I have been using Chaparrel Labs Preform for around a month now thanks to Bodybuilding Warehouse providing me with a tub to trial and review and I must say I am very impressed. I had the choice of fruit punch or sour apple flavour and chose the apple one due to not having many supplements with this type of flavouring and it didn’t disappoint infact its pretty tasty reminding me of the old school apple pick and mix sour strips that you used to get on the way home from school with left over lunch money .

Looking at the ingredients list everything is formulated in order to make sure that you have great sessions time and time again with Creatine for the added strength, Caffeine and Geranium extract for the focus factor, beta alanine in order to increase endurance alongside arginine for the pump effect in the gym which I found very effective veins were popping out all over the place once I was pumped up.

The creatine included is actually bonded with magnesium ‘creatine magnesium chelate’ which is shown to absorb at higher rates than your standard monohydrate with no need to have the normal loading phase most people seem to require with the monohydrate form

It also includes the active ingredient that is in Fenugreek ‘4-hydroxyisoleucine’  which has been known to increase libido (who can complain there?!) and also promote good control and healthy blood glucose levels meaning that you wont be crashing during your workouts due to low glucose levels.

Lastly one of the main and most important ingredients I will talk about is the ATP include in the product,  which is shown to increase blood flow and vasodilation enhancing the amount of quality nutrients that get delivered to the muscles to promote the progression and growth throughout the sessions and during the recovery phase straight after a session. Some studies have even shown increased ATP levels can even increase metabolic rate but as to how much and how effective this is I am very sceptical.

Out of all the preworkout products I have tried I would say that PreForm is amongst one of the best, I would put it slightly higher than the popular Jack3D product, around the same effectiveness as BPI’s 1MR (although it is cheaper to buy which is always a plus) and also up there with the levels of Anabolic Design’s Stampede but not quite as good therefore overall I would give this product a 7/10 with maybe an addition of L-Carnitine and Citruline Malate to enhance pump, contraction and fat usage throughout the workout.
