Genius Pre - Clean Pre-Workout Powder for Energy, Focus & Fitness Support - No Artificial Flavors, Preservatives, or Proprietary Blends - Non-GMO - 20 Servings - Blue Raspberry

Edit: THEY GOT RID OF THE GREEN APPLE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! It was arguably their best ooonneee!!! Plus, if you mixed it with their Genius Muscle, you could make caramel apple! It was sooo goood!!! Original: As someone who's favorite flavor has been Blue Raspberry literally my entire life in every solid "food" (candy, icing, etc) I can think of (except ice cream?? I don't think I've heard of that though) I can't say I like the blue raspberry here because it tastes so different from what I expect blue raspberry to taste like. This seems to be just... a thing with this brand though, as I've experienced the same with the Salted Caramel Brilliant Brew (SC has been my favorite flavor of drink like coffee my whole life) and that tasted oddly gross, too. The scoop for the Blue Raspberry was awful, it was too short and forced you to have a "heaping scoop" to get the serving size which, let's be honest, can never be precise as the heaps can vary widely by person, by day, by scoop. I ordered it July of 2024, it's now April 2025 and I've finally moved onto Green Apple so I can't tell if the scoop changed overall or if the Green Apple has a better scoop but look at this perfection! Did this in one take, just scooped, used the inside ledge to level it and BAM! I've never seen anything be so precise and the extra 0.044 was probably just from the powder on the handle. I hate guess work, I like to be able to work from a certain standard without being low-balled, so now if I choose to do a heaping scoop at least I know what I'm getting. Yes, I drew green apples on my label because Genius has a thing for over-minimalism and the flavor text is small so if you have multiple products from them it becomes difficult to tell at a glance what you're grabbing, esp, I'd assume, if you have bad eyesight considering I have 20-20 and still have troubles with having to look for what the flavor is, so I've taken to drawing on all of them (cacao bean plant for the cocoa brew, dripping pool of caramel for the caramel, you get the point) so that I can tell at a glance what I'm grabbing without having to try to read them. I bought the Green Apple along with Volcarn 2000 Tropical Blast and tried them both for the first time today. Since the Blue Raspberry was assaultingly strongly flavored (and I like strong flavors), I overfilled for the Green Apple out of habit so it was a little light but still good. Perhaps due to this, after trying the Green Apple my first thought was to think that it'd probably taste even better with the Tropical Blast so I took a swig of the former and a sip of the latter and _immediately_ mixed the rest of it together because HFS IT WAS SO GOOD!! I struggle to wake up, I'm the type that takes literal hours if not an entire day just to feel functional but this flavor combination was so good that just the flavor alone woke me up and got me moving.

I asked Chat GPT to help me formulate a pre workout with the best ingredient combination possible (excluding caffeine and anything else that causes a crash). Once it gave me the ingredient list, I started adding all the ingredients to my cart in Amazon individually, but it was A LOT. So instead, I asked it if there were any products on the market that already included all of the ingredients. Genius was the only brand that came even close to having most of the ingredients. I was previously taking Gold Standard Pre Workout and the crashes were HORRIBLE (even only taking half a scoop). The crashes legitimately made me suicidal and gave me horrible anxiety. Gold Standard DID improve my workouts, but NOTHING like Genius. I am 35 y/o and have been really struggling with my workouts lately. The last time I can remember feeling as good during a workout as I do with Genius Pre was when I was 23. I was able to push myself hard and I felt like my body had WAY more stamina. After my workout, I felt seriously euphoric. I don't normally go out of my way to leave product reviews, but I had such a good experience that I wanted to this time. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I've been using Genius Pre Workout for about a week now, pairing it with another product from the same brand, Genius Muscle. Here's my experience so far: I decided to try Genius to switch up from my typical pre which are Gorilla Mind and Satori 3.0 Personal Experience: The taste of the pre-workout is pretty great, even though taste isn't a major factor for me. It mixes well with water and is easy to drink. Benefits: The pump I get from this pre-workout is quite good, rating it a solid 4/5. It doesn't feel like my arms are going to explode, but the pump is definitely noticeable and enhances my workouts. As for the energy boost, I would give it a 3/5. Unlike other caffeine-free pre-workouts I've tried, the energy boost from Genius Pre Workout is subtle. It's there, but not as pronounced as I would have liked. In terms of focus, I'd rate it a 3/5. It's not the best I've experienced, and nothing compares to the focus I get from caffeine-based pre-workouts. However, for a stimulant-free option, it does keep me fairly engaged in my workouts. I suspect I might have built up a tolerance to stimulant-free pre-workouts, so this could vary for others. Conclusion: Overall, Genius provides a solid performance with good pumps and a moderate energy boost. If you're looking for a stimulant-free pre-workout, it's worth giving this one a try. It may work differently for others, but for me, it has been a decent addition to my workout routine.

Excellent product to take before working out. Great taste, dissolves easily and gives you a little kick start without making you jittery

I'm not the biggest fan of caffeine free pre-workouts, but I had to make a change when my mom made me stop taking high stimulant pre-workouts. Overall, I'd say it's pretty good, especially regarding the simple ingredients. I mixed it with 10fl of water, shook it up, and started drinking it. It easily mixed in with my water, and it tasted pretty good. It's not the taste I would typically hope for, but for having really good ingredients, I'd say it's worth it. It dissolved a LOT better than my old pre-workout and it had a pleasant smell. As of how it works in an actual weightlifting workout, I'd say it performs as expected. It definitely doesn't give the high energy effect of my old pre-workout, but it's a lot better than nothing.

Took a chance on the blue raspberry because there was a sale, the flavor was not good. Tasted more like medicine than a pre-workout.
