Transparent Labs Pre-Workout
About this item
Transparent Labs makes three pre-workouts we carry here, each 30 servings with every dose on the label. Bulk has 8,000 milligrams of citrulline malate, 4,000 milligrams of beta-alanine, 2,500 milligrams of betaine, 1,300 milligrams of taurine, 1,000 milligrams of L-tyrosine, 300 milligrams of alpha-GPC and 200 milligrams of PurCaf organic caffeine per scoop.
Bulk Black is the higher-stimulant version: the same citrulline, beta-alanine and betaine doses with 2,000 milligrams of L-tyrosine and 325 milligrams of caffeine. LEAN has 6,000 milligrams of citrulline malate, 2,000 milligrams of beta-alanine, 1,500 milligrams of betaine, 1,000 milligrams of acetyl L-carnitine, 500 milligrams of choline and 180 milligrams of caffeine, plus chromium, iodine, selenium and zinc.
Transparent Labs says all three use natural flavors and stevia with no artificial sweeteners or dyes, and lists each as Informed Choice certified. Flavors we carry across the line: Black Cherry, Blue Raspberry, Green Apple, Sour Grape, Strawberry Lemonade and Strawberry Mango, plus Bulk Black in Black Cherry, Sour Gummy and Watermelon Peach. Check the tub for which formula a flavor is.
Transparent Labs suggests starting with half a scoop to assess tolerance. Bulk Black, at 325 milligrams of caffeine, is the strongest of the three. Pick up a tub at Elite Nutrition in Hoover or Vestavia Hills, and ask our team which one fits your training.
