Hey guys, I've been anti supplement for a while, but decided to try out some pre workouts so here's my thoughts on C4. I have no relationship with Cellucor, this is an unbiased review.
Mixing:10/10 Hard to believe how easy C4 is to mix, no stirring whatsoever, just pour water and drink.
Flavor: 8.5/10 Smelling the tub got me VERY excited about the taste, but the taste when mixed with water isn't as good as it smells. It tastes more like Kool-aid than a margarita. Also, it's a very sweet flavor so use a good amount of water.
Energy: 7.5/10. I find that I get a little energy boost on C4, heart goes a little faster, but nothing exceptional here. A solid energy boost, but not too different than straight caffeine. Helps get that extra aggression when unracking a barbell.
Focus: 6/10. C4 doesn't give me that laser like focus that other pre workout supps do, I was disappointed in this category.
Other thoughts: I like that C4 doesn't give me any sort of crash, but wished it provided more focus in the gym, I picked up the 30 serving tub for around $35 after taxes at a local supplement store.
Overall: 7/10 C4 is a solid pre workout and good for people who don't have stim/caffeine tolerance. I wish it was stronger, as I take the same dosage (based on caffeine content) with other pwos and they provide more focus.
Let me know if you want more pre-workout reviews.

35$ for a tub? Dude you way overpaid, buy off here and save yourself some amzing deals and save your $$$$
How many scoops did you take?
how did you dose the product? If you did 1 scoop that is probably why being 135mg caffeine, some people need around 200mg to really stimulate yourself, some get crushed off 1 in a complete fasted state (Upon waking). If you are dosing around food this may be another reason why you dont feel it as well (Diminished Stim)
Let me know buddy!

Thanks for the response,
Sometime I use 3/4 of a scoop, sometimes a rounded scoop. I shoot for around 100-150mg of caffeine with all pwo supps I take because I never drink coffee or caffeinated teas, so that's all I need at 170 lbs. The $35 was after taxes and I actually had a discount coupon(mind you this is a new, local supplement store). I'm Canadian so shipping costs are usually pretty high which is why I didn't order off of Bb.com and I also had the coupon. I just checked the store and its actually not available on the Canadian store, I bought it a few months back so I'm sure if it was for sale back then.Last edited by Bulking4Life21; 04-07-2014 at 07:19 PM.
