Are you ready for a little Roidrage? Let’s be glad that this isn’t Trenrage! Androgen Factory takes your workout to the limit with the intense stimulation of Ephedra, Geranium Extract, Eria Jarensis, and Yohimbine.

Pre-workout supplements are excellent products that can help give you the energy and mental focus to complete successful workouts. However, one aspect of pre-workouts that is sometimes neglected is how they taste.

In this piece, we’ll be discussing the best-tasting pre-workout supplements so that taking your pre-workout becomes less of a chore and more of a treat.

Death Punch by Dark Lab is a high stimulant pre-workout advertised as providing extreme energy and a sense of euphoria. It contains Ephedra Extract, GW501516, and 75 mg of DMAA, making it a unique product in today’s supplement market.

I recommend this product to anyone looking to supplement a calorie-restricted diet and experience long-lasting energy. Due to the ingredients in this product, I would not recommend it to those competing in natural and drug-tested sports, as it contains banned ingredients.

If a pre-workout with 500 mg of caffeine isn’t enough, then what is?

Obviously a pre-workout with 600 mg of caffeine.
