X-CITE Pre-Workout by ATHLEAN-X - Enhanced Formula with Beta-Alanine, Creatine & Caffeine for Energy, Endurance, Focus & Muscle Pump, NSF Certified for Sports (22 Servings, Sunny Pink Lemonade)

I'm a big fan of Jeff, I've been following him for years and using his products. My favorite part of his philosophy is the no BS he provides. Everything in his products, amounts, are listed and have researched, clinically proven, peer reviewed dosages to be as effective as possible without being wasteful (you can take as much creatine/protein powder you want but your body can only absorb so much at one time and you piss the rest). I've taken C4 (original & new), NO-Explode (original & new), Ghost, Bucked Up, Total War, Animal, etc. I'd be here all day mentioning them all, but point is this matches them in terms of energy, mental focus, taste and helped pioneer the market into a more respectable state that it's in now where most companies now put the majority of their ingredients on the bottle. No more "Proprietary Blend" BS. I've been watching & using his products for long enough now that I trust his products & the information he provides, unlike that one Vince guy (take your pick on which one).

As an avid follower of Athlean X, I can honestly say that Jeff Cavaliere's supplement line has never disappointed me throughout my 10 years following his fitness programs. I love the energy, the focus, and the ability I get from the preworkout to attack my workouts hard. Nothing compares to this and I am forever grateful to not only follow programs that have given me the results I've been looking for, but also take supplements that I 100% have strong trust in! If you want to take your workouts to the next level, the Athleanrx supplement line will help you do just that!

Since I started using this product I am having a stronger workout with more endurance. I have tried C4, Alpha, Ghost and a few more over the years. X-Cite has proven a tastier product that increased my results. An additional bonus is the creatine in it. It’s in the HCI form and has no water retainment side affects.

This pre-workout works great for me. Athlean x supplements seem to have less ingredients than most other brands. That's a good thing. I've used this stuff for years. Although I've only tried cherry and orange, for my taste, they're very sweet. Adding more water solves this.

I bought the product without checking out the ingredients carefully. Upon closer inspection, I find it is sweetened with sucralose. Noe I'm going to have to throw out the whole thing.

Great product. I use it before my work out. 🏋️‍♀️ I wait 45 minutes then do my exercises. The x-cite gives me extra energy for a good workout

UPDATE: I now take half the dose recommended in the instructions and have not experienced the same issues as previously. I still feel the same positive effects though not so intensely. It still works well though.I am going to list some precautions as I just used this for the first time and did not have the most positive experience. Long story short: it made me sick to my stomach and would not reduce until the very end of my workout. As you could expect, this was very distracting.I am 23 years-old, male, and very physically active. I am 5'7" and weigh 155 pounds (70.3 kg). I workout 5-6 days a week and do high-intensity weight-lifting and occasional endurance routines but this pre-workout STILL made me feel horrible.That being said, it did work. I felt very intense and pushed much harder than usual. Overall, I felt stronger and more focused. However the sick feeling in my stomach would not go away and really made it all painful.Also, ordered the watermelon flavored kind. It smelt great but tasted weird.I plan to experiment with the dosage and will update this review later.Recommendations:1. CONTROL DOSAGE! The scooper is very large comparatively. The recommendation is one scoop about 20-30 minutes prior to working out. I took it and felt both the good and bad side effects within 10 minutes. It came on very fast and persisted throughout the workout which both helped my intensity but also forced me to push through the gastrointestinal issues. I am planning to attempt half-doses or possibly even quarter-doses in the future.2. DRINK TONS OF WATER! Most pre-workouts recommend keeping lots of water closeby but for this pre-workout it is a necessity. I drink lots of water during workouts and still could have used more. It was the main reason that the stomach issues were bearable. Drink lots of water BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER exercise with this pre-workout because it really helps.3. HIGH-INTENSITY ONLY! If you plan on doing low or moderate-intensity exercises, this is definitely not the product for you. Just based off of this experience, I cannot imagine what it might do to somebody that is not training with higher intensity. I'd say it would even be potentially dangerous for such cases.4. BEGIN WORKOUT SOON AFTER! As I said, the recommendation is taking this about 30 minutes before working out. I felt the effects within 10 minutes. Luckily, my gym is close by. Even so, highly recommend being prepared to begin workout quickly to reduce negative feelings.5. CONSIDER YOUR OTHER SUPPLEMENTS. If you use other supplements before working out, consider how they may interact with this. I typically take creatine supplements, Vitamin-C, and Cordyceps. There is already creatine in this pre-workout so I reduced the creatine I took separately to accommodate.All in all, this product has potential but definitely needs to be used with some precaution. It works well for intensity but the jittery, sick sensations I felt were really inconvenient. I will update this review as I figure out better ways to use this, if possible.

Great product. I’m happy it’s now available on Amazon when I need it in a hurry! Just to e right amount to help my workout.
