Overview

Nutricost Pre-Workout Complex provides 6g L-citrulline, 3.2g beta-alanine (clinical dose), 2.5g betaine, 1g taurine, and 200mg caffeine per serving with a fully transparent label — no proprietary blends. At under $28 for 30 servings, this offers clinical-dose ingredients at roughly half the price of premium brands like Transparent Labs or Legion. The 200mg caffeine provides moderate energy without the excessive stimulation of 300mg+ products. Nutricost's approach is simple: clinical doses, transparent labels, and budget pricing.
