Experience intense muscle pumps, improved strength, lasting endurance, and a psychotropic rush that lifts your mood, focus, and drive for hours on end without jitters or the dreaded post-workout crash. Like all of our pre-workout formulas, BULK BLACK contains absolutely no artificial sweeteners, flavors, food dyes, or added sugars. This is as “clean” as a clean pre-workout gets.

Citrulline Malate 2:1 | 8,000mg

From a performance standpoint, citrulline malate is the “star child” of pre-workout science. We chose citrulline malate over L-arginine because it provides better absorption, higher plasma arginine levels, and has been found to:

• Improve strength, aerobic performance, and muscle endurance [1,2]
• Be at least twice as effective as L-arginine supplementation at raising nitric oxide [3]
• Participate in the Krebs Cycle and enhance creatine re-activation between sets (malate in citrulline malate [4]
• Enhance the use of branch chain amino acids like leucine during exercise [5]

PreSeries BULK BLACK contains 8,000 mg (8 grams) of citrulline malate per serving.

Beta-Alanine | 4,000mg

Supplementing with beta-alanine has been proven to increase cellular carnosine levels, which are quickly depleted during intense exercise [6, 7].

A majority of pre-workout supplements contain beta-alanine, but at significantly underdosed levels. Supplementing with proper dosing, as found in PreSeries BULK, is shown to:

• Delay the onset of neuromuscular fatigue in men and women during intense exercise [8]
• Increase overall muscle strength [9]
• Improved muscle endurance and total work done [10]
• Provide a tingling sensation, which can be more aggressive (depending on tolerance), which  is normal and safe [11]
• Reduce and combat the formation of altered proteins and promote the formation of healthy proteins [12]
• Significantly increase lean mass and decrease fat in wrestlers [13]

PreSeries BULK BLACK contains 4,000 mg (4 grams) of beta-alanine per serving.

BetaPure Betaine Anhydrous | 2,500mg

Recent clinical studies suggest that betaine supplementation triggers a significant muscle growth response. This response is independent of testosterone and is significantly advantageous alongside typical supplementation protocols.

Betaine supplementation has also been shown to:

• Reduce fatigue when taken before and during weight training [14, 15].
• Enhance phosphocreatine replenishment between sets when creatine is taken daily [16]*.
• Increases total repetitions and volume on the bench press exercise versus placebo [17].

PreSeries BULK BLACK contains 2,500 mg of betaine anhydrous per serving.

*(PreSeries BULK does not contain any form of creatine, as caffeine negates its absorption when taken in synchrony)

Taurine | 1,300mg

Taurine is an amino acid that is essential to pre-workout supplementation. Taurine competitively interacts with beta-alanine; thus, supplementation with beta-alanine and without taurine can lead to states of taurine deficiency [18].

Additionally, taurine used alongside BCAAs, has been found to reduce next-day muscle soreness more than either taken independently [19]. 

PreSeries BULK BLACK contains 1,300 mg (1.3 grams) of Taurine per serving.

L-Tyrosine | 1,000mg

L-tyrosine is the acetylated version of the amino acid L-tyrosine. The acetylation improves the absorption and effective period of L-tyrosine, as well as optimizes the effectiveness of the energy and focus ingredients in PreSeries BULK.

• L-tyrosine reduces the effects of stress and allows for greater mental focus and endurance [20].
• L-tyrosine improves memory and performance in bodily stressing climates, such as the cold [21].
• Believed to counteract the hypothyroid promoting conditions associated with extensive exercise.

PreSeries BULK BLACK contains 1000 mg of L-tyrosine per serving.

AlphaSize Alpha-GPC | 300mg

AlphaSize® is a patented form of alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine (GPC), a highly bioavailable source of choline. Choline is an essential B vitamin that the body uses to create acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine, both of which play important roles in cognitive function and neurotransmission. Several human studies show that alpha-GPC increases mental performance and physical performance, especially when taken in conjunction with caffeine , . Hence, alpha-GPC has both nootropic and ergogenic properties, making it ideal as a pre-workout ingredient.

PreSeries BULK BLACK contains 300 mg of Choline Bitartrate per serving.

Caffeine Anhydrous 275mg

Caffeine, along with many of the complementing focus-enhancing ingredients in PreSeries BULK BLACK are clinically proven to reduce perceived effort when training. A dose of 2 to 4 mg of caffeine per kg of bodyweight has been shown to significantly increase repetitions to failure and readiness to invest effort in athletes [30, 31].

PreSeries BULK BLACK contains 275 mg of Caffeine Anhydrous per serving.

How To Use

Take one half (½) scoop, mixed with 8-10 ounces of water 20-30 minutes before training to determine tolerance. If increased intensity is desired, take one (1) level scoop mixed with 10-12 ounces of water 20-30 minutes before training. Do not exceed 2 scoops per day.
