Pre-workout supplements are designed to give you the energy and focus you need to hit the gym hard, especially if you tend to work out at the beginning or end of the day when energy levels can be low and feelings of fatigue may set in. Nutrigo Lab Strength certainly fits this description and some.

Aimed primarily at bodybuilders and athletes, but available to anyone who trains for strength and muscle growth, this food supplement is available in powder form and mixes easily with water to become a pre-workout drink designed to improve strength and endurance during a workout. It’s been specially designed by nutritionists to promote laser focus in the gym allowing you to work out harder and for longer, thus pushing you through your perceived limits to help produce significant results.

Manufactured by KeyPlayer Ltd, Nutrigo Lab Strength claims to increase performance and metabolism without the ‘crash’ after effects associated with many caffeine-based products. In this review I’ll be looking at the claims in more detail, trying to find some user testimonials, and adding in my own experience of using the product, to offer a balanced and fair review of this supplement and whether it’s worth your time and investment.

Reduction in tiredness and fatigue post-workout with no caffeine crash.

How Does It Work, And What Are The Ingredients?

Lab Strength contains 18 active complex ingredients termed ‘Strong Vascular Boosters’ which increase muscle pump and accelerates your readiness to perform intense exercise.

Specifically, in terms of the most potent active ingredients, each 450g serving includes:

4000mg of Creatine

Creatine is one of the most well-researched and proven supplements which helps increase performance during exercise by rapidly producing energy. The body produces its own creatine after you eat protein which your muscles then convert into ‘creatine phosphate’ and then into adenosine triphosphate which it then uses for explosive exercise. The body typically cannot produce creatine in sufficient amounts for it to have any beneficial effect in terms of performance, so the supplement form is often taken to produce the increased strength and endurance you look for when working out.

250mg of RedNite

RedNite is a fresh beetroot powder that has been clinically proven to improve ‘muscle-firing’ rates, increase neuromuscular efficiency, decrease tiredness and boost endurance and stamina. It’s also well-regarded as a way to help widen blood vessels, thus improving circulation and helping to maintain healthy blood pressure. The inclusion of RedNite helps to deliver enhanced nitrate content for optimal health and to increase energy naturally.

300mg of extra

extra is a natural solution that helps to enhance mental performance, alertness, and focus as an alternative to caffeine. It’s made primarily from Alpinia galangal – a spice used in Asian cuisine. extra targets the ANF system (Attention Network Function) which is the brain’s ability to allocate processing functions to specific tasks and keep mentally alert. It is considered unique among caffeine-free energy supplements due to its same-day effect which can last up to five hours. Note this product also contains anhydrous caffeine.

3000mg of Citrulline Malate

Citrulline is produced naturally in the body in small amounts and can also be found in foods such as watermelon. High levels of citrulline have been shown to produce benefits on overall health and performance during exercise as well as an increase in GH – the body’s growth hormone which helps to build muscle. It’s also known for its beneficial effects in increasing blood flow and improving circulation.

Other ingredients include L-Arginine, Beta Alanine, Bitter Orange Extract, Cocoa Seed Extract, Cayenne pepper, Vitamin B6, and Pantothenic Acid. There is nothing synthetic or unnatural included in the ingredients, with everything very clearly laid out on the reverse side of the tub.
