Skin tingling

A good clean option for preworkout as Rivalus is one of the seemingly few companies that abides by WADA regulations.

Headache

Upset stomach

Since this product came out I have been dying to try it. I was given some as a Christmas present from my dad and I must say that I am really enjoying it. My second tub is already on the way.

I think the best thing about this product is the mental focus and energy that I get. I have no problem what-so-ever getting into a zone 30 min to an hour after taking it. The level of energy is also surprisingly high. Even after a hour long weight train and 30 min on the treadmill, my mind is still ready to go.

The thing I don't like about this product is the lack of pump. No nitric oxide products, creatine, or caffeine is the reason for this. It's all natural, which is something that matters to me.

If you want a tingly feeling pump-you-up pre-workout, don't look at this. If you want an all natural pre-workout that increase focus and has thermogenic affects, complx5 is right for you.

Oh my dad asked me to put in that he has tried it several times and also thought it was pretty good, though he isn't gunna buy it out right.

cheers

first off, no i did not make up the name of this product, and yes that is what its called. please don't ask how to pronounce it, cause I'll make it up.
anyways, this product is something I decided to give a shot as a stim-free pre-w/o option to help with some mental alertness and endurance. endurance wise it was decent. nothing too exceptional, as it has no stims, but i did feel like my cardio lasted longer. Mental alertness was improved, specifically if i took it before studying for exams.
flavor is there. its orange, and tastes sort of like tang, BUT, it feels almost carbonated, like worse than no-xplode carbonated, which makes it very hard to take down. also, if you mix it in a shaker cup, you will get the noxplode effect of an exploding lid. the other option was when i mixed it into a regular water bottle, there were little to no issues in terms of carbonation or too strong of a taste if i let it sit.
