      Taste? ehhh
      I liked the effectiveness in terms of pump/energy, but the taste really started to be terrible. It truly tastes like you took Sour Patch Watermelon (which I love) and blended them up in water... not my favorite.

      Taste is amazing
      I don't think it does anything for me regarding energy or muscle pumps but I love the taste. I mix it with prune juice every morning. It has become a ritual, one of the few things I look forward to when I wake up.

      Orange is ok but sour watermelon is 5 stars.

      I really enjoy the dosing and price point of this pre-workout. I've only tried a couple pre-workouts, but this is the best so far. Watermelon tastes great, too.

      RAW Nutrition Essential Pre Workout Powder, Sour Watermelon
      I had a serous reaction to this after taking it prior to my workout. It gave me an itchy, fire, tingly feeling that did subside for hours (3 hours) RAW Nutrition Essential Pre Workout Powder, Sour Watermelon. After taking Benadryl & ALOT OF WATER. Just purchased it last night & will be taking back for a refund today?.

        Frequently Asked Questions

        What are essential amino acids?

        Essential amino acids (EAAs) are amino acids that your body can’t produce enough of on its own, including leucine, isoleucine, valine, histidine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, and tryptophan. EAAs support muscle growth and recovery.

        What are micronized free-form amino acids?

        Micronized free-form amino acids are single amino acids that are already in a pre-digested form for faster absorption by the body.

        Why is nitric oxide important?

        Nitric oxide plays a key role in exercise endurance because it’s a vasodilator. A vasodilator is a substance that supports the dilation of blood vessels for increased blood flow.
