How It Works
Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Pre-Workout relies on a synergy of performance-proven active ingredients. Natural caffeine triggers central nervous system alertness, providing sustained energy without jittery side effects. CarnoSyn® Beta-Alanine increases muscle carnosine levels, allowing your muscle fibers to fight off acidity during intense, high-repetition sets.
Simultaneously, Micronized L-Citrulline drives nutrient-rich blood flow straight to working muscles, while Creapure® Creatine Monohydrate fuels cellular energy reserves (ATP). This combination ensures you can push harder, lift heavier, and maintain peak athletic output from your first rep to your last.

My favorite Pre-Workout
Link to this reviewThis was my first ever pre workout. I brought it in the green apple flavour as it seemed to be well liked compared to the others. I’ve now finished the container. I first tried one scoop and it didn’t really do anything for me so have to have two scoops. With two scoops I do feel like I can push myself a lot more with cardio, I do get the tingles which last probably 1/4 of the way into my workout and at first I was like what’s wrong with me but I don’t mind it too much. I like it but am trying something different to see what it’s like compared to this one as it’s the first one I’ve tried.
Link to this reviewFirst preworkout I’ve tried where the taste doesn’t make me gag. I got green apple.
Link to this reviewMy go to for pre wokouts. All flavors taste OK. Great energy when working out and doesn't spin you out.
Link to this reviewGold Standard pre workout packs a hell of a punch! If you're feeling sluggish before a workout, get this in ya! Watermelon is my favourite by far!
Link to this reviewThis is now my new favorite pre-workout. Before it was always curse for me but I was finding with the 'blood flow enhancers' that they were using that I would start to get light headed in the top reps of heavy lifts. Have only tried green apple and it taste amazing, like a green apple chuppa-chup. Had 20 minutes before workout and was ready to go with a decent kick up the ass but no tingles or edginess. Will defiantly be buying again!
Link to this reviewI tried the fruit punch flavor - don't like the taste at all. That being said, it does give me a huge energy boost during my workout and keeps me going and going. I like ON and would recommend it but not fruit punch flavor. Yet to try there other flavors.
Link to this reviewGot the pineapple which was quite tasty but the effects were quite average. Maybe it's cause it is under-dosed with a lot of the ingredients so 2 scooping is required.
Link to this reviewI have tried the green apple, I like this flavour because it isn't too sweet like other pre-workouts. This pre-work out gets me going but it doesn't give me sustained boost or focus like others have. However, I didn't get any nasty tingles or shakes from this stuff either.
