Transparent Labs Stim-Free Pre-Workout - Caffeine & Stim Free Pre Workout Powder for Men and Women with Beta Alanine Powder, Citrulline Malate, & elevATP - 30 Servings, Strawberry Lemonade

First, I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor. Some of the reviews here had me dreading it, but I've tried both strawberry lemonade and blue raspberry, and can happily report that they're both decent. It's about the flavor you'd expect if Monster Energy made a strawberry lemonade or blue raspberry flavor....not something you'd drink for fun, but if you can handle Monster, this will taste fine. As for effectiveness, I bought both Lean and Stim-Free, and both of them make an immediate and noticeable difference. I can't yet comment on long term gains, but what I can say is: After taking Lean for just a week, I added two reps for both pull-ups and bench press, and that's after being stuck on a plateau for bench for the past few weeks. I was also massively more energetic during my initial warmup. I also took Stim-Free before a morning jog. I noticed a clear tingling sensation in my face and chest, which is one of the potential side effects associated with greater bloodflow. I'm not a very good runner and usually get lactic acid pain pretty quickly, but during this run, there was no lactic acid at all, which is one of the main benefits that Stim-Free claims. I felt purely limited by how hard I was breathing and not by muscle pain. One week in and I'm already a clear five stars. I'll check back in once I have evidence of long term gains. Edit: Results after one year! Long term, I found that this stuff makes the biggest difference for running. The citrulline malate and beta alanine are incredible for running, especially if you're like me and usually limited by lactic acid. After a lifetime of struggling to run more than 3 miles, I ran my first full marathon last year! The only way I can describe it is legitimately life changing. On the lifting side, I think the main benefit for lifting was honestly the caffeine in the Bulk version (plus taking creatine, which is not in this supplement). If you're only lifting and not running, consider saving some money by just trying some caffeine + theanine pills. I also tried a DIY approach to further save money: on Amazon, I bought generic citrulline malate and beta alanine powders, along with caffeine pills and some flavor powder. I can happily report that the DIY preworkout works just as well as this product but for less than half the price!

I’ve been using transparent labs products for over a year now a little pricey, but worth it if you train regularly. Awesome, clean an effective product. If you want to bulk up you will get that pump if you’re leaning out like I am to have a more athletic look, works great but of course with any product you take, nutrition is 90% the battle. You will get the tingling effect for a few seconds, but goes away quickly. I’m 59 years old and do hiit and metabolic conditioning style training. I’m a big proponent of kettlebell which I have been doing for over a year now. When those workouts get intense, I’m able to push through and go a little further, which is great for those heavy days if you will. Basically stim free does the job when it comes to pump and energy to get the job done. I do recommend cycling off after you finish your tub for about 7 to 10 days, it’s just what I do and works for me. So if you like stim free, do the subscribe and save which I recommend.

Tingles for sure, but subsided after consistent use. They felt like a little shot of the adrenaline needed to power through a hard workout. Tastes great and digests easily. No after effects at all. Definitely buying this again!

Works good but gives me crazy diarrhea. May not do this for others. I will note the company gave me a full refund, and I did not even ask..they just offered. Which is shockingly and nice of them.

"I work in construction during the day and train right after work. I was looking for a caffeine-free pre-workout because I didn't want it to affect my sleep, and this product has worked incredibly well. It helps me maintain my performance in the gym without feeling jittery or anxious. The ingredients are high quality and the dosages are fully transparent. Very satisfied with this purchase!"

Pretty good workout, gets the job done. Perfect for afternoon night workouts. Able to sleep at night and give enough energy to have a good workout after a 12 hour Maintance shift. Recommend it.

Does not work, makes me nauseous and weak. Very bummed that it doesn’t work. I hit the gym late at night and don’t want caffeine pre workout to affect my sleep, so I figured I’ll try a stim free pre workout. Also taste very very sour

Strawberry lemonade tastes great! Gives a good lasting pump through entire workout.
