I play ice hockey (goalie) against some very high level players. I feel like this pre-workout drink gives me enough energy boost to keep up with them. However, it's got about 100g of caffeine in it (green tea and yerba mate) so sometimes I'm a bit edgy for the rest of the day since I'm sensitive to caffeine. The taste is decent (I've been taking it for so long I don't even really remember what it tastes like since I just gulp it down...but it's not nasty, and I've tasted a lot of nasty powders in the search for health and energy). I put it dry in my shaker bottle and then add water at the rink and then drink it about 15-30 minutes before hitting the ice.

I use the Vega recovery accelerator & protein powder, and had laid off the Pre-Workout Energizer, but when I went back to it, I definitely noticed a difference in my workout right away.I am a boxer & noticed as soon as I started shadowboxing that I broke a sweat quickly & had more "zing" in my movements. The PWE seems to affect me physically & mentally - I had more focus and motivation.I originally purchased this as a replacement for Red Bull, which keeps me up to late and is definitely NOT good for the body!As far as taste goes, if you are stuck on sweet and want your workout products to taste super yummy, then you may not like this Vega line of products.

I've been using this for about a year and a half now. I slowly moved into trying to be healthy and looking for things that didn't make me feel like my heart was going to explode in my chest. I've used a lot of the popular pre-workouts and I've had issues with sweating, dizziness, blood pressure, and pre-workout crash. I do Crossfit at least 4 days a week and general lifting on other days. I don't need a pre-workout that's going to send me through the roof since those workouts are exhilarating enough.This gives me a nice feel good feeling. I don't ever feel like being lazy, I just feel happy and energetic. I want to go to the gym versus sit on the couch.

When I started back at the gym last year after some time off (ok some years off) I lacked a healthy pre-workout energizing drink. I avoid anything with high fructose corn syrup or artificial sweeteners so my drink of choice was iced coffee or tea. While the caffeine helps initially there's no nutrition backing it so a crash is inevitable, not good for an hour long workout. I found this at my local health food store in small single use packets so I tried a couple. The flavor is not bad, it didn't upset my stomach while running on the treadmill and after thirty minutes of moderate to heavy exercise I realized I still had energy to burn rather than sucking wind like I was used to feeling.

Overall, this is a great product. I get a solid energy boost that helps propel me through a 1.25hr weightlifting workout without the jitteriness associated with the kind of pre-workout product you can expect to find at GNC. The powder tastes pretty good; its not overly sweet but it also doesn't come off tasting like medicine, a common problem at the healthier end of the pre-workout powder spectrum. I've found it particularly useful on mornings when I don't have enough time to eat before going to the gym. The brown rice syrup (better alternative than refined sugar!) has enough caloric value to keep me from feeling faint even when I'm loading up the bar for squats.The only problem I detect is an issue with mixability.

I really love the Vega products because they are organic, vegan friendly and they do work without being gene manipulated or full or chemicals. If you do work out and do something good for your body, you should also eat supplements that are good and healthy, not destroy your workout effort with those cheap chemical supps on the market. Great product and a must have if you work out.I trained with and without and when I use it, I do notice a real different, it does energise very well ahead of a workout. I also use it once in a while as a drink just like that. I just love the taste and believe in the product to be in general a great source of vitamins & minerals.It has a really good taste,

This stuff is great. I've tried all kinds of pre-workout energizers and they always leave me feeling like I did shots of liquid cocaine by the time they really kick in when I am at the gym. They all usually taste pretty bad too. This one is fantastic. I got my first bottle from a friend who works for Vega as a gift. I fell in love with it right away. It taste fine (not, like, great tasting, but not bad tasting either) and definitely adds an extra 30 minutes onto my workout. It gives me that extra push to run that last quarter mile, the energy to really push myself through the last set of chest reps, and there is no crash with the comedown. I sleep fine with this stuff.

So far, this product has been awesome. I had sworn off pre-workouts, since most of the supplements out there are completely unregulated (until people start getting sick and/or dying). Usually, you are just relying on the reputation of the company. Well, with this stuff, it's different. I have no worries about what I'm putting into my body.The best thing is the fact that it keeps me energized throughout my entire workout. It doesn't contain the upfront super-stimulation of most pre-workouts, which led me to doubt it's effectiveness (at first). However, I have noticed that I am just as energized and hard-charging now at the end of my workout as I am at the beginning. It just feels like it is a more consistent,

What a fantastic Pre-workout supplement. I have been using this and many other Vega products for a while and move them all.This Pre-workout is a great option, and is very well balanced. Not being synthetic and using good ingredients is a huge plus.I have tried others out there and always felt a sudden surge of energy, complemented with fast heart beat and jitters. Not good.The Vega Pre-workout gives you the energy and focus without any of the sudden high sugary or caffeine rush associated with the others.I was this every morning around 530am to 6am. Will drink while out walking dogs and typically 30 minutes prior to workout. It is just enough and when workout time comes,

I usually work out first thing when I wake up. Also I have low blood sugar in the morning so instead of eating, waiting half an hour or so so I don't get a stitch while working out, I just drink this. Works really well to pep me up for my workout. Coffee, I find, gives me too much of a high energy and crash, while this seems to slowly lower (very light crash). The only downside is it doesn't mix completely in water, so I just swirl it around in my cup and try to drink it fast. It is a little grainy too. It does work though, so I don't know how they would make this dissolve in water but that would be very helpful. The recovery drink and protein that you take after both do dissolve,

This is one of my all-time favourites ... it not only works but is all natural ingredients and provides you with vitamins and minerals. I not only use it pre-workout but also sometimes as a energising drink in the morning to wake up. However, I did use it during training and a 500km / 7 day cycle ride in Asia and it did an excellent job to energise me. Besides that it works, for me the other very important point is, that it is so healthy with natural ingredients. After I used it for the fist time I was impressed how much it wakes you up without resorting to chemistry. I also like the fruity taste. It does not dissolve instantly and completely, so you need to re-stir it again.

Received product on time. I was searching for a vegan/organic pre workout item and Vega energizer would always pop up. I understand it is not Certified Organic, but I appreciate it is a plant based energizer that does not give me the tingling feeling in my fingers or jitters like my previous purchase of Pure Pump. This product does keep me focused and alter to even make it to my daily workouts religiously early mornings. Its safe enough that I give 1/2 a serving to my 9 year old daughter before her 2 hour basketball conditionings. Acia berry is my go to flavor and have not tired any other ones. This product is hard to dissolve in you beverage if you just try to stir it with a spoon.

When I first started the P90X routine the only time of the day I really could target for carving out time was early morning. I was concerned about having enough fuel to get through the rigorous routine and needed a solution where morning food would not weigh me down or get me cramped. My coach recommended this product (Vega Sport Pre-Workout Energizer) at the time and I have been using it all year. There are many other's on the market but many have LOTS of caffeine. I wanted my own coffee thank you very much (it's the little things in life). This product is all plant based and created by a Triathlon athlete who I am not familiar with.I like it and have found it provides all the energy needed

I've already tried a lot of pre-workouts but they've all failed me because they are pretty nasty tasting and give me the jitters, (I'm pretty sensitive to caffeine-even coffee gives me the jitters but it's too bitter for me), but this formula is really different. I first bought it from a GNC about a year ago because I was looking for something more natural. The sales person there was worthless, so I did my own research and found out that this was created by a triathlete and doesn't have a bunch of crap in it, it's plant based, (which means it's plant extract based), but still better than a lot of stuff on the market. Long lasting energy, no jittery feeling, non-addictive. Excellent pre-workout.

I love this stuff. Since I cut back morning coffee, I have needed an extra boost to get me through my morning workouts, and this stuff is amazing. It keeps me going for an hour plus, with a decently high heart-rate. I find that it can be less effective if I use it for several days in a row, but for those first workouts back after a break, WOW! I am super-charged for the entire day. The boost builds up gradually and decreases gradually -- it's very natural-feeling. As for the taste, yeah it's not the greatest -- but I shake it up with water in an 8 oz jar the night before, chill it over night, and it goes down fast and easy the next morning.
