Most of the ingredients in here seem hard to prove benefit of. But I can say it doesn’t give much energy, pump or mood elevation. Also the taste was terrible. Something coconut tho

Oddly tasted how a firework smells, but not hard to get down. Very subtle effects all around for me with valid pumps.

Can’t deny this is a great daily. Beats really hit. I had a coconutty flavor. Good pump and surprising mood elevation.

Great healthy nonillicit pre. The power doesn’t last very long, but it’s still hard to sleep if taken later in the day. I’d say the effects lasted around 2.5 hours. I believe my flavor was watermelon lemonade and it was quite nice.

Either people are lying about the flavor or I got an old batch. It was yellow and kinda clumped, but it was damn near impossible to get down.

Cant deny the pumps were pretty great though. Shoulder and chest veins were popping

I gotta say I’m pissed. Every review channel said this was bunk with good qualities making it a good daily.

Yeah, it’s not. Not sure if this is some new batch or not (cause I got it from Ruesco), but all the reviews from years ago are wrong. This thing definitely has alpha yo, and if not true DMAA, then something very similar to it.

I’m pissed because I dislike alpha yo and wanted to get some sleep tonight.

I almost immediately got the alpha yo saliva feels. Got the sweats later on. DMAA gives me crackhead energy, moving through every day tasks at 5x speed. When I got back home and ate dinner, showered, and prepped for bed in under 30 minutes, I knew it had DMAA/adjacent in it.

Do not listen to the old reviews. Tasted like pure chemicals with a lemon lime hint.

Apollon stays atop the worst tasting preworkouts. Couldn’t even tell you which flavor it was. Pumps were good with what I could muscle down.

Initial taste of hubba bubba with an aftertaste of spicy fat burning ingredients. Haven’t felt beta itches like this in a minute. Provided great energy for 1.5 hours then tapers off. Would say it caused me to sweat a good amount.

Great lime flavor from the hulk juice, but that’s pretty much it. Some energy, little pumps. Didn’t get any tingles. Left me wanting more for sure.

I received this pre as a free supp from one of nutricartels promos a while back.I never got to try the original Arez which was made by a different manufacturer.But this one is no good. Label claims dmha and noopept but I didn’t feel it.All you get with this is a little caffeine kick and some pumps.FDN and GGH reviewed this one and said the same thing about this pre and I can’t argue with what they said about it. I don’t think you can even get this Arez anymore as well.

High end daily pre workout. With total 600mg amount of caffeine, eria and PEA I’d expected a lot more slap, energy and mood elevation from it. Still had me going strong and confident on the weights. Flavor is Break stuff, I have no idea what it supposed to be, but it taste nice, a little sour with a subtle bitterness on the back end. Gotta put on the Limp Bizkit while pumping iron with this pre!

Good choice for a daily pre workout. Certainly is a little bit expensive for ingredients and dosages. Nevertheless performance is really good on this one. I like the pumps, even tho citruline is underdosed, together with arginine stabilized silicate adds new layer to pumps.

Flavor I got is Miami (strawberry /mango /pineapple) it’s very solid flavor. I didn’t feel like it had 2 mg of Alpha Yo, maybe it’s poorly sourced. Feels like 350-400 mg Caffeine and maybe 0.5 mg of Alpha Yohimbine

My least favorite Dark labs product. Despite it doesn’t have DMHA it is quite overwhelming experience for me at 2 scoops and not so effective or good at 1 scoop. Just like Crack OG, I couldn’t find sweet spot for this pre workout to work for me. Excessively Elevated heart rate isn’t pleasant to train with, I had to take 5 minutes breaks to recover from a set. I’m not a fan of big dose of Lion’s mane too. Enegry is too much and not good for productive training. Hard pass. Flavor I have is Tangerine orange, hard to drink, harsh flavor.

Your basic run of the mill preworkout.Very little pumps.Very little energy and underdosed label. Good for a beginner but even for beginners there are much better options out there.Flavor is great.Could be option for cardio use.

Decent pre workout choice for beginners. Even tho it’s underdosed in many categories of ingredients it’s still can get the job done. Their trademark deer antler velvet extract ingredients doesn’t do anything special. It’s just marketing thing.

I’m a big fan of pump only formulas which I can add to stim heavy pre workout which lacks pump ingredients. Which is Pimp is one of the best choices out there. Secondary reason for that is to mask the bad flavor of high stim pre workout. For this Pimp is the last choice among all pump formulas. I’m already not a fan of apple flavors but this one is absolutely horrid. I used it couple times with flame and psychotic it gave unbelievable pumps and mind muscle connection, yet I was burping through out the work both times, lingering bad taste wouldn’t leave me, I’m usually pretty chill with bad flavors, but this one just was very heavy on my stomach and gave me nauseated feeling too. So I got rid of it. But for ingredients labels is my favorite, if I’d formulate any pump formula it would be this, maybe adding NO3T Nitrates too.

Original DMAA version of Herolean. It was pretty hard to get and It’s pretty hardcore label. Yo-yo blend isn’t a joke. It’s highly thermogenic and when you take it it feels like nuclear heat is building up inside of you and you have to get the energy out of system. Due this reason sense of urgency is very strong and litte bit overwhelming at times, but you have to lock in and keep working, training. Sweating is ridiculous on this one, I have taken pre workout which has 50mg gbb and haven’t sweat this much. Definitely not recommend for leg day since cardiovascular limitations, heart rate gets in the way. It gets clumped up real fast, just like Flame. Tropical Punch flavor is nasty. I stack pump formulas with it, since it has none

Nice clean hitter for Stim junkies.I think you could use this 2-3 times a week and not feel like you are harming yourself.Definitely feels like Juglans as mentioned on label as opposed to the lab made 2 amino. No alpha yo so no real sense of urgency.But pumps are great and you just feel healthy on this pre. Flavor I got was jungle juice and tasted very good.

One of the best Stim junkies pres that I have tried. I see that they recently regulated this preworkout and does not list “geranium extract” on the tub.The tub I have is the OG batch. This pre really covers all basis.Its nothing over powers itself.The energy is just right.I don’t know if it legit Dmaa or what but you definitely feel a warmth in your core and I totally believe that there is something else in here besides dmha. I also like that this contains noopept which an ingredient that is very hard to find in preworkouts these days.Really helps in aiding in that tunnel vision focus. You are gonna be buzzing for a good 2 hours for your workout.I can’t even say that I really have any major side effects from this pre.The come down is pretty smooth and I get no real crash at all. You may be a little thirsty but that is normal for a pre with these kind of ingredients. If you can find a tub of this somewhere and it’s the OG batch I would 100% pick it up.

Ultimate comeback of the Legendary Pre workout. Back in the day it was considered one of the most euphoric pre-workouts out there. The formula is the same except a glycerol was removed due a clumping issues. But it does not take away from the pumps whatsoever. What I like the most about it it has the lower caffeine content and only 100 mg of dmha. Motivation and focus is the star of the show. I would consider it a beginner steam junkie pre-workout with no drama or side effects smooth clean experience that helps with your performance

I had a samples of Crack OG. First time I took it at 1 scoop. It was okay, nothing serious or crazy, so after a week, yesterday I decided to take about 1.5 scoops(16grams on scale). And it didn’t go well… The energy kick and focus came pretty fast and built up in like 10-15 minutes. Experience started very good, crazy strength output and power, I did some heavy pressing and had PR’s on each exercise. It kept building the whole time. Towards the end, I felt off and cold sweats came with nausea. While performing the set I was feeling good, between sets I was feeling weak and sick. Had to cut the workout short and go home. That’s when survival mode began. I don’t remember when the last time any strong high stim pre workout made me fight for my life lol I usually don’t have issues with elevated heartbeat or something. On this one it was apparent. It slowly wore off in 4-5 hours. I’m glad I didn’t went for 2 scoops, but it didn’t worth it at 1.5 scoops too. I enjoyed pretty much every Dark Labs pre out there. But this one is hard pass for me mainly because there’s no sweet spot for me with this one. 1 scoop is less and anything above that dose is too much.

Taken 2 with each use. Have never take. solo, always with another pre.

These are useful to tune up a lesser pre into a more stim junky experience. I’ve used them a few times and didn’t get a ton out of them. Maybe some more energy, but nothing major. I’ve gotten mood elevation but nothing major. Iver never taken them by themselves or for purposes other than lifting. Decent product but I’ve not found them as as good or as hard hitting as a pre that already includes 2 Amino in it. Got them half price from Dark Labs so I wasn’t out much but I wouldn’t have been pleased paying full price for them.

This was surprisingly pretty good. I have the previous version as well, the initial DMHA version and felt this iteration was better. Highlights were good solid energy and urgency. Didn’t get too much from pumps, focus was nothing special and didn’t get a whole lot of mood elevation

Upon taking and waiting, I didn’t feel much but after some warmups and getting into work sets (around 40 mins from ingestion) I felt it kick in. Energy was middle hit level. Good endurance through the peak of the energy level. Got quite a few sets and reps in before it started dialing down at around the hour mark.

Flavor was “Topic Gummy”. Didn’t get much tropic but gummy flavor was present and good. Scoop was pretty accurate, just required a touch above full.

Great daily pre with a clean feeling. Doesn’t have much for pumps.Can stack on them if you want.I use this for leg day. This is the type of pre you can take basically every day and not feel like you are harming yourself. Taste is amazing. I’m not sure if this is still being produced or not. If you can find it give it a try

Daily driver for beginners. 200 mg of caffeine doesn’t do much for individuals like me, double scooping makes it good Daily driver pre workout but brings it down to 15 servings, which makes the whole point of affordable pre workout canceled. For 30$ dollar you are getting 15 servings if you use 2 scoops. Mass produced pre workout are suitable for beginners or people who don’t want too much caffeine for their workouts or activities. Beta alanine kick is very nice.

Flavor is citrus grapefruit which taste great,taking into account that there are isn’t much ingredients to mask anyway.

New version of Wrecked is one of best daily pre workouts out there. I definitely didn’t missed the old version which has Eria.

Got a sample from Nutricartel. Serving size is 37.5 grams,which is a lot, didn’t felt heavy on the stomach but the texture of the mix was very gritty and almost felt like protein shake lol. Flavor is watermelon. It’s artificial color free and naturally flavored. Taste is very mild. It smells like watermelon but doesn’t taste like anything. A little hint of flavor, and thus the taste isn’t great. Extremely disappointing for a daily pre. Which they could do better. I’m all for artificial color free pres, but natural flavoring just sucks, just like Transparent Labs Bulk Black.

Experience : Label is loaded and had every ingredient maxed out, double amount of Betas came very fast and stayed for half hour. Strong tingles for sure. Energy and mood elevation followed shortly after. It definitely wakes you up from the dead and commands you to go. Focus is the star of the show. Sense of urgency is top notch. You cannot wait to hit the gym and lift weights. Drive during the workout was very straightforward and apparent

Pumps were nasty on this one. 10 grams of L-Citruline was all enough. Vascular tight pumps. I know it’s a potent daily when I took Unleashed Yayo DMHA pre yesterday and today Wrecked still hit in a best way possible. I like this one

Not a huge alpha yo fan, but I could see this working for one. All the el jefes are pretty similar to me. This one might be the worst flavor wise tho (still not that bad).

Not the biggest alpha to fan so I’ll start with that, but I can see this being a great pre for someone who loves alpha yo. I also messed up and brushed my teeth before drinking, so it didn’t taste the best. Workout was positive though

Slightly less stim than the rest of the loaders. Hardly a difference. Still one of the best non-illicit pres on the market. The loaded pre as well as Godzilla hold this crown for me. Just depends on whether you want creatine or not. This carried me through leg day today. Beautiful energy with great pumps. The flavors do not miss. Whatever flavor sounds best to you, will taste exactly as described.

One of the best non-illicit pres made. Great energy with very respectable pumps. Provided me a very easy leg day.

They never fail with their flavors. Perfect flavors. Energy is on point with very respectable pump. One of the best non-illicit pres made.

I haven’t read too much on my particular batch but this is an absolute hitter and is in my top 3 pws. Lots of mood elevation and energy and insane endurance. Took it on a pull day and got through an hour and a half session followed by 45 minutes of cardio. Felt like I could doubled my cardio session tbh. No side effects as far as jitteriness or elevated heart rate but it did take me a bit to fall asleep, so best taken earlier in the day. No real value with pumps, but stacked with some Panda Pump this is a near perfect stack for me. No issues with flavor or mixability.

One of most effective pws I’ve tried! Very aggressive energy, weights get pushed with so much ease and I felt like I could lift for another couple of hours after a two hour session. Hit a squat PR and then some, and was still able to complete a full leg day after. Pumps were pretty good too, didn’t feel like stacking is necessary. Only issue O had was taste but if you know Dark Labs then you know what to expect. Would definitely buy a tub of it ever comes back in stock.

Just stim blend pre workout feels like high end daily. Label isn’t the greatest, but it doesn’t pretend to be something else to.

I used it almost halfway through before it got clumped up. Energy kick and mood elevation gets you going. Focus is good, you are not distracted, just dialed in the training. Beta alanine tingles are one of strongest in the market, and beta feeling doesn’t quit for good 40 minutes. I like Betaine addition since it helps with power output in the gym. I have single ingredient Beta Alanine from Axe and Sledge that I stack on other pre workouts that doesn’t have it. I always stacked pump formula on top of it, so I would guess without it, pumps weren’t so noticeable or great. Flavor is Lemonade which I don’t like generally and it’s no exception. It’s bitter, aftertaste also not pleasant. 2/5 at best. I will purchase and try new DBAP pre by Axe and Sledge since it looks way more hard hitting than this one.

This is hands down one of best DMHA pres out there, that has no L-theanine, GABA or Kanna any other crap. Grabbed a tub from the last restock at Nutricartel, according to Jake this was the last batch ever.

Taste/Mixability/Serving size – Powder is pretty clumped up, and fixated like that lol It’s like little rocks that won’t turn into powder, to get the full serving size you have to heap the shit out of the scoop or take 1.5 scoops Mixes just fine though. Actually I was surprised it got dissolved after couple shakes and nothing sat at the bottom of the shaker cup. Flavor is Red Gummy, which reminded me El Jefe’s gummy bears flavor. It’s kinda nasty but you can just chug it down.

Experience- Barely felt any beta alanine. It took good 45 minutes to peak. It’s not a slapper. Energy builds up slowly, but it takes you from zero to 100 for sure. Best way I can describe it that, it will make you LOCKED IN. Super focus , drive , aggressive mood elevation are the main points. DMHA feels legit, it’s not euphoric. Mind muscle connection are outstanding, pumps are awesome. I got to agree with HighStimAce view on Citruline Malate being somehow better tha L-Citruline alone. High energy is sustained throughout the workout, you just don’t feel any fatigue or pain. It’s not a drug addict stim junkie pre, you are not feeling high or buzzing. Just working hard and training as brutal as possible,which I really really loved.

Comparison/Similarity – I could say such DMHA pres has its own category which stands out on aggressive mood elevation and endurance. This falls just right in that category along with OG Chaotic Rage, Crack Primal, OG Helios and new Pillager as well.

Post workout – I had good mood, sense of wellbeing and still tons of energy. No fatigue despite the intense training. No major sides effects, except mouth feeling dry and drinking tons of water, like Saul Goodman coming out of dessert. Appetite is down by a lot.

Energy – 5/5

Strength/power output – 4/5

Mood elevation(aggressive) – 5/5

Pumps 4/5

Taste 2/5

Overall- strong 4/5
