DVST8 Global Pre Workout Review

DVST8 Global is a pre workout supplement from Inspired Nutraceuticals.  Powered by 6 g 3D Pump, 2 g Betaine Nitrate, 1 g L-Tyrosine, 1 g CoLEAN, 325 mg caffeine, DVST8 Global will push you through your workouts, giving you clean energy and focus.

Supp Kingz was kind enough to send over a tub for review.

I tried it twice with the same result both times: incredible pumps and a hyper-focus. I could recommend this for beginners who want a real pre workout with focus and pumps. It could also be a good choice for stim-junkies that are looking to “tone it down” a bit while still getting a good energy boost.

Read on for additional details of my experience, the best prices for the DVST8 Global pre workout, and a breakdown of its ingredient label.

My Experience

I took DVST8 Global two different times, and it was a smooth ride with great pumps and focus.

Effects

The main aspects of this product are the pumps and focus.

The energy comes on smooth and lasts a pleasant 4-5 hours, enough even for my 3-hour full-body workouts and began within just 15 minutes.

The focus on DVST8 was surprisingly good with a dialed-in sense the entire workout and began after maybe 20 minutes and lasted even after my workout.

There was a slight mood elevation after the main focus faded.

The pumps on DVST8 were unparalleled from nearly any other product I’ve ever tried. Combined with the focus, the mind-to-muscle connection was genuinely astonishing.

Flavor

The flavor I tried was “Sonoran Sunset,” which tasted almost like a Sunny D-like orange juice type flavor. It was smooth, sweet, without a bitter or chemical taste. Out of 10, I’d give it an 8.5 or so.

Other flavors include “Black Nebula” (which if it’s like DVST8 of the Union, it’s a Grape-Strawberry flavor) and “Malibu Breeze” (which might be a Pina Colada, Tiger’s Blood, or Tropical Punch type flavor).

Scoop Size

A complete serving is two scoops of 8 grams. One scoop is just under a level scoop.

Ingredients

Below you’ll find the ingredient label for DVST8 Global and a breakdown of each ingredient.

3DPump-Breakthrough – 6,000 mg

3D Pump is a new pump ingredient introduced in late 2020; supposedly, it is a pump enhancer that increases vasodilation (opens up your blood vessels to improve blood flow) and some performance enhancers. It is composed of pure L-Citrulline, Glycerol, and ALMA Extract (Phyllanthus Emblica) (fruit), but as a prop blend. If I had to guess, I’d say it’s 3 g L-Citrulline, 2 g Glycerol, and 1 g ALMA Extract.

From this review on the 3D Pump Breakthrough ingredient by itself, it is supposed to help with the pump, blood flow, workout performance, and hydration.

Being that it’s a new, non-scientifically reviewed ingredient just yet, there’s no discernable dosage for it, but it seems as if 6 g of it is the average dose.

Betaine Nitrate (NO3-T ®) – 2,000 mg

Nitrate (NO₃^–) is a small molecule produced in the body in limited amounts (as a byproduct of nitric oxide). It is obtainable via vegetables, particularly beetroot and other low-calorie tuber vegetables such as turnips and leafy green vegetables such as spinach or rocket.

From Examine, noted benefits of nitrates, in general, are: reduction of blood pressure when the blood pressure is raised, regulatory of blood flow and vasodilation, reducing the oxygen cost of exercise (allowing you to go longer), and is kidney protective.

PeakO2 – 1,000 mg

PeakO2 is a blend of mushrooms, Cordyceps, Shiitake, Reishi, Turkey Tail, King Trumpet, Lion’s Mane.

From Compound Solutions (the creator), potential benefits of PeakO2 are promoting oxygen consumption during exercise, reduction in lactic acid (supporting ATP production), increased time to fatigue (allowing you to exercise for longer, aka more endurance).

In the first seven days of a 21-day study, those subjects taking 4 grams a day had a peak power output increase of 17.6% over baseline.

Like creatine and beta-alanine (179 grams), it has to be “loaded” with a loaded dose of 28 grams. A typical amount is between 1 and 3 grams, putting DVST8 Global at the minimum dosage.

Betaine Anyhdrous – 1,000 mg

Betaine is included to help increase your power output. However, research is pretty inconsistent around this claim. Since the typical range for Betaine is between 1.5 g and upwards of 5 g, the 1 g is underdosed.

L-Tyrosine – 1,000 mg per serving

L-Tyrosine helps “smooth out” some of the harsher effects of stimulants and increases focus. Some limited research also shows it can act as a cognitive booster in stressful environments.

One gram is a substantial dosage and lands within the range recommended for use in an exercise setting.

CoLEAN – 1,000 mg per serving

CoLEAN is a blend of Alpha GPC, choline DL-bitartrate, and citicoline. Together they may boost cognition and maximal power output; research is very minimal. Usually, Alpha GPC is dosed between 300 and 600 mg, Choline DL-bitartrate between 500 and 2,000 mg, and Citicholine between 250 and 500 mg.

Caffeine Anhydrous – 325 mg

The Big Poppa of stimulant supplements is in your coffee, tea, soda, heck; it may even be in your sweets and gum (some confectioners add caffeine to their sweets for a kick). Well known for increasing energy, power, and focus, it’s the staple ingredient in all stim-based products. 325 mg is in the middle of the range you mostly see in pre workout supplements nowadays (usually ranging between 250 and 450).

SYNapsis – 132 mg

SYNapsis is a trademark synephrine with a 30% yield, giving you 39.6 mg of synephrine. Synephrine is a well-researched ingredient that has been shown to aid in weight loss.

“In general, bitter orange extract alone (p-synephrine) or in combination with other herbal ingredients did not produce significant adverse events as an increase in heart rate or blood pressure or alter electrocardiographic data, serum chemistry, blood cell counts, or urinalysis. p-Synephrine alone as well as in combination products were shown to increase resting metabolic rate and energy expenditure, and modest increases in weight loss were observed with bitter orange extract/p-synephrine-containing products when given for six to 12 weeks.”

Synephrine Meta-Analysis

40 mg of synephrine is a suitable dosage for fat-burning effects.

Methylliberine (as Dynamine 40%) – 125 mg  (50 mg yield)

Dynamine combines nicely with caffeine to enhance mood, focus, and energy. Unlike caffeine, Dynamine does not harm heart rate or blood pressure (from the NIH). Per the study, the doses were between 100 and 150 mg per serving, putting the 50 mg at half the minimum dosage.

As this ingredient is 40% Dynamine, the 125 mg dosage amounts to a 50 mg Dynamine yield.

Theobromine – 100 mg per serving

Theobromine is a stimulant that is a “caffeine light” ingredient found in chocolate, some tea plants, and the Kola Nut. Its name means “Food of the Gods,” Greek “theo” meaning gods, and “broma” meaning food. As anyone with a sugar craving, you can sort of understand why.

Most doses range from 100 mg-400 mg, which is at half the lower end of the amount.
