Red, White, and Boom!
Since we enjoyed ‘Merica Labz original Red, White and Boom pre-workout so much, we felt it necessary to purchase the new 2018 version for review. The brand didn’t change too much for the updated supplement, keeping everything the same but swapping out DMHA and synephrine for 2g of choline, 3g of tyrosine, and 250mg of TeaCrine.
‘Merica Labz original Red, White and Boom actually delivered quite the experience, with a smooth, but powerful combination of energy, focus, endurance, and a bit of pump. The reformulated edition is quite similar to that, although it does have a few features that make it a different, but equally impressive experience.
Review
The biggest highlights of the new Red, White and Boom for us is the intensity of the energy and focus. ‘Merica Labz did say it “gives you even more focus”, and that couldn’t be truer. Instead of gradually coming over you like the original, the reformulated pre-workout kicks in a bit harder and makes for a strong start to your workout.
It is the energy that is felt the most, but once you get into the gym and get working, you will notice that improved mental focus and drive a lot better. The two stimulating effects work incredibly well together and best of all they don’t really fade. On all of the occasions we tried Red, White and Boom, it sustained a good level of energy and focus from start to finish, keeping you energized and focused on the task at hand.
On top of the energy and focus, ‘Merica Labz new Red, White & Boom does also provide a noticeable performance and endurance improvement. When pushing through those typically more exhausting sets, it’s hard not to notice a bit more comfort and controlled ability to push for another rep or two. The effect plays in nicely with the energy and focus, creating a sometimes unstoppable and very enjoyable feeling.
Summary
Overall, ‘Merica Labz has really managed to carry on the Red, White and Boom reputation, which is something we don’t normally expect when strong ingredients like DMHA are removed from supplements. It does feel like a different kind of pre-workout featuring a slightly different balance of effects, but all together the experience is just as intense.
It is worth mentioning that we didn’t notice much improvement with muscle pumps when using Red, White and Boom, although that is what ‘Merica Labz other pre-workout, Stars ‘N Pipes is for. Where Red, White and Boom is all about energy and focus, Stars ‘N Pipes takes care of pumps, which is something we found out first hand back when the pair initially launched.
