This C4 Original Strawberry Margarita is an alcohol-free \u003cstrong\u003epre-workout\u003c\/strong\u003e by Cellucor with strawberry as the base. You can choose from a 201 or 402-gram tub, good for 30 or 60 scoops. The small tub is perfect for trying out the flavor first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePre-workout, what exactly is that\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany people wonder what a pre-workout exactly is. It is a drink powder that you prepare 20 to 30 minutes before your session. It usually contains caffeine, along with amino acids such as beta-alanine and often creatine as well. With C4 Original, five vitamins are added to that. The difference with a protein shake? You often take that after training and it revolves around protein. A pre-workout is specifically intended for the moment before your training. However, it is not a replacement for good food. Think of it as a separate part of your routine, alongside a varied diet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe formula of C4 Original, ingredient by ingredient\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you look at the label, there are five active ingredients and five vitamins listed. The largest item is 1600mg CarnoSyn® beta-alanine. CarnoSyn® is a patented brand name for beta-alanine, an amino acid that your body couples with histidine and thus converts into carnosine. Next comes 1500mg creatine monohydrate (creatine bound to one water molecule), good for 1319mg creatine. There is also 1000mg L-arginine hydrochloride, 200mg N-acetyl-L-tyrosine and 150mg caffeine. The vitamins are vitamin C, niacin, B6, folic acid and B12. Vitamin B6 contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism. By the way: niacin contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStrawberry with a sweet and sour twist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flavor revolves around strawberry, with a fresh, slightly sour aftertaste. There is no alcohol in it, even though the name suggests otherwise. Cellucor sweetens this variant with sucralose and acesulfame-K. The color comes from beet red. Because the flavorings weigh a little more, one scoop here is 6.7 grams. Good to know: the flavors of C4 Original have the same active ingredients per scoop. What differs are the aromas, the coloring, the sweeteners and therefore the weight of a scoop, which per flavor is around 6.6 to 6.9 grams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e150mg caffeine, how you calculate it afterwards\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the label it says 150mg caffeine per recommended daily serving of 6.7 grams. Want to know how that compares to your daily cups? A regular cup of filter coffee contains roughly 80 to 100mg. One scoop of C4 Original is therefore slightly above that. Good to know: the caffeine here comes in anhydrous form, so as concentrated powder without moisture. It is chemically the same substance as in your coffee or tea. Because every scoop contains the same amount, you can easily keep track of your total intake on a training day, as long as you level off the scoop properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eC4 Original Strawberry Margarita is a good way to get to know one of the more pronounced C4 flavors. With 30 servings in the 201-gram tub, you can last about a month with a training schedule of seven days. The 402-gram tub has twice as many servings, so 60, good for about two months.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cellucor","offers":[{"title":"Strawberry Margarita \/ 201 grams","offer_id":54826893803858,"sku":"Cellucor-009","price":24.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Strawberry Margarita \/ 402 grams","offer_id":54912259457362,"sku":"Cellucor-008","price":37.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/Cellucor-009.jpg?v=1790248939","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/c4-original-pre-workout-strawberry-margarita","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
