Why we love it

Pack a punch with this fruity addition to your morning routine. It has a B vitamin blend to support your energy levels.

Optimum Nutrition delivers top ingredients in their most premium pre-workout yet. Each serving provides 175mg of caffeine – almost the same as two cups of coffee – to help increase alertness during a workout.1

The formula also contains creatine, designed for short bursts of high-intensity exercise. 
 

How to take

Just mix one scoop in 350ml of cold water.

Why we love it

You won’t miss this bright green grenade in your cupboards. Each is filled with 100 Black Ops capsules, designed to provide energy and fuel a focused workout.

Every capsule contains a blend of: 
  • green tea extract with caffeine
  • black pepper extract (perfect if you’re taking turmeric as it helps with absorption)2 
  • capsaicin-containing cayenne pepper 
  • 185mg caffeine
 

How to take

You want only capsules at a time and it's not suitable for anyone under 18 years old.
 

Our customers say...

5/5 stars

“I never review anything but felt I had to with this. They’ve curbed my cravings and my appetite but definitely increased my energy when going to the gym first thing in the morning.” – Adeleblack

Tenzing

£1.70

£0.68/100 ml

Why we love it

Named after the Sherpa Tenzing, the first person to set foot on Everest’s summit, it's no surprise that this delivers a serious energy boost.

This plant-based sparkling drink contains no artificial ingredients or additives – just a refreshing raspberry and yuzu flavour with only 48 calories.

Early alarm, gym session, or mountain trail – Tenzing's here for the journey.
 

How to use

Drink when you need a little extra energy – it's ideal as a pre-workout drink or a refreshment on walks.
 

Our customers say...

5/5 stars

“Tastes absolutely amazing, the best energy drink I’ve ever used. Always use when I need a pick-me-up or the perfect pre-workout.” – Millicent Rose
 

The final say

We get the best results when we mix top-quality formulas with convenience and great taste. Your new routine starts here so make sure you understand the best ways to recover after working out, too.

If you're still looking for more, you can learn about how to use creatine for workouts and recovery or give your workout a boost with magnesium.
