Good video but I thought it was really weird that you kept mentioning the fact that none of the products containing caffeine as being a negative when you are literally reviewing non stim pre workouts. If you had a product that was labeled as non stim but had 250mg of caffeine that would be a terrible non stim pre workout even if it was a good regular pre workout. Also packaging shouldn’t play into the score. I think most people would rather have a 4/5 performance product with 1/5 packaging then a 2/5 performance with 5/5 packaging. Consider this when doing reviews.

Gorilla Mode Nitrics price is a lot easier to swallow when you realize it comes with Creatine already so you don’t have to spend another 20-30 bucks on a tub of Creatine

Well are you planning on taking Nitrics every day, if so then that's a waste of product assuming you are not going to train 7 days a week, if you're then good for you. Creatine needs to be taken each and every day even on your off days . So you might want to buy an extra small tub of cheap creatine to use on your off days

I understand where you’re coming from and to be completely honest I am not a fan of the 3 gorilla mind flavors I’ve tried either. However you just have to understand that with gorilla you are getting the highest dosages of ingredients per scoop as compared to other companies/ brands and that’s going to hinder the flavor a lot (and cost more). So if you can put up with it for the couple sips you have to take before your workout then you’ll get the benefits of all the ingredients present. But at the end of the day it’s your choice to choose and find what you like.

There's actually not really such a thing as "pure L-citruline" in pre-workout. Derek talks over this as there's a 2:1 ratio of malic acid to L-citruline. The only thing Derek does on his pre-workout is differentiate them because malic acid and citruline aren't chemically bonded. Manufacturers only combine the totals of citruline and malic acid to make it look more efficacious. Most stim pre-workouts that are decent have 6g because that's 4g of actual L-citruline which is the efficacious dose. Derek and the others add more here because it's a pre-workout that largely helps the pump.
