6g Citrulline, 3.2g Beta-Alanine, Only 100mg Caffeine
Bucked Up 100 Series is a chill pre-workout that keeps the good parts but dials back the stims. It doesn't fake it with tons of caffeine. Instead, it hits you with real doses for pumps and stamina, plus a easy 100mg caffeine to get you going without overdoing it. If you want to crush your workout, stay focused, and actually sleep later, this is way smarter than those heavy stim bombs.
At the heart is 6,000mg of Citrulline Malate 2:1. That's a solid dose backed by studies. Citrulline turns into arginine better than taking arginine straight, which ramps up nitric oxide for better blood flow. In the gym, that means bigger pumps and more nutrients getting to your muscles. The malate part helps with energy production too. This isn't some weak amount – it really delivers.
You've got 3,200mg Beta-Alanine, the real deal for building up carnosine in your muscles. Carnosine helps buffer acid that builds up and makes you burn out during tough sets. It's best for intense stuff lasting a minute to ten, like high-rep lifting or conditioning circuits. This works best when you take it every day to load up.
For that mental edge, there's 200mg AlphaSize® Alpha GPC. This provides choline to make acetylcholine, which helps with focus and muscle control. 200mg is a good amount to sharpen things up without going overboard; it makes your mind-muscle link feel stronger.
Key Highlights
- 6,000mg Citrulline Malate 2:1 – this dose really pumps you up. Citrulline boosts arginine and nitric oxide better than plain arginine, giving you better blood flow and that full, hard muscle feel during lifts.
- 3,200mg Beta-Alanine – a full-on dose, not just for show. This is what you need daily to build carnosine in muscles, buffering acid so you can push through high reps without crashing early.
- 100mg Caffeine Anhydrous – just enough to fire you up without the jitters. For a lot of people, this hits the spot for energy without feeling wiped out later.
- 200mg AlphaSize® Alpha GPC – a quality choline source for better focus and muscle connection. It boosts acetylcholine, helping you stay locked in and make reps count.
- Full-disclosure label – everything's listed out with exact doses. In a world of hidden blends, this lets you check it against real info, not hype.
- Lower caffeine, but still built for performance – focuses on pumps, stamina, and focus instead of dumping it all on stims. Way better for everyday use and keeping your caffeine in check.
- Synephrine HCl at 40mg – adds a nice kick to the low-stim vibe. Makes the energy feel stronger than just the caffeine alone.
- AstraGin® and ActiGin® thrown in – these are cool add-ons for a modern mix. AstraGin® helps absorb nutrients better, and ActiGin® supports your output in this straightforward formula.
Who Is This For?
- Guys building muscle with volume training who want huge pumps, more reps, and clean energy without killing caffeine tolerance. 6g citrulline malate and 3.2g beta-alanine nail blood flow and fatigue for those sessions.
- Morning warriors who sip coffee and don't want pre's pushing caffeine too high. 100mg gives a nice boost while leaving room for the day's intake.
- After-work trainers needing workout help without ruining sleep. Keeps pumps and stamina solid with sleep-friendly stims.
- Folks who get jittery from stims but like pre-workout feels. Low caffeine with AlphaSize® Alpha GPC keeps it smooth and focused.
- Conditioning fans doing intervals, circuits, or sprints. 3.2g beta-alanine helps buffer acid in that 1-10 minute zone.
- Everyday lifters chasing better form and feel over max hype. AlphaSize® Alpha GPC, citrulline malate, and light caffeine make training click.
How to Use
Stir 1 scoop into 8–12 oz cold water and down it 20–30 minutes pre-workout. Caffeine hits fast, and pumps need that lead time. If stims bug you, try half first – especially with caffeine plus 40mg synephrine HCl. Shaker helps it mix smooth; cold water tastes better. Empty stomach for quicker kick, or eat light an hour before if stims hit hard. Skip stacking with other stim stuff unless you're tracking totals. Goes well with creatine, intra carbs, or electrolytes. Use daily for beta-alanine benefits, but take breaks to keep caffeine fresh. Store sealed and dry to keep it clumpless.
What to Expect
Minutes 0–10: mixes easy, no gut bomb from extras like creatine. Minutes 10–20: caffeine starts working, tingles possible from beta-alanine if you're sensitive – totally normal at 3.2g. Minutes 20–40: best zone with sharp focus, steady energy, and pumps building from citrulline. Minutes 40–90: energy stays even, not the wild ups and downs of high-stims. Days 1–7: feel the quick hits from energy, focus, and pumps. Weeks 2–4: beta-alanine shines as carnosine builds, making tough sets easier to handle.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much caffeine is in Bucked Up 100 Series?
Each 1-scoop serving provides 100mg of caffeine anhydrous. That is substantially lower than most mainstream pre-workouts, which often land in the 200–350mg range, making this a better fit for stim-sensitive users, evening training, or anyone already getting caffeine from coffee.
Is Bucked Up 100 Series still effective with only 100mg caffeine?
Yes, because the formula does not rely on caffeine alone to do all the work. It includes 6,000mg citrulline malate for pump and blood flow, 3,200mg beta-alanine for carnosine loading and fatigue resistance, and 200mg AlphaSize® Alpha GPC for focus support.
Will this give me the beta-alanine tingles?
Probably, especially if you are new to beta-alanine. The formula contains 3.2g, which is the standard clinical dose, and that amount commonly produces temporary tingling or flushing known as paresthesia; it is harmless and usually fades as the session gets going.
Is the 6g citrulline malate dose actually good?
Yes. 6g citrulline malate is a strong pre-workout dose and meaningfully better than the 3–4g range often seen in average formulas. It supports nitric oxide production and vasodilation, which is why this product can still deliver a real performance feel without high caffeine.
Can I stack Bucked Up 100 Series with creatine?
Absolutely, and it makes sense to do so because this formula is creatine-free. Adding 3–5g of standalone creatine monohydrate daily complements the beta-alanine and citrulline by supporting phosphocreatine regeneration and repeated high-output performance.
Is this a good pre-workout for beginners?
For many beginners, yes. The lower 100mg caffeine dose is easier to tolerate than high-stim formulas, but because it also contains synephrine HCl and full-dose beta-alanine, new users should still start with half a scoop to assess response.
How does this compare to regular higher-stim pre-workouts?
The main difference is the stimulant burden, not the basic performance intent. Bucked Up 100 Series gives you meaningful pump and endurance support with a much more controlled caffeine dose, so it feels smoother and is often easier to recover from and sleep after.
Do I need to take this every day for full benefits?
If you want the full payoff from beta-alanine, consistency matters more than timing perfection. Beta-alanine works by gradually increasing muscle carnosine over weeks, so regular use is more effective than taking it only once in a while.
What does AlphaSize® Alpha GPC do in this formula?
AlphaSize® Alpha GPC provides choline, a precursor used to make acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in focus and muscle contraction signaling. At 200mg, it adds a clean focus component that pairs well with the lower caffeine level.
Is this formula fully transparent?
Yes. There are no proprietary blends, so every active ingredient and every dose is printed on the label. That makes it much easier to judge the formula honestly against clinical research and category standards.
