Fitness enthusiasts know that nutrition goes hand-in-hand with training, but after you’ve counted all your protein, creatine, and macros for the day — did you remember your veggies? Jocko Greens is a dietary supplement that gives you a greens blend of natural fruits, veggies, antioxidants, adaptogens, and probiotics. Even though there’s not a lot of research supporting the efficacy of even the best greens powders, they can certainly provide a solid supplement on those days and weekends when you just aren’t getting an apple a day.

As a certified nutrition coach, I like greens powders for busy clients whose micronutrient intake is lacking (as a stopgap, of course, not a long-term solution). For this Jocko Greens review, the team at BarBend put the powder through our supplement testing methodology to deliver our honest review. Our testers are torn about the taste of Jocko Greens (we have like, and we have dislike), but we agree that this powder has great solubility and love that it lacks artificial sweeteners. I’ll give you all the details below.

Main Takeaways

Jocko Greens, by Jocko Fuel, offers a greens supplement packed with organic greens, fruits, superfoods, adaptogens (ashwagandha, anyone?), and probiotics.

There are no added sugars or artificial sweeteners, but our testers are majorly split on the Peach flavor, so it might be a bit of a toss-up as to whether you’ll enjoy it or not.

Though the product is made in a cGMP-compliant facility, there’s not third-party testing information readily available, which our product tester (also a certified nutrition coach) doesn’t love.

Jocko Greens Specs

As a certified nutrition coach, I’ve got to get this part out of the way: greens powders do not replace eating real, whole foods, which have more and varied nutrients than you can get in a powder. So eat some actual fruits and veggies, OK? OK.

That said, Jocko Greens by Jocko Fuel does pack quite a punch. It’s not quite as long of an ingredients list as others — say, AG1 — but it’s got both greens and red blends along with probiotics and even adaptogens. 

A scoop of Jocko Greens with the container

What adaptogens, you ask? Jocko Greens contains ashwagandha, milk thistle, and rhodiola. These are advertised to increase your energy, and ashwagandha is often taken to promote relaxation. Adaptogens are essentially substances that help your body return to homeostasis from what you’re lacking — so if you’re tired, they could help you feel more alert. If stress levels are too high, they may help bring them down. (1)

Jocko Greens has 11 billion CFU of probiotics, which help balance gut bacteria and can boost digestive health. They’re a good addition to this product, where you’re ingesting many raw ingredients at once. (2)

Overall, registered dietitian Chelsea Rae Bourgeois likes the relative transparency of the product’s ingredients list: “While I’m usually wary of greens powders, I appreciate that Jocko is transparent with their ingredient blends. They include the amount of each ingredient in their blends, giving customers a clear picture of what they’re buying. I also appreciate that it’s free from added sugars.”

This greens supplement has two flavors and (as Bourgeois points out) no added sugars or artificial sweeteners. Each serving has 30 calories, 6 grams of carbs, 1 gram of fiber. It doesn’t have as many micronutrients as it could — more on that soon.

Jocko Fuel states that they produce their supps in cGMP-compliant facilities with FDA-licensed manufacturers (though, of course, supplements aren’t regulated by the FDA). However, there isn’t concrete testing info on their website.

Who Should Use / Who Shouldn’t Use Jocko Greens

Plenty of greens powders are on the market, but each individual has different preferences for what they look for in a supplement. Here are two camps of folks who may or may not enjoy Jocko Greens — check to see where you fall.

Recommended for:

Those who want clear ingredients from whole foods instead of proprietary blends

People who don’t mind a sweet taste

People who want adaptogens and probiotics in their greens supplement

Not Recommended for:

People who want more gut health benefits from prebiotics and digestive enzymes

Those who can reach their fruits and veggies intake through whole foods alone

People who prefer a more earthy or unflavored taste

Our Experience Using Jocko Greens

Whether you’re a busy parent or work long hours that leave you limited time to chop veggies, greens powders can come in clutch. Our expert testers (one of whom is a certified nutrition coach, like me) tried it to let us know how it tastes and mixes, and they’ve got ratings for you on a scale of 1 (meh) to 5 (hooray). I’ll also rate the ingredients and formulation against their research, price, and safety. 

Ingredients and Formulation

Let’s go through the ingredients and highlight some of the standouts. But first, an acknowledgment of something that doesn’t stand out all that much — the depth of the ingredients list. We appreciate that it’s all organic and that the amounts of what’s in the blend are listed clearly. But registered dietitian Chelsea Rae Bourgeois isn’t terribly impressed with the overall formula:

“Jocko Greens Powder seems pretty standard when it comes to greens powders. It includes a few impressive ingredients in small amounts, but the nutrition facts are a little underwhelming. Other than its macronutrients, Jocko Greens Powder only provides the nutrition facts for potassium, sodium, iron, and calcium provided in the product. Each serving provides 18 percent of the Daily Value for iron and just 2-4% for the remaining nutrients. There are many other more cost-effective and enjoyable ways to get these nutrients (and in higher amounts) through whole foods.” Overall, Bourgeois rates the formula a 2.5 out of 5.

Supplement Facts label on a container of Jocko Greens

Now to what it does have:

Jocko Greens contains 5,400 milligrams of an organic vegetable blend made up of (all organic) organic spirulina, wheat grass, kale, spinach, beets, sweet potato, broccoli sprout, chlorella, oat grass, cabbage, and carrots.

Spirulina (blue-green algae) is a superfood that has strong antioxidant properties. Wheatgrass is a grass that also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Chlorella is another type of antioxidant-rich algae high in iron. The rest are recognizable vegetables, some of them “superfoods” with high levels of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. (3)(4)(5)

Next, they have 3,600 milligrams of an organic fruit blend of (all organic) banana powder, pineapple, apple powder, grape, goji, pomegranate, açaí powder, wild blueberry, and cranberry fruit extract.

It’s also got adaptogens like ashwagandha and milk thistle extract, as well as a blend of 11 strains of probiotics. Among all this, there are no extra additives — just fermented cane sugar and natural sweetener monk fruit extract.

Taste

The taste of Jocko Greens Peach flavor is divisive among customers generally and even between our testers (no bad blood to report here, though). 

Taste is a personal opinion, and one of our expert testers holds nothing back. They say: “I feel so bad saying this, but the Peach flavor is just not something I can drink all the way through. I hate wasting food — or supplements, as it were — but I always have to dump this out halfway through drinking it. It’s just too overpowering. You can tell that they’re trying to mask the earthy, leafy flavors— but it’s way too much overcompensation for me.”

Rating-wise, they say, “Unfortunately, it gets a 2 out of 5 in taste for me.”

On the other hand, certified nutrition coach, personal trainer, and BarBend editorial team member Alex Polish likes the Peach flavor. “I know it’s not everyone’s favorite, but for me, the flavor’s pretty good,” they say. “I think I’m sensitive to artificial sweeteners (they’re usually way too strong for me), so this one tastes a lot more mild than most greens powders for me. And, I do get the Peach flavor, which is also unusual (for me, most powders taste generically sweet rather than like whatever they’re advertising). So, an impressive 4 out of 5 for me.”

Solubility

Fortunately, there’s one thing that’s not controversial about this powder — the mixability. Both of our testers agree that it mixes well. One of our experts explains: “The good thing here is that it mixes right up with a shaker, or even through stirring it in a glass. It does settle a bit at the bottom if you leave it out, but a quick shake or stir before each drink should take care of that easily.” 

Polish agrees, saying: “This mixes like many other greens powders I’ve tried — pretty well. I use a shaker cup and it just takes a few strong shakes. If you’re taking your time drinking it and letting it sit instead of just downing it, I’d recommend giving it an extra shake before each sip. It gets a 4 out of 5 for solubility for me.”

Price Per Serving

How doable is it to drink the stuff every day? Let’s look at the price per serving. One tub of Jocko Greens costs $49.99 and contains 30 servings, costing $1.66 per serving. They also offer a subscription for $44.99, making each serving $1.50.

Side label on a container of Jocko Greens

It is a moderate price, especially compared to some of its competitors. I like the subscription option, too, making it even more affordable for daily use. I’ll go with a 3 out of 5, docking an extra point considering that RD Bourgeois points out that the micronutrient levels granted by this powder might be cheaper to get from whole foods.

Third-Party Testing

The FDA does not regulate or approve dietary supplements for them to be sold. That’s why we like products that have a third-party lab test and verify that what you see on the label is what you get. For supplements like the best pre-workout supplements, it is important to check for banned ingredients. For something like a greens powder, it would be helpful to know they’re clear from lead or other contaminants.

Here’s where things get confusing. The Jocko Fuel website states they do third-party testing, but no information is available on where or what lab has verified their statements. They say their products and ingredients come from from cGMP and FDA-licensed manufacturers, which is great. 

They also state that a third-party lab verified each of these ingredients before making their supplements, which is great. Knowing the lab’s name and the report results would be better since it’s something other companies do. I’ll give it a 3 out of 5 for the facilities used in production. 

What to Consider Before Buying Jocko Greens

The best fruit and vegetable supplements have one thing in common — real, clear ingredients, which is somewhat comparable to eating whole foods. Jocko Greens is one of these, but you’ll want to consider a few other factors beyond ingredients. 

Jocko Greens with a shaker cup

Side effects are also something to look out for and are a risk with any supplement. Consuming so many raw vegetables in powder form can also cause bloating. Our expert tester cautions, “I wouldn’t advise taking this on an empty stomach. It’s not bad, but I’ve gotten a bit of a stomachache when I had this and nothing else in my system.” We’ve tested over 40 greens powders; here’s our scoop on Jocko Greens.

Proprietary Blends: Jocko Greens does not use proprietary blends; instead, they list each organic ingredient in their fruits and veggies blend.

Controversial Taste: Jock Greens comes in two flavors and uses the natural sweetener monk fruit. One of our testers enjoys the peachiness of the Peach flavor, while our other tester can’t stand it. Oof.

Digestive Health: Jocko Greens contains 9 billion CFUs of probiotics, spanning 11 strains. That’s great in the long run, but in the short-term, it may not agree with your stomach — one of our testers got a bit of a stomach ache when having this on an empty stomach.

Price: One tub of Jocko Greens costs $49.99; for 30 servings, it is $1.66 per serving. They also offer a subscription for $44.99, making each serving $1.50.

Jocko Greens Vs. Competitors

We know you’re waiting for more information on the most popular greens supplement, Athletic Greens, so we’re stacking Jocko Greens right next to it, along with a third company so that you can get a side-by-side view of high-level specs.

Read our full Athletic Greens Review.

We had to choose Athletic Greens because it is so popular, and for good reason. It is NSF-certified for sport, and clinical research has even been done on it. We’re also including Vibrant Greens because although it’s less popular, it’s also a solid brand with good reviews and has a similar cost to Jocko Greens.

Both Athletic Greens and Vibrant Greens offer more ingredients than Jocko Greens. They both have digestive enzymes and generally more greens and superfoods. Of these three, only AG1 is NSF Certified for sport. The most significant difference is the price — Athletic Greens is the highest (coming in at an 11 on a 1 to 10 scale of expensiveness, to be honest), and our other two are more comparable.

Reviews are mixed on the flavor; some say it is too sweet, and others say it has a great taste. Others are mixed on whether it is worth the cost.

Our Final Verdict on Jocko Greens

Even when you eat a healthy diet and take the best multivitamins, sometimes a greens supplement helps you take things to the next level. Jocko Greens is a more budget-friendly option than Athletic Greens, giving you a clear list of organic fruits and veggies. 

The fact that our tester could not even finish their sample because of the taste is a huge red flag for sensitive folks. If you can chug it down, you’ll reap the health benefits from the antioxidants, adaptogens, and probiotics.

The best home gym equipment tends to have one thing in common — it eats up floor space. Freak Athlete stands out amongst the competition by combining multiple machines into one, helping to maximize your square footage while also saving you some cash. 

Compared to many of its competitors, Freak Athlete’s gear is pretty budget-friendly, but they also offer year-round discounts and holiday sales. If you’re looking for the biggest bang for your buck, we’ve rounded up the best Freak Athlete discount codes that can help you stretch your dollar that much more. Check out the top ways to save on some of our experts’ favorite versatile machines.

How to Find Freak Athlete Discount Codes (2024)

Freak Athlete’s unique designs combine the functionality of several machines into one, opening up many of the best lower-body exercises, like leg curls and hyperextensions. Not only can they save space in your garage gym, but also in your budget. If those savings aren’t enough on their own, here are some more ways to save on Freak Athlete essentials.

1. Freak Athlete Bundle & Save

Freak Athlete’s flagship product, the Hyper Pro, starts at $999.99, but to get the most out of this versatile machine, you’ll want to add the Leg Developer ($350), GHD ($220), and Upper Body ($30) attachments. Purchasing everything separately would cost you roughly $1,599.99, but if you go all in and bundle these four products, Freak Athlete knocks off $300.

With just the base Hyper Pro, you can perform movements like back extensions, decline sit-ups, or hip thrusts. You’ll need to supply the weight plates, but adding on the Leg Developer allows for leg extensions and hamstring curls. When you get the Upper Body Kit, you can use the weight sleeve on Leg Developer to take on six movements, including biceps curls and seated rows. The GHD attachment opens up even more lower body and back exercises, like GHD sit-ups, glute ham raises, and reverse hypers.

2. Freak Athlete 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee

Whether you invest in the Hyper Pro, Wheelbarrow Sled, or an attachment, you’ll have 30 days to request a return — no questions asked. To initiate a return, you just have to reach out to suppot@freakathlete.com and they’ll take it from there.

3. Freak Athlete Email Newsletter

When you sign up for Freak Athlete’s email newsletter, you can save up to $300 on the Hyper Pro. And you can unsubscribe to those emails at any time.

When Do Freak Athlete Products Go On Sale?

While you can bundle and save or get your email newsletter discount year-round, Freak Athlete usually offers big savings around the holidays. Keep an eye out for BarBend’s holiday sales pages to take advantage of these big markdowns.

Our Favorite Freak Athlete Products

From the Hyper Pro and Nordic Mini Pro to the Freak Athlete leg developer, the brand’s lineup of machines and attachments can help you perform a full range of movements. Here are just a few of our favorite products from Freak Athlete.

Freak Athlete Hyper Pro

Freak Athlete’s marquee product, the Hyper Pro, combines multiple strength machines into one versatile piece of equipment. The base model can handle movements like Nordic curls, back extensions, hip thrusts, and more, but you can extend its capability even further with a few attachments. Here’s what each of the three add-ons can provide.

Leg Developer: Leg extension, hamstring curl, upper body exercise

GHD: Glute ham raise, reverse hyper, GHD sit-up

Upper Body Kit: Seated row, face pull, skullcrusher, biceps curl, woodchop, standing row

While we haven’t had the chance to test the Hyper Pro, we do have experience with its predecessor, the Nordic Hyper GHD. You’d need to squint to see much difference between the two, but Freak Athlete says the Hyper Pro’s base is redesigned for improved stability — plus, the GHD attachment is larger. “For all it can do, I thought it was surprisingly lightweight,” our tester said after sweating on the Nordic Hyper GHD. “It’s super easy to just lift and store vertically.”

Freak Athlete Wheelbarrow Sled

The unique build of Freak Athlete’s Wheelbarrow Sled helps you target specific muscle groups, like your quads, glutes, and hamstrings. Whether you choose to fold the wheel down to roll the sled or slide it on the plastic-bottom skis, this two-in-one piece of equipment can handle up to 500 pounds of plates. Its $400 price tag is a bit high, but it’s easily one of the best weight sleds out there.

Why Choose Freak Athlete

Freak Athlete was founded in 2022 and by the time they launched the Nordic Hyper GHD machine, they were on their way to becoming one of the fitness world’s hottest new brands. They have since released expansions like the leg developer attachment and partnered with athletes fitness experts to grow even further. 

Unlike traditional barbells or dumbbells, their products work to combine the functionality of multiple strength machines. For those who can’t devote a ton of floor space to their at-home training, the adjustable and versatile design of their flagship machine can help make the most of their space and budgets. Rogue, Shogun, and Tib Bar Guy also offer Nordic benches, but the utility of Freak Athlete’s Nordic Hyper GHD and Hyper Pro make them standouts in this space.

When you need a massive energy boost for the gym beyond your cup of coffee, you want a pre-workout supplement with research-backed ingredients for performance — plus caffeine. Total War Pre-Workout fits the bill, though it’s a steep place to start for newbies. Then again, many of the best pre-workout supplements are. 

Our expert tester for this, BarBend fitness writer Ben Emminger, has got a whole lot of experience with pre-workouts. He’s used many a supplement over his training career, and our overall team has tested a combined 110-plus pre-workouts using our supplement testing methodology to rate each product. In this Total War Pre-Workout review, we’ll give you all the details — all told, combining Emminger’s experience with my own as a certified nutrition coach, we think Total War is a fabulous energy boost with no crash (if you’re used to caffeine), but you may have to contend with scattered focus and a whole lot of tingles. Here’s what you need to know.

Medical disclaimer: The content on BarBend is meant to be informative in nature, but it should not be taken as medical advice. The opinions and articles on this site are not intended for use as diagnosis, prevention, and/or treatment of health problems. It’s always a good idea to talk to your doctor before beginning a new fitness, nutritional, and/or supplement routine. Individual needs for vitamins and minerals will vary.

Main Takeaways

According to our expert tester, Redcon1 Total War Pre-Workout’s 320 milligrams of caffeine will give you a big kick of energy, but may scatter your focus — it’s best suited for experienced pre-workout users and caffeine lovers.  

The 3.2 grams of beta-alanine is within the clinical dosing recommendations and left our tester with a sustained burst of the tingles.  

Total War Pre-Workout comes in 25 creative, fruity flavors and uses artificial sweeteners.

Redcon1 products are third-party tested and manufactured in a GMP-certified factory.

Total War Pre-Workout Specs

Total War Pre-Workout comes from supplement company Redcon1. They state that they were the first company to pioneer listing out ingredients and moving away from proprietary blends. It is a great move that helps consumers know exactly what they’re getting, as proprietary blends obscure how much of which ingredients you’re getting. There’s no such ambiguity here, which is great.

In this case, you’re getting 320 milligrams of caffeine — 250 milligrams from caffeine anhydrous and 70 milligrams from di-caffeine malate. Di-caffeine malate may have a slower release, so it doesn’t all hit at once (which could trigger side effects), it may last longer, and you may not have a hard crash. 

A single scoop of REDCON1 Total War Pre-Workout

According to registered dietitian Chelsea Rae Bourgeois, one of our expert reviewers, that amount of caffeine can be a blessing or a curse for you: “Each serving contains around the same amount of caffeine as three cups of coffee — a less-than-ideal dose for those sensitive to caffeine jitters or the dreaded caffeine crash.” But if you’re used to a lot of caffeine, you might experience no crash at all. This is a very know-thine-own-body type of situation.

Beyond caffeine, Total War Pre-Workout also contains hefty dosages of nitric oxide boosters (L-citrulline or citrulline malate, green tea extract, and juniper berry for blood flow and pumps), beta-alanine (for less fatigue and more muscular endurance), and taurine (which has mixed research on cognitive enhancement). (1)(2)(3) It also contains theobromine from cacao, which may work with caffeine for energy. (4)

Total War Pre-Workout comes in 25 flavors and uses the artificial sweeteners sucralose and acesulfame potassium. It costs $1.43 per serving, which is a moderate price. They state that they do third-party testing, but they are not NSF-Certified for Sport. With 0 calories, this supp could also work as one of the best pre-workouts for weight loss.

How does all that come together? According to our expert tester and BarBend fitness writer Ben Emminger, very well. He explains: “Overall, I’d rate this pre-workout at 4 out of 5. The flavor is enjoyable, the energy is very-much present, and I appreciate that there isn’t a heavy crash post-training. The beta-alanine-induced tingles may be overwhelming for some, but I don’t believe they’re overwhelming enough to forgo this formulation.”

Who Should Use / Who Shouldn’t Use Total War Pre-Workout

At 320 milligrams of caffeine per scoop of Total War Pre-Workout, this is a high-stim supplement. Those who prefer to skip the stims can check out some of the best non-stim pre-workouts. For everyone else, here’s which side you may find yourself on.

Recommended for:

People who want caffeine as the only stimulant

Experienced pre-workout users seeking a big energy boost

People who don’t mind a slight artificial sweetener taste

Not Recommended for:

Pre-workout newbies or people with a low caffeine tolerance

Competitive athletes who want an NSF-Certified for Sport supplement

Creatine users who want an all-in-one pre-workout supplement

Our Experience Using Total War Pre-Workout

Part of our rating process at BarBend is having our expert testers sample the products before their workouts. Our expert tester here, Ben Emminger, took Total War Pre-Workout out for several spins and rated his experiences out of a scale of 1 (womp womp) to 5 (fabulous). As a certified nutrition coach, I’ll also weigh in alongside registered dietitian Chelsea Rae Bourgeois on important factors like ingredients and formulation, dosages, price, and safety.

Ingredients and Formulation

Total War Pre-Workout has a solid mix of standard pre-workout ingredients — caffeine, nitric oxide boosters, beta-alanine, taurine, and other amino acids and substances like theobromine. Here’s how RD Bourgeois breaks it down: “Total War Pre-Workout hits all the essentials with its ingredients list. Together the ingredients can support energy, focus, muscle pump, and endurance.”

Supplement Facts label on a tub of REDCON1 Total War Pre-Workout

There are 320 milligrams of caffeine, and research suggests 3 to 6 milligrams per kilogram of body weight. (5) You’ll also get 6 grams of L-citrulline, which is under where Bourgeois would like it to be, but she says “the hefty dose of BioPerine has been linked to enhanced metabolism and increased bioavailability of several nutrients.” (6) You get 3.2 grams of beta-alanine; the recommended range is 4 to 6. (7) For taurine, you get 1 gram, which is the minimum recommendation. (8)

[Related: Ultimate Guide to Pre-Workouts]

You also get some extra “natural” ingredients like the fruits juniper berry and naringin, BioPerine (black pepper extract) for citrulline absorption, and green tea extract, which goes with the nitric oxide boosters. There is also 1 gram of agmatine sulfate, a form of arginine, which goes toward nitric oxide boosting, as well. (9)

Overall, Bourgeois gives the formula a 4 out of 5, a pretty solid standard.

Taste

You’ve got 25 flavors to choose from — but how do they really taste? Emminger, who’s taken this pre-workout for a spin several strength training sessions and a weekend run, puts it this way: “I sampled the ‘Vice City’ formulation, which is a Strawberry Piña Colada flavor. It was definitely true to flavor, although I feel the Piña Colada came through more than the Strawberry.”

Emminger rates the taste a 4 out of 5, saying: “It’s definitely sweet and enjoyable. It gave me images of lounging around the pool on a hot summer day. While Piña Colada isn’t my favorite flavor of choice, I wouldn’t mind having this on a regular basis.”

Solubility

In the quest to avoid clumpy pre-workout or a mouth full of chalk at the bottom of your drink, we had Emminger, weigh in on solubility. He reports that you’ll find typical pre-workout “behavior” from this powder: “This blended easily with water. I didn’t experience any unwanted clumps. However, there is some residue at the bottom of your cup, so I’d recommend a quick wash-out and sip to ensure you’re getting the full dose before training.”

Is it annoying to have to do a rinse to get the full dose? Sure, but if you’ve used pre-workout even half as much as we have, you’ll know it’s not unusual. “Yes, a wash-out is necessary, but this isn’t a unique experience for me — at least, from what I’ve experienced with pre-workout supplements.”

At the end of the day (erm…workout?), Emminger rates solubility a 4 out of 5.

Effects

Even if you have a high caffeine tolerance, you may want to strap in for this one. “This was more of an energy-boosting formulation than a focus booster,” Emminger says. “In all honesty, I feel like the present tingles left me somewhat scatter-brained. I’d recommend this pre-workout for evening sessions where you’re more energy-depleted yet aren’t particularly focused on future tasks or chores. You can come home and immediately relax or head to bed.”

Getting ready to make a serving of REDCON1 Total War Pre-Workout

At 320 milligrams of caffeine per serving, we admit that not everyone will be able to drop to sleep after this formula. While Emminger recommends this as a nighttime pre-workout for those with a high tolerance, we might also suggest it as a morning workout if this is going to be the strongest pre-workout you’ve taken in your journey so far.

But if you’ve got a good caffeine tolerance, Emminger reports that more good news is on the way: “Surprisingly, I didn’t experience a harsh crash post-training. I was able to smoothly come down without that dragging sensation I’ve had with other high-stim pre-workouts.”

He also notes a unique element in the beta-alanine presence. “The tingles do come, but they’re more of a slow, sustained burn than a quick hit post-consumption. I began to feel them a few minutes after downing my final sip. From there, I could feel the beta-alanine moving down my body, beginning at my lips and ears, then moving into my fingers, calves, and finally toes.”

Emminger admits to generally enjoying the classic pre-workout tingles — one of the most well-known side effects of pre-workout — but if even he was noticing them consistently, this might not be your top choice if you’d prefer to stay away from the itchies. Instead, you might want to look into one of the best pre-workouts without beta-alanine.

Price Per Serving

One tub of Total War Pre-Workout costs $42.99, and you get 30 servings, so it’s $1.43 per serving. On Amazon, the prices vary per flavor, ranging from $27 to $33, so you could get one for under $1 per serving. The brand’s price is not bad, and the Amazon option makes it even better. I’ll rate it a 4 out of 5.

Third-Party Testing

The FDA does not regulate dietary supplements, including pre-workouts, which means there is no guarantee that all ingredients are listed (including banned substances). 

We like brands with third-party testing and verification that the label is accurate and the ingredients are safe. 

Redcon1 states that they manufacture their products in GMP-certified factories, which means manufacturing is done “utilizing industry best practices.” (10) They also say that their products are “third-party tested with ABC for ingredient level verification, heavy metals, prop 65 compliance.” However, they don’t post a report from ABC, and it is not NSF Certified for Sport.

They do provide information and have the GMP stamp, so I’ll go with a 4.5 out of 5.

What To Consider Before Buying Total War Pre-Workout

Before buying Redcon1 Total War Pre-Workout, consider some top-level specs. If you’re into stim pre-workouts, what kind and how much is in it? The same goes for creatine. Then, you’ll want to consider price, other ingredients, and types of sweeteners, plus safety. Let’s not forget potential pre-workout side effects — the caffeine and beta-alanine may trigger jitters and tingles.

Blending REDCON1 Total War Pre-Workout

Stimulants: There are 320 milligrams of caffeine, 250 milligrams of caffeine anhydrous, and 70 milligrams of slow-release caffeine from di-caffeine malate. That is not a small amount. And while beta-alanine isn’t a stimulant, it can have a big (itchy) impact on your body. According to registered dietitian Chelsea Rae Bourgeois, “If you tend to get itchy with beta-alanine supplements, you could be uncomfortable from multiple angles with this pre-workout.”

Price: One tub of Total War Pre-Workout costs $42.99; you get 30 servings, so it’s $1.43 per serving.

Sweeteners: Total War Pre-Workout contains the artificial sweeteners sucralose and acesulfame potassium. Sucralose might not agree with your stomach.

Third-Party Testing: Redcon1 is third-party tested, though the results are not readily available online.

Total War Pre-Workout Vs. Competitors

If you’re a nerd for fitness products, you may have found yourself here because you are not only considered Total War Pre-Workout but several other options, too. In the following table, we’ll make it a bit easier for you to compare the high-level considerations between Total War Pre-Workout and two of its competitors.

We chose Jacked Factory Nitrosurge and Legion Pulse because they are reputable brands and offer similar ingredients (and thus, effects) as Total War Pre-Workout. 

The price varies — Legion Pulse is significantly more expensive than both, while Jacked Factory Nitrosurge is drastically cheaper. Jacked Factory also has the least caffeine, while the other two are similar. Sweetener-wise, Legion uses the natural sweetener Stevia and sugar alcohol erythritol, while the other two use artificial sweeteners.

Our Final Verdict on Total War Pre-Workout

Overall, Total War Pre-Workout is an effective high-stim pre-workout to help power up your exercise performance (though you might, like our tester, get a bit of the tingles and attention-scattering jitters). You get 25 flavors to choose from, though they’re artificially sweetened, and customers are mixed on the taste (our tester liked it).

What’s great about Redcon1 is that you can get single-serving samples of Total War Pre-Workout for $2.99 each if you’re in the mood to try it out before committing.

CrossFit athletes train for the unknown and unknowable. 

HYROX athletes, on the other hand, know exactly what’s coming. 

When John Singleton, founder of The Progrm, was approached to lead an official HYROX training program, he saw it as a welcome change of pace from traditional CrossFit training modalities. 

The two sports can be looked at like sisters, but they’re certainly not twins. 

Each has unique characteristics and differs greatly in terms of training methods and the areas of fitness they center around.

HYROX vs. CrossFit: What’s the Difference?

HYROX, a sport that originated in Europe, is a set workout event that involves a mix of running (a lot of it) and cross-training station work. It’s an endurance event that, on average, takes athletes a little over an hour to complete. 

Its growth in the United States is notable, and the crossover from CrossFit to HYROX is also becoming increasingly common. 

What sets HYROX apart from other fitness races is that it has developed an elite tier of competition on top of the community divisions in each event.

“[HYROX] has been quite clear in their specifics. They focus on one specific event. You know the course, you know the stations you’re going to be doing, and although there are similarities [with CrossFit], the fundamental difference is quite big,” Singleton says.

Singleton says the approach to HYROX programming differs quite a bit from CrossFit training. 

In part, that’s because CrossFit athletes who start running every day to train for the HYROX race are much more susceptible to overuse injuries. Instead, athletes need to increase that volume sensibly. 

“With CrossFit athletes, there’s a lot of luck when it comes to the programming [and] where they’re going to place on the leaderboard,” Singleton says. “Whereas what we’ll start to find in HYROX is you can have a very good prediction of where your athlete is going to finish because you know their times, and so that helps to lead in the taper. Everything gets a bit more clear with what you’re going to do [and] what you’re prescribing for them.”

Additionally, since the HYROX format race is set and repeated, there is more data available for each athlete and coach to analyze. The athlete can break down each station and understand where they did well and where they can improve. 

“It’s been exciting for us as coaches to be able to have that data and that information because in CrossFit, you can get really random workouts,” Singleton says. 

Using The Progrm for HYROX

The HYROX program offered by The Progrm has three adaptable training levels, focusing on running, strength and conditioning, and recovery. The programming includes warm-up routines, technique videos, and built-in taper weeks. 

Another way Singleton has ingrained The Progrm into HYROX is by providing support to CrossFit gym owners looking to bring HYROX-style programming into their gyms. 

“No doubt, now, gym owners have some members who are interested in doing HYROX. However, the programming ends up being quite specific relative to just normal CrossFit conditioning classes, and that’s one thing that we’ve really tried to implement as well as we can,” Singleton says. 

Some gyms have even started to add a specific HYROX class to the daily class schedule, Singleton says. 

Gyms should see the integration of HYROX as a win-win since athletes can feel the same sense of community that they would get from the traditional CrossFit class. 

“I think for the gyms that are embracing it, they’ve really got nothing to lose,” he added. 

Those looking for more information on HYROX can find the full season breakdown here.

On Monday, Talking Elite Fitness shared an interview with Professional Fitness Athletes’ Association (PFAA) president Brent Fikowski and PFAA board member Pat Vellner. 

The interview dug into the inner workings of the PFAA and their recent demands to CrossFit, one of which included asking for the removal of Dave Castro from CrossFit’s Sports Team in the aftermath of Lazar Đukić’s death at the 2024 CrossFit Games. The interview also touched on CrossFit’s response to the demands and more. 

Here are six key takeaways from the podcast with interviewers Sean Woodland and Tommy Marquez.

[Related: Best Whey Protein Powders]

1. Why Make Demands Before the Investigation Into Lazar Đukić’s Death Is Finished?

Vellner’s response: “I think it’s important for people to know that the demands that were made are not exclusive to what has happened this year at the 2024 CrossFit Games. It’s not decided in singular to one incident. It’s not just about the death of Lazar.”

Vellner went on to reiterate that CrossFit’s “willful disengagement” from listening to athletes’ concerns, largely regarding athlete safety, led to the demands.

As a result, this year’s events were the final “breach of trust.” The PFAA argues that athletes are fed up with CrossFit’s culture, which has too often silenced their concerns.  

“There’s still a culture of fear that exists amongst the athletes to speak up,” Vellner said.

The PFAA ultimately feels that breaking away from this culture will be “nearly impossible,” Vellner explained, without removing Castro, CrossFit’s current Director of Sport, from the helm.

“It’s not just about the results of the investigation. It’s about this long-term systematic behavior…Our demands won’t change based on the results of the investigation…This just goes a lot deeper than that. And I think it was important for us to take fast and firm action to just show the seriousness of the PFAA and the athletes in general,” he concluded.

2. If Not Castro, Who Should Be in Charge?

“I don’t think anyone needs to [replace Dave], in our opinion. That’s not really a job title. I don’t know who invented hockey or who directed the first Super Bowl,” Vellner said. “In most major sports examples that we have, those positions aren’t really known or necessary. One major part of Dave’s role in the Sport Team is he programs workouts…and I think a team of people working together could achieve what he does at least at the same level.”

He added: “Change is hard. People are unfamiliar with what the Games would look like without Dave…CrossFit started as this challenger brand in the fitness space…and I think that it needed a persona like [Dave] in its infancy to grow to what it was. And Dave was integral in making that happen, and I think he did a lot of great things for the company and for the sport. [But] I think that it’s a different time now.”

3.  What Has CrossFit’s Response Been to the PFAA’s demands?

CrossFit acknowledged the PFAA’s demands, according to a statement given to Men’s Health:

From a CrossFit spokesperson via email to Men’s Health:

“We acknowledge the demands made today by the PFAA, and appreciate their desire for action. We initiated a third-party investigation within 48 hours of the tragic accident that is actively underway. As the facts are gathered in the coming weeks, we are prepared to take all appropriate actions based on the findings. In the meantime, CrossFit’s CEO, Don Faul, will continue to speak directly with the broader athlete population, including the PFAA, as well as coaches and other members of the community to ensure we understand their perspectives and how we can work together to build greater trust and safety for the future of our sport.”

During the TEF interview, Fikowski said the PFAA spoke to CrossFit, and the company spokespeople have said any decisions they make moving forward will be announced publicly.

“We’re not privy to anything [more than the public],” Fikowski said.

4. What Happens if CrossFit Ignores the Demands?

Vellner’s response: “We have a plan.”

“If they say no, it’s a pretty clear signal that athletes are not factored into their priorities around the sport, and so, there is a plan but we’re not going to disclose it just yet,” he added.

5. Who Is Eligible To Be Part of the PFAA, and How Is the Board of Directors Determined?

Fikowski explained that the top individual male and female athletes in the world, based on their competition results, are eligible to be members of the PFAA.

“There’s a rolling 24-month calendar, where each month, the oldest month gets kicked out,” Fikowski explained. 

Right now, there are 143 eligible men or women, and 63 percent of them are confirmed voting members. Fikowski explained that this will trend up in the upcoming weeks as the recent Games rookies are added as eligible members and voters.

Once an athlete is a member, they can attend meetings and become eligible to vote on who becomes a member of the PFAA board. (To become a PFAA board member, you also need to be an eligible member based on your performance results).

One big thing: Seven-time CrossFit Games champion Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr posted a statement on Instagram this week, explaining her position with the PFAA.

“In 2020, I helped start the PFAA with Brent Fikowski and Adam Neiffer because we wanted to elevate our sport and create a safer and more stable future for anyone striving to compete. While I have stepped back from being directly involved in the association, my belief in this mission remains the same,” she wrote.

She added: “There are many questions that have to be answered before we can move forward, but I’m ready to do my part. I just hope CrossFit is prepared to do the same, to step up and work together to improve the sport, protect its athletes, and create a better future for all of us.”

6. Why Do We Need the PFAA?

Vellner’s response: “For one thing, it’s a model that you see in other sports.”

“Changes, particularly around safety or rule changes, like you see rules around head injuries…that’s stuff that is pushed by athletes primarily. They’re trying to protect themselves and their interests and they want the sport and the game that they play to reflect that,” he continued.

CrossFit’s unwillingness to engage in “meaningful conversations” with the athletes aside, having an organization like the PFAA is common practice in sports these days. Vellner explained that it is a way to ensure athletes’ voices are heard.

The Big Picture

Until CrossFit’s third-party investigation is complete and/or the company responds more directly to the PFAA’s demands, the sport seems to be in a holding pattern. 

With more questions than answers, what the 2025 season will look like at this point is anyone’s guess.

The 2024 IPF World Equipped Sub-Junior Championships from Aug. 28 through Sept. 8, 2024, in Valletta, Malta, could fill a spreadsheet with world-record-breaking lifts. In the Men’s 105KG Sub-Junior class, all four IPF equipped world records fell.

Jakub Golianek knocked down the squat and bench press records, which was only sufficient for a silver medal. Demitri Ayala out-lifted the field, achieving an IPF equipped Sub-Junior deadlift record of 322 kilograms en route to his gold medal-winning 892-kilogram total.

Ayala’s record deadlift can be seen in the video below, courtesy of the IPF’s Instagram page:

While chalked to the nines, Ayala stepped up to the barbell in a sumo stance while wearing his lifting suit and lifting belt. He assumed an overhand grip and ascended slowly to lockout with his head tilted all the way back at the top of the lift.
