Sour
This was extremely sour with an awful taste

Hi Brianna, thanks for sharing your feedback! Some can find the taste of Pre-Workout supplements a bit bold, for that we recommend adding more water such as 16-20 ounces. Please give this a try and see if it helps the flavor.

Works well
I recently started my fitness journey & was gifted this pre work out by my friend. I will most definitely be repurchasing, the flavor is pretty good. Taste like strawberry lemonade with no sugar. It personally helps me so much, ever since I started taking it I last 20 min on the stair master. There’s a review that says it gets chunky, it does if you don’t properly close the lids they provide.

A better alternative to not this
It has natural flavors which can be anything. Not the cleanest ingredients. Also contain beta alanine known to cause tingling sensation and used in most pre. I stay away. A better alternative is drink coconut water or straight up coffee.

Not worth it
10 doses for $20 for a pre that has terrible clinical dosages of the ingredients. Severely under dosed in my opinion. Beta alanine alone should be at least 3,000mg. This is blatantly ripping people off.

It made me so sick!
I only took half a scoop and it made me so sick!!! While I was working out everything was fine but then 15 minutes post workout…OMG! My vision got blurry, extremely nauseous and also experienced the worst headache ever. Felt horrendously sick for about 5 hours!

Favorite pre workout
In my opinion this is the best pre-workout since Mesomoroh! Gainful is like a CLEAN version of mesomoroh! Love Gainful products! I’ve been using their subscription for years now and I’m so happy Target is carrying their products because when I’m in between shipments I can always grab some from Target to get me by!

When will the packaging change at Target?
I see the brand reps said they changed the packaging, however, even now, target still carry's the old packaging in the container rather than the bag. Wish I took a before pic but I literally shaked 6 of them and they all sounded like blocks. I think I ended up with the worst out of the bunch, with it just molded to the bottom of the can. I had to use the tool I normally mash ground me up with, to mash it to a somewhat usable "powder". Otherwise I love this product and flavor. Gainful, do you know when your retailers will sell the pre workout (and other products) in the bag, and not the cans?

Hi there, Becca. I'm so sorry you managed to find a jar of pre-workout that used our old packaging. The new packaging is live in every store, but sounds like something definitely slipped through the cracks here. Please message our team at hello@gainful.com so we can gather a bit more info on this experience. Thanks so much.

New inside packing to keep fresh
I purchased this in the store and the powder was in a bag, sealed for freshness. I believe this company heard all your complaints and fixed the problem! The pre-workout was delicious and I only tried a half scoop for my first time. It was great and really helped me push my workout! Highly reccomend

Nope
So disappointing. Was excited to try. All the reviews are right. It was a solid block. Tastes like garbage. At that point it doesn’t matter if it works or not. Don’t recommend and will not be buying again.

Great product bad packagung
This was my favorite pre-workout. I love the clean ingredients and taste. I had purchased this several times with no issue until August 2023. That’s when the product started getting all clumped together. It must have had something to do with the high humidity levels of summer and the cardboard packaging because the product never had a clumping issue before. It’s the only reason I didn’t give this a 5 star rating. I returned a couple of containers and finally just kept one and used a fork to break it up as best as I could. I really hope they bring this product back with better packing!

Hi there Kay, we’re so sorry you received a Pre-Workout in this condition. If you haven’t already, please send a message to our CX team at hello@gainful.com and we'll get you squared away. I want to share that we’ve implemented some changes to our packaging that will prevent this issue going forward. Lastly, the tingling sensation you're feeling is from the beta-alanine when the Pre-Workout kicks in. It is intended to be used right before exercise to give you a "boost". It has also been suggested in research to help improve exercise performance and endurance. If you have any further questions, please feel free to let us know when you message our team.

Don’t buy this, it tastes good but doesn’t dissolve well at all when trying to mix with water. Thumbs down

Hi there, we're so sorry to hear that you're having trouble dissolving your Pre-Workout in water! I want to share that we’ve implemented some changes to our packaging that will prevent this issue going forward, and we can't wait until it hits the shelves! In the meantime, give your jar an extra shake before opening, and then give it a good 30-second shake once it's in your Blender Bottle; any clumps should break up nicely. Be sure that you're adding your water first and then your Pre-Workout. We also recommend mixing your Pre-Workout as close to consumption as possible. If you have any further questions, message our team at hello@gainful.com.
