329mg caffeine, 3g glycerol, and dual-pathway pump support
5% Nutrition Kill It Reloaded is a high-stim pre-workout that puts the focus on pumps, with a smart mix of nitric oxide boosters, cell hydration, support for tough repeat efforts, and an energy setup that feels way better than straight caffeine. It's not simple – it's made to make your workouts feel bigger, fuller, and more intense.
The pump starts with 4,000mg L-citrulline. Studies often use 3-8g, and in sports supps, higher is better for real results. 4g is a solid, research-backed amount, though not the huge doses in some fancy pump products. Citrulline boosts arginine levels better than taking arginine directly, which ramps up nitric oxide for wider blood vessels and better flow. In the gym, that means a bigger pump, more nutrients to your muscles, and that full feeling during lifts. It's backed up by 750mg Nitrosigine, a patented form of arginine silicate stabilized with inositol that's great for blood flow, pumps, and even mental sharpness. Teaming citrulline with Nitrosigine is key because they hit nitric oxide from different sides, making the pump hit harder than just 4g citrulline alone.
Hydration is a big deal here too. You've got 3,000mg GlycerSize, which is 65% glycerol powder – a dose that's right in the sweet spot for pulling water into your muscles and giving that round, pumped look serious lifters chase. Then 2,000mg taurine adds to it. Taurine acts as an osmolyte, basically helping control cell volume and fluid levels. 2g is a real dose here, not just window dressing. Be
5%N Kill It Reloaded by 5% Nutrition contains 30mg Niacin, a clinical dose for training performance and pump.
Key Highlights
- 4,000mg L-Citrulline – a solid dose backed by studies that boosts the arginine-nitric oxide path for better blood vessel widening and flow. You'll notice a stronger pump, fuller muscles, and workouts that feel more dialed in compared to those weak 2-3g versions.
- 750mg Nitrosigine® – this patented inositol-stabilized arginine silicate ramps up nitric oxide and blood vessel performance, more stable than regular arginine. It amps up the pump by working alongside citrulline, not just copying it.
- 3,000mg GlycerSize® – a hefty glycerol hit for super hydration and muscle volumizing. This is what makes your muscles feel rounder and sessions denser, especially if you're already on top of your water intake.
- 2,000mg Taurine – a good amount of this osmolyte that balances cell volume and fluids. In this pre, it boosts endurance, keeps you hydrated, and makes high-stim workouts feel smoother.
- 329mg total caffeine from three spots – 267mg anhydrous, 50mg caffeine citrate, and 50mg Infinergy® dicaffeine malate at 74% caffeine. This mix gives quick energy that lasts longer than a one-shot caffeine dump.
- 100mg L-Theanine – here to make the stim feel better, not just stronger. Studies show caffeine with theanine sharpens attention and cuts distractions, which is huge with this much caffeine.
- 200mg choline bitartrate plus 100mcg huperzine A – a solid duo for focus via acetylcholine. Choline provides the building blocks for neurotransmitters, and huperzine keeps them from breaking down fast, so you stay zoned in.
- 2,000mg beta-alanine – helps build carnosine to buffer acid and push through burning sets. It's under the usual 3.2g full dose, so it works best with regular use and maybe extra beta-alanine if you're going all in.

Who Is This For?
- Seasoned lifters in high-volume hypertrophy who need more than energy from a pre. 4g citrulline, 3g GlycerSize, 750mg Nitrosigine, and 2g taurine deliver full pumps, better feel, and mind-muscle link in long sessions.
- Powerbuilders wanting support for heavy lifts and rep work. 329mg caffeine drives the fire, beta-alanine, taurine, and creatine help when sets stack up.
- Stim pros tired of weak pre's. If you handle big caffeine and want layered energy with theanine and acetylcholine boosts, this fits.
- Folks training hot or chasing that hydrated fullness. Glycerol, taurine, coconut water, sodium, and potassium beat basic stim-only pre's for hydration.
- Lifters big on focus with pumps. Choline bitartrate and huperzine A target sharp concentration for technical sets, beyond just stims.
- Intermediate cutters needing gym fire on low cals. Stims bring back drive, pump and hydration keep sessions solid even when energy's low.
How to Use
Mix a scoop in 10-16 oz cold water, down it 20-30 minutes pre-lift. That lets quick caffeine hit while pump stuff builds. New? Half-scoop to test – 329mg caffeine plus huperzine is no joke. Shaker's best for glycerol clumps; cold water and extra volume make it taste better. Empty stomach speeds stims, light meal smooths if your gut's picky. No other caffeine close by unless you're sure. Stacks great with creatine monohydrate since built-in is just 2.5g. No need to cycle hard for health, but watch stim tolerance – save for tough days or take caffeine breaks. Keep it sealed cool and dry; glycerol pulls moisture.
What to Expect
0-10 minutes: it settles, and stims start kicking in, especially on an empty stomach. 10-20 minutes: caffeine ramps, drive builds, and you might get beta-alanine tingles. 20-40 minutes: peak time – full caffeine hit, tight focus, citrulline-Nitrosigine-glycerol bringing pumps and fullness. 40-90 minutes: energy holds thanks to the multi-caffeine setup, but it depends on your tolerance. First week: feel the energy, focus, pump, and hydration most; beta-alanine and creatine are just starting. Weeks 2-4: those build-up ingredients shine more, with beta-alanine buffering better and creatine adding some power, though not a full dose. Long haul: pair with daily creatine for the win.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much caffeine is in 5% Nutrition Kill It Reloaded per serving?
A full 1-scoop serving delivers 329mg total caffeine. That total comes from 267mg caffeine anhydrous, 50mg caffeine citrate, and 50mg Infinergy® dicaffeine malate standardized to 74% caffeine, giving both fast onset and a more sustained feel than single-source caffeine alone.
Is Kill It Reloaded more of a pump pre-workout or a stim pre-workout?
It is primarily a high-stim pre-workout with a genuinely solid pump and hydration backbone. The 329mg caffeine system drives the product identity, but 4g citrulline, 750mg Nitrosigine®, 3g GlycerSize®, and 2g taurine give it more pump depth than many stim-first formulas.
Is 4g of citrulline enough to feel?
Yes, 4g is a useful evidence-aligned dose and should be noticeable, especially when paired with Nitrosigine® and glycerol. It is not as aggressive as the 6-8g citrulline doses seen in the most pump-focused premium formulas, but it is absolutely not a throwaway amount.
Does the creatine in this formula replace a standalone creatine product?
Not fully. Kill It Reloaded provides 2.5g total creatine from anhydrous, monohydrate, and pyruvate, which is useful, but most evidence-based creatine routines still center on 3-5g daily, usually from plain monohydrate. If full creatine saturation is a priority, add a standalone creatine product.
Why are choline and huperzine A included together?
They are paired to support acetylcholine signaling. Choline bitartrate provides substrate for acetylcholine production, while huperzine A helps slow acetylcholine breakdown, which can make the focus effect feel sharper and more persistent during training.
Will this product cause beta-alanine tingles?
It can. The formula contains 2,000mg beta-alanine, which is enough for many users to notice paresthesia, the harmless tingling sensation often felt in the face, ears, or hands after use. Some people feel it strongly, others barely notice it.
Should beginners use a full scoop?
Usually no. Because this formula contains 329mg caffeine plus huperzine A, most new users should start with half a scoop to assess tolerance, especially if they do not regularly use strong pre-workouts or other stimulant products.
What is GlycerSize® doing in this formula?
GlycerSize® provides glycerol powder for hyperhydration and cell volumization. In real use, that means a fuller muscular feel, more pronounced pumps, and better workout density when hydration status is already adequate.
Can I stack Kill It Reloaded with other caffeinated fat burners or nootropics?
Be cautious. With 329mg total caffeine already onboard, stacking additional stimulant-heavy products can push total intake too high and increase the risk of jitters, rapid heartbeat, or sleep disruption. Non-stimulant stacks are usually the smarter move.
Does Kill It Reloaded need to be cycled?
It does not require strict cycling in the way hormonal products do, but stimulant tolerance is a real practical issue. Many experienced users save it for harder sessions or periodically reduce overall caffeine intake so the 329mg dose keeps feeling effective.
