quite necessary to have the assortment of vitamins that are also included. It feels a bit like filler, at least to me. I usually hold a high opinion of this particular brand, so this multivitamin approach felt a bit out of character. I didn't have occasion to find myself in dire need of hydration, though 1100mg seems like a significant amount. However, I didn't find that it detracted from the flavor in any noticeable way, in the way that some hydration drinks suffer from an overpowering saltiness. Two scoops gives the impression you're getting a lot in each serving, though in some instances I think you could still get things done with the 150mg of caffeine in one scoop, bearing in mind that every other ingredient will also be halved. This particular pre-workout seemed to cause less stomach discomfort than many others I've tried, for those that experience similar misfortune. I'm still not sure which specific ingredient causes this to happen, since the most effectual (energy, pump, endurance) ingredients are often shared across all brands. Overall, this pre-workout seems to offer a unique blend of ingredients, albeit at a bit of a price premium.

It does help with the workout but the taste really isn't for me. It leaves this aftertaste.

Been using this in the mornings for a few weeks now. I drink it about 30 minutes before my morning walk. WELL IT has a KICK!!! I’ve only used 1 scoop, which is a half dose, and it gives me a boost! Used to do coffee, but with the super hot temps in the morning lately, I thought I’d try something i could drink cold. The taste isn’t bad at all and it tastes really good ice cold. I think any of the off taste I’m noticing is from the sweetener? I’m not and energy drink person, so i can’t compare it to those. But i do love my coffee and this is up there with a couple of shots of expresso! The powder is really fine and mixes easy too! I keep a shaker bottle with water in the fridge and just add the one scoop and shake well before drinking.

I really like the taste of the Alien Pop flavor. I could tell it had beta alanine in it because my face and skin got a tingling feeling. I only had a single sample so not sure its overall effectiveness in the gym.

I'm a big fan of preworkouts, as they sometimes are just what I need to get the motivation to go workout. This product tastes pretty good - though I did need to water it down a little more than the other (which is ok for me, because I sip it before and during my workout)....It did the trick in terms of motivation and focus and didn't seem to have any unwanted adverse effects to my stomach or anything....I'd say it's a good product :)
