Crack Primal Pre-Workout Reviews

For a slightly milder high-stim experience, Dark Labs Primal Edition is a great option. It offers a good boost in energy without the same extreme intensity as other Dark Labs products. The pump is moderate, delivering some muscle fullness, and there’s a subtle mood lift that enhances focus. Flavor-wise, Primal Edition is pretty standard, making it easy to drink. This pre-workout works well for intermediate users who want a bit more energy without overwhelming effects.

Batch 2 is so much better than batch one. Batch two you get a cleaner DMHA vibe. Caffeine is less intense. Pumps are solid but not amazing. Second batch is more nootropic and less physical energy but there’s plenty of physical energy to help you hit PRs. Flavor is okay not as bad as first batch as well. Recommend for stim junkies only

Overall was pretty disappointed with this pre, I was really hoping to get some good mood elevation out of the Juglans, but beyond a decent boost in energy all I could really focus on during the experience was how gross my stomach felt. I think it was mainly a combo of the flavor and the Alpha Yo. I tried running it twice, once with half a scoop and the next time with a full one. Granted this was purchased in 2023 so maybe the formula has gotten better since.

Flavor was tough for me. Didn’t love it.

This provides your average dark labs buzz with high energy. Great workout. Could use better pumps. Definitely better on the dark labs roster.

Another High stim, high energy Dark Labs classic. DMHA pre workout.

Experience: Beta Alanine tingles – strong. Energy kicks in strong and fast. Urgency is apparent, Not jittery, collected and focused, just feeling good. Alpha Yo nose runs and aggression.You will feel strong on this one, weights feel light. Great focus and good mood elevation. Stacked formula. OYou don’t get tired or fatigued. Post workout feel good. Pumps are mid, you can add pump pills. Flavor is Peachy Witchy. It’s okay.

Overall 9/10. Reliable option to train hard, to push limits.

Dark Labs always delivers hitters with strong energy and decent pumps, flavor is better than most Dark Labs products.

I am a pretty big fan of this one. Takes a little while to kick in, but once it does things really take off. Energy and focus are good, they last a long time and have you pushing hard during your workout.

Flavor is doable and pumps are decent, but nothing amazing. Heart rate was a little higher than I would like and it gave me a good sense of energy for several hours even after the gym.

Only had a sample of this one, but I will buy a tub next time I need a new product. Good mood elevation and really good focus. Another hitter by dark labs.

Good one from dark labs and overall better than most pre workouts but compared to their other pres I liked this one a bit less. Good energy

2-amino at 250mg with 1.75mg of alpha yohimbine is probably the most noticeable takeaways from the list of ingredients. The dosage of these two seem to work absolutely beautifully together. The citrulline mallate could be a little higher at 2:1 6grams, leaving you with just 4grams of citrulline. Beta-alanine is at its clinical finest 3200mg effective dose. The N-phenethyl (Eria Jarensis) at 300mg is a good dose but I’ve done well with 500mg and would probably liked to have just a little more Eria.

This was the 3rd batch of crack products from dark labs that I’ve purchased and has been in my rotation for the past 6 months. I would run this 1-2 times a month with my opinion having changed recently only due in part to the new Dark Labs products (maniaco specifically comes to mind) that have come out. It is a very hard driving pre-workout that comes with a strong sense of urgency and makes you work extra hard. I always go for extra reps on Primal and don’t even realize failure is setting in until failure sets in.

I always tend to start off doing cardio before my sets and with crack primal, I learned to reduce the amount of time doing a cardio warm up because I would get too eager and want to start lifting. This is one of those strong 2-amino DMHA pre-workouts that have your heart rate reaching cardio numbers by your 2nd set anyway, so it was more about getting the heavy work in than the heart rate. Highly intense mood elevation, music sounds better, lots of focus and determination. There’s no chill with Crack Primal, this is one of those pre-workouts with moderately high intensity. You might find yourself looking in the mirror at the gym thinking “there’s a million war crimes out there, how come I haven’t been charged with a single one? What am I doing with my life? I need to commit a felony or something!”

Taste is terrible, Dark Labs doesn’t have the best taste profiles for a lot of their products and primal seems to be one that is no exception. The sample I first got from Ruescos was “peachy witchy” and it tasted like a mix between medicine and crystal meth. I didn’t notice any peach and the taste was rough enough for me to remember this over a half year later. The full tub I bought was pineapple sangria which has the taste of the smell of what hunters rub on themselves to get bear’s horny… or something. It was no good but not really worth complaining about either.
