Truth Nutrition Pre Workout Powder - Natural PreWorkout for Men & Women, Vegan BCAA Amino Energy Powder, Keto Friendly - No Artificial Flavors, Sweetners or Dyes (Orange Tangerine)

I actually like it! It dissolves quickly if you are on the go type person like me....where some powders will clump up in cold water. It’s not thick at all so it goes down smoothly so I rated it a one because for me that is a good thing. The taste is pretty much Sunny D with no sugar. You could get used to it or just eat something slightly sweet (protein bar) as you drink it. Has a little after taste but I have had much worse!!! I bought the pre workout and the Vegan BCAA but looking at the ingredients I don’t need both. I don’t have a burst of jitters but I do feel myself getting motivated to go workout! As for value for money it’s a little pricey where Amino Energy and RAW (other products I’ve tried) give you more for the buck. I stopped those in case you are wondering because RAW has a terrible taste and Amino Energy which I love breaks me out (got Beta alanine in it) So now I am going to the gym to see if it keeps me motivated! My recommendation: try it!

I rarely ever write reviews but after using this product felt compelled to do so. I’ve been conditioning and weight training for over 35 years during which I've tried all types of supplements and am very discerning about what I take and conservative with my praise. This product was recommended to me by a friend whose opinion I value highly regarding supplements and training. I take it as directed before my workout. I purchased the Orange Tangerine which mixed easily with water. If you let it sit be sure to remix it to maintain an even flavor. Speaking of flavor it does not have that after taste you get from artificial sweeteners used to cover up the taste which I personally dislike. Soon after taking it I feel noticeably energized and can say it has a very clear affect on my training. As I have gotten older I have found that I have to shorten my training sessions to maintain the intensity level I require to make gains and not just stay fit. I can mentally push past the wall and get more out but my body is not always able to keep up. If my intensity does not stay high I am really just wasting energy, time, and actually hurting gains. Also as I get older my body takes longer to recover so I can’t train a body part as often if I want that powerful workout I desire. This product has helped with both aspects of my training. I find myself energized at the start and throughout my routine. A significant boost in energy allowing me to complete my workout with full drive keeping a fast pace with high intensity. At any age this would give you the boost you need to push yourself harder. What I did not expect was the improvement in my ability to recover. This in addition to my my protein intake has improved my recuperation time. Not that it matters but want to point out that I am not vegan but feel this is the best pre workout supplement I have taken. What is important is that though I eat properly and get my share of protein I feel that this offers me BCAA’s in just the right amount at the time I need it most to maximize energy and recovery resulting in the greatest gains. So certainly not just for those on a healthy plant based diet. What else does one look for but the best gains from all the hard work we put in. This helps me achieve just that.

Love that this doesn't contain fake sugars and gives great energy for my workouts. HOWEVER...the flavor could use a lot of work. I've tried both the tangerine and lemonade. I first tried Lemonade, which did not taste like lemonade, but it was a tolerable flavor. After finishing the whole thing, I came back to see if the Tangerine flavor had any reviews. I purchased the tangerine flavor when I watched the video of the girl saying it tastes just like fresh squeezed tangerines. Ummmmm....wow was that far off. It tastes nothing like fresh squeezed juice. It's very bitter and honestly is hard to drink. I think it tastes worse than the lemonade. With that said, I'm guessing this is a newer company trying to make better quality products than what exists on the market, so I will watch out for improvements in flavor. I won't give up on it yet! The energy level is good and it doesn't contain a lot of junk like other pre-workouts and that's why I've given it 4 stars. I've also purchase the Truth BCAA's in watermelon, and that flavor is actually pretty good. Can you make the Pre-workouts taste more like your BCAA's?

I have used pre-workout drinks and BCAAs for years, and I am very picky about what I use. I prefer no sucralose or other artificial sweeteners, no dyes or artificial colorants, and I prefer to know the source of the BCAAs. But I also want it to taste great. Only two brands meet my criteria, Gnarly and Truth. And the new formulas of Truth taste better than ever! This Truth pre-workout combines BCAAs with other performance enhancers in a great tasting drink. I purchased the orange-tangerine and it tastes great! It also helps keep my energy levels up through my morning workouts. It is higher in calories than the plain BCAAs, so if I a still in a fasting window (I practice intermittent fasting), I use 1/2 a scoop of this with 1/2 plain Blood Orange BCAAs. Still tastes great and still works! Highly recommended!

I wanted to try a new brand since the one I had been using is not working anymore. I checked out the reviews and people said it tasted good...NOPE! The aftertaste is horrible; for both the Pre and Post workout. I can feel a good boost of energy without jitters though, so thats a plus. I even mixed it with a juice and it did not help the taste. Now, I have to force myself to take it so it does not go to waste.

So, since this product is labeled TRUTH, I'm gonna tell it. I have never written a review on anything before, until now, because I have never felt the need as strongly as I do right now. I am actually SUPER disappointed in the flavors of the Truth products I purchased (tangerine pwo and the watermelon bcaas). I'm also EXTREMELY disappointed in those who wrote reviews for this product, claiming that the flavors were AMAZING and giving the product 5 stars!! I have a lot of questions running through my mind about everyone who posted reviews. One being...do you guys even have taste buds??? The Tangerine flavor is NOT amazing. Not. At. All. I don't mind the subtle, light, tangerine flavor at the beginning. Sadly, the after taste you get tastes just like actual vomit, and I'm not being overly dramatic. I was SO bummed!! I keep trying it different ways, adding more water, less water, ice...my taste buds still keep whincing and crying out "Don't drink anymore! It tastes like throw up!!" My husband actually tried to talk me out of buying this brand because of the lack of reviews and I convinced him to get this one based on the ingredients as well as all the positive reviews! I feel like an idiot for not trusting him! I am a health conscious woman, who is trying hard to find GOOD, CLEAN products to help me perform. It's hard, in the weightlifting/CrossFit industry to find products with CLEAN ingredients and products that aren't loaded with caffeine, sucralose, erythritol, and all the other crap!! I was SO excited when I saw the ingredients for these products. Clean. Simple. GOOD! All the good things you need to feed your muscles and body during intense training. Great job on that end! TRUTH: You guys need to seriously test the flavors out and try again! Maybe create new samples to hand out and get legit feedback from a WIDE variety of people, because the flavors need some help! Hopefully, you guys will take this truthful review to heart and workout the flavor kinks and come out with a "New and Improved" product. I promise, I did not come on here to be a troll. I'm not a mean person. I'm not a trash talker. I just really felt the need to voice what I feel to be the truth about this product.

Before this I used the watermelon BCAAs post workouts and it helped with recovery and muscle soreness. I like it a lot. Once it was empty, I found this pre-workout formula and since it had the same BCAAs but added hydration and caffeine - I gave it a try. I LOVE IT!!!! Its amazing. I put it in a mason jar with water, shake it up and it replaces my morning coffee. The flavor reminds me of Tang. I have so much energy and FOCUS. I have ADD so this is a huge benefit for me. I slay my workouts, have energy to clean up the house and play with my kids, have the ability to focus on planning and excuting work, plus I feel hydrated and my muscles aren't sore. I never want to run out of this stuff!!!

Have tried just about every pre-workout on the market and as I get older, I'm becoming more conscious about what I put in my body. Searched high and low for a pre-workout with quality ingredients that didn't have colors and other junk you see in the more popular pre-workout drinks. This checked all the boxes and having just gone through my first tub, I have to say I'm impressed. As someone with a pretty high caffeine tolerance, I worked up to about a 1.5-scoop serving that is just right. Highly recommend. The orange flavor is a bit sweet, but pretty good.
