Twelve cans, twelve workouts. This is a pre workout drink you drink cold straight from the can, without a shaker and without a scoop. Each 500 ml can contains 160 mg caffeine, zero sugar and zero carbohydrates. Intended for athletes who want something half an hour before their session that is already prepared, fits in the gym bag and can be opened anywhere.
The difference lies mainly in behaviour, not in chemistry. Powder has to be measured out, dissolved and carried along in a shaker that you then have to rinse out again. A ready-to-drink pre workout skips that entire step. You pull open the can and you are done. On the other hand, you cannot adjust the dosage: it contains exactly what it contains, the same every time. For anyone keeping an eye on their caffeine intake, that is an advantage rather than a limitation. In terms of absorption, a pre workout drink is barely inferior to powder in water. In liquid form caffeine no longer has to dissolve, so the only thing determining the speed is how quickly your stomach empties. With a calorie-free, carbonated drink that happens quickly.
The can states 32 mg per 100 ml. Across 500 ml that comes down to 160 mg, roughly as much as one and a half cups of strong filter coffee. EFSA applies 400 mg per day for adults as the safe upper limit and 200 mg as the limit for a single intake. One can stays neatly below that, but add coffee, tea or a gel and the daily total mounts up quickly. Good to know: caffeine has a half-life of four to six hours. If you train in the evening, there is still a considerable amount left in your blood at midnight. Many people wonder whether they can drink two on a heavy day. In short: you can, but you are then above the EFSA guideline for a single intake and your sleep pays the bill.
Besides caffeine, the European formula contains L-arginine and taurine, both at 0.21 percent, which comes down to just over a gram per can. Betaine is included under the brand name BetaPower. Be honest about this: those amounts are below what you come across in studies, so caffeine does most of the work in this can. What is present at a legally established amount are the two B vitamins. Per can you get 7.5 mg niacin (47% of the reference intake) and 1.25 micrograms of vitamin B12 (50%). Niacin contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Vitamin B12 contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism. Good to know if you are familiar with the American version: the European formula is shorter and contains exactly the substances listed above.
Frozen Bombsicle is the flavour of a blue ice lolly: fresh, slightly sour and distinctly sweet, without the syrupy feel of a powdered drink. The carbonation makes it more of a soft drink than a supplement, and that is exactly why many people find this format more pleasant. Drink it well chilled and spread it over ten to fifteen minutes. Five hundred millilitres of carbonated liquid right before squats or intervals sits heavily on the stomach for some people. And because you are buying a tray of twelve, this is also the flavour you drink twelve times in a row.
All in all, this is a pre workout drink for convenience: one can, a fixed caffeine dose and nothing to weigh out or clean. Anyone who prefers to adjust dosages themselves, or who wants specific substances at study-level amounts, is better off with loose powder.
That is 32 mg per 100 ml, about one and a half cups of strong filter coffee. With a fixed amount per can, you know exactly what you are getting.
A 500 ml can provides 16 kcal and contains no sugar, carbohydrates or fat. Sweetened with sucralose and steviol glycosides, so it fits into any calorie budget.
Open and drink. The can goes in your sports bag and you don't need any water or cutlery on the go.
Enough for three to four weeks of training at three sessions per week, without having to reorder individual cans.

The difference lies in convenience and dosing flexibility. With powder, you weigh it out yourself and can take half a scoop; with a can, you get exactly the same amount every time. A can costs more per serving than a scoop of powder, but you don't need a shaker and there is nothing to mix.
160 mg per 500 ml can, or 32 mg per 100 ml. That is roughly equivalent to one and a half cups of strong filter coffee. Please note: the American version of this product contains 200 mg per 473 ml can, so you may sometimes see that higher figure online. The European cans we sell contain 160 mg.
About 20 to 30 minutes beforehand. Caffeine reaches its peak in your bloodstream roughly 45 to 90 minutes after consumption, so start your warm-up while it's kicking in. Don't chug the can: 500 ml of carbonated drink right before heavy sets can often leave you feeling bloated.
Use no more than 1 can per day and take other sources of caffeine such as coffee, tea and energy drinks into account.
It contains 0.21% L-arginine and 0.21% taurine, which is over a gram per can; betaine is included in a smaller amount under the name BetaPower. In addition, each can contains niacin (47%) and vitamin B12 (50% of the reference intake).
No, although the experience is similar. A standard 250 ml energy drink contains around 80 mg of caffeine and often contains sugar; this can contains 160 mg of caffeine, zero sugar and zero carbohydrates, plus arginine, taurine and betaine. It is not a sports drink either: it contains no carbohydrates or significant electrolytes.
