Overview

RAW Nutrition CBUM Thavage V2 is the updated version of Chris Bumstead's signature pre-workout, featuring 9g L-citrulline (not citrulline malate), 3.5g beta-alanine, 200mg caffeine, and 100mg Alpha-GPC. The V2 formula increased citrulline from 7g to 9g and added Himalayan pink salt for enhanced pumps. At 200mg caffeine, it sits in the moderate-stim sweet spot — enough for energy without the jitters of 300mg+ formulas. The 40-serving count offers better value than the original 20-serving tub.
