Applied Nutriceuticals NOVATE-New tablet dissolving pre-workout

[BrennaSexyLegs]

Never seen a pre workout like this guys. It's in tablet form, and you put 1-3 tabs in your water/shaker and dissolve them. Pretty innovated in my opinion. Seems like it would be very easy for "on the go" situations where you don't have time to put powder in a little baggie.

Initial Thoughts: The tabs were pretty big! I wasn't sure what I was expecting but they are about the size of a quarter and the thickness of a piece of bread. When I opened up the package, they smell really good (fruit punch flavor). They dissolved very well too. No chunks. Had a great workout for my first time usage. This will be interesting to see how it continues going! Pretty cool innovated pre workout so far though.

First! Glad you had a good experience with it so far.

in for your feedback B.

[Gwyndane]

how many tabs do u use?

[drooks10]

Really looking forward to your feedback!

[mrdead]

Subbed! Can't wait to see your thoughts on this!

[sloop]

The party can start now.

[BrennaSexyLegs]

Woah! Lots of people following Thanks

First workout I used 2 tabs. Today I used 3. It's kinda cool to watch them dissolve, and they dissolve completely. The consistency is a little weird though...I'll try to think of something to compare it to as I go through this log.

It works great! I've been having great workouts.

Question: Any specific reason for 540% of folate? I don't usually see that much in pre workouts. Just curious. Also, any idea how much caffeine is in a 3 tab serving? It's in a 535mg "energy and focus optimizer" blend.

I think I put my finger on it. The consistency is a little bit gritty, even after it's mixed. Not the best, but not the worst either. It helps if you "swirl" your cup/shaker before each sip

[obey46]

Solid work so far! Sorry to answer this late. There's about 100mg of caffeine per tablet. Easy to miss, but we list caffeine content now in the warning label. As for the Folate, it protects athletes against high intensity exercise and Oxidative stress cause by intensive excessive. The Astragin in NOVate helps increase more absorption of nutrients and ingredients.

The binding agent is what gives it a milky texture than most powders.

Here's more about how it works:

if im not mistaken the astragin might give it a slight mint-like cooling sensation. it was in some of my RCSS stuff and i noticed that, just cant remember if it was the astragin or not.


also, in! glad to see you're enjoying it so far

Also Astragin is suppose to increase ATP

Great workout! I'm getting used to the "milky" texture of the pre workout now. Flavor is good too. It's kinda fun to drop the tabs in my water

I might be working out at a different location(car drive) this weekend, so if I do, it'll be the perfect pre workout for "on the go"

[sloop]

Are you still using 3 tabs?

That's pretty stout for such a tiny female. That might knock half of the male AppNut reps over.

Great workout! The pre wrkout is working super good for me. I'm gettin more and more used to the consistency of the pre as well. I still just love the fact that you can drop these little tabs in water an choose how "strong" you want your pre

[obey46]

Nice! Glad you're getting a kick out of it! I agree, dropping the tablets is somewhat of a different experience. Not to mention you can take it with you w/out a scooper.

exactly! I went out of town this weekend and wanted to still have a workout with pre, so I just took some tabs. No need to worry about the scooper or messy powder.

How are you liking the energy duration from NOVate? Do you find it lasts about average, just as long, or longer than other pre-workouts you've tried in the 300mg caffeine range?

Great workout! Still love the pre. It's doing its job-I work out at 5am and this stuff wakes me up and gets me motivated to have a good workout everyday

I feel like I have energy from 5am till about 10am, then it starts to wear off a bit. I workout and feel great, and feel great at work for the first half of the day. I don't crash. I just start to get tired from work. Meh. Being a receptionist may sound easy, but at an oral surgeon's office, it can be rough sometimes

That sounds about right, I usually take 3 tabs around 4:30 or 5:00pm and I'm good to go until 9 or 10 some nights.

No crash either.

If I take any pre that late, I have a hard time sleeping. Plus I like to workout early-it helps "wake me up" for the day.
