Animal Fury - Pre Workout Powder Supplement for Energy and Focus - 5g BCAA, 350mg Caffeine, Nitric Oxide, Without Creatine - Powerful Stimulant for Bodybuilders - Ice Pop, 30 count

Okay. I don’t often write reviews but whoa. I also don’t do energy drinks so I can’t compare this to any but what a kick. On my first try of Animal blue and had an explosive workout. I pyramid down on arms and hit walls on all my sets. I usually eat after my workouts but I lacked any appetite. I started to crash and also felt jittery. Even though it’s my first use it’s another option added to my routine. I don’t think I will use it every day but it’s nice to know it’s an option when I need the extra kick. Oh. And I mix with half cran juice/half water and it was delicious. Just finished my second try of this product. Leg day. Mixed my blue popsicle with pomegranate juice. Taste was okay. A bit medicine like. My evaluation thus far is still Wow. Explosive workout. Destroyed my legs. BUT. I can’t say I like the way I feel afterwards. Weird. Almost out of body. Kinda thought I was having a stroke. This feeling stuck with me a long time. I remember feeling a little weird the first time as well. Also like the first try I had no appetite. Strange because I’m usually starving after my training. Not sure if I’m sensitive to one of the ingredients but I’m going to half my next try.

I’ve been taking this for some months now I would say 4 1/2 to 5 months. It is so good. I love that it has additional BCAAs in there. I want to advise that it is very STRONG! For the caffeine sensitivity’s folks! In the beginning I did not follow instructions to take half a cup to start and I took a full cup for my afternoon session in the gym, and I was awake to the wee hours of the morning lol!! My recommendation is to start with half a cup and see how you feel now in days I do morning gym, so I take a full cup right away because I need that energy and it lasts me pretty much all day. As far as taste, it definitely does have that chalky taste, which I don’t mind and I also don’t drink it with 8 ounces of water either. I drink it with very little water, maybe 2 oz just to take it in.

Love this pre workout! I get up early to get my workout in and without this I don’t know that I could do it! Definitely gives you the jolt of caffeine as well as that tingly feeling to get you moving!

Ok I want to hold back a bit on my enthusiasm, out of fear the product might take a spike in price. But this product, while a bit underwhelming on the ingredients, does indeed actually seem to work and give me a bit of a boost in both mood and energy. I typically do not rely, and or find it necessary to use things like this to get more out of my workouts, but I do however use this from time to time as an alternative to coffee and overall find it much more affordable and cheaper than paying for energy drinks. Also, I want to make it known, Ive tried a good of deal of pre-workouts and while I remember no -xplode working the best, which ironically enough was also my first try at any pre-workout. Much like any other stimulant or "drugs", this type of thing can and will become addictive and much like chasing the dragon, you will never actually catch the damn thing and will instead drain your pockets and your sanity. Sadly, the supplement industry and a lot of these athletes that are getting paid from the companies know it and will swear on their life that they do indeed have a place. Moral of the story, use as per needed and never use more than advertised or catch yourself being addicted.

Probably a good product, but since I am an experienced user and have a bit of caffeine addiction, this doesn't hit as hard as a lot of other products. BCAA dosage is on point, but the need for pre-workout that has a higher stimulant dosage is something I am looking for.
