Healthspan Elite All Blacks Pre-Workout – Strawberry Lime 480 g (20 servings)

It is a powdered pre-workout drink, strawberry lime flavour, developed by Healthspan Elite with the nutritionists and players of the New Zealand rugby team. Its improved formula combines citrulline, creatine, taurine, beta-alanine, glutamine, tyrosine, caffeine and B vitamins to help you approach every session or match with focus, energy and intensity.

A 24 g serving provides 8 g of L-citrulline malate, 3 g of creatine monohydrate, 3 g of taurine, 2 g of beta-alanine, 2 g of L-glutamine, 2 g of L-tyrosine and 40 mg of caffeine, as well as 100% of the NRV of vitamins B3, B6 and B12, which help reduce fatigue. The formula contains no protein or BCAAs, to stay focused on preparing for exertion.

Mix 1 serving of 24 g (about 1 level scoop) into 350 ml of water, then drink it before or during your training session or match. Do not exceed the recommended dose.

The 480 g pouch contains 20 servings of 24 g, i.e. 20 training sessions or matches. A scoop is provided in the pouch.

Each serving contains 40 mg of caffeine, a moderate amount, well below that of many pre-workouts on the market. It is a good option if you are looking for a boost without too many stimulants. If you are very sensitive to caffeine, avoid taking it late in the day and take into account the other sources of caffeine you consume (coffee, energy drinks, caffeinated gels).

Yes. The product is Informed Sport certified: each batch is tested by the LGC anti-doping laboratory (Sport and Specialised Analytical Services) for a wide range of substances banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). It is the level of assurance sought by athletes subject to testing.

The slight tingling on the skin (face, hands, neck) is a known, temporary effect of beta-alanine, called paraesthesia. It is harmless and usually disappears within a few tens of minutes. Not everyone feels it, and it tends to fade with regular use.

Yes, the formula was designed with top-level rugby players, so for intermittent, intense efforts: repeated sprints, duels, changes of pace. It suits football, rugby, basketball or handball as well as gym or physical conditioning sessions, on training days and match days alike.

Yes, the formula was deliberately made lighter (no protein or BCAAs) so that it combines easily with the rest of your routine: protein or a recovery drink after exertion, electrolytes during exertion. Note: one serving already contains 3 g of creatine. If you take creatine daily, adjust your dose on the days you use this pre-workout so you do not needlessly double up.

Yes, All Blacks Pre-Workout is suitable for vegans and vegetarians, and it is gelatine-free. As it contains caffeine, it is not recommended for children or pregnant women. If you are on medical treatment or have a health condition, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before using it. It is made at a site that also handles milk, gluten, soy, fish and sulphites.
