Who it's For:
Most intra-workout products are either a BCAA drink or a pre-workout. This is neither. The Workout Range Intra-Workout is a session-spanning formula — amino acids to prevent muscle breakdown, creatine to sustain phosphocreatine resynthesis, carbohydrates for glycogen mid-session, beta-alanine for fatigue buffering, citrulline and arginine for blood flow, beetroot nitrate for oxygen efficiency, and a full B vitamin complex. Everything your muscles need during the work, not just before or after it.
Pre-workout supplements prime your nervous system. Post-workout supplements support recovery. But during a 60–90 minute high-intensity session, your body is actively burning phosphocreatine, depleting glycogen, accumulating hydrogen ions (fatigue), and breaking down muscle tissue for fuel if amino acid availability drops. Most people address the hour before and the hour after and ignore the hour during.
The research is clear on each mechanism here: beta-alanine supplementation significantly delays muscle fatigue during high-intensity exercise by buffering hydrogen ion accumulation; citrulline improves oxygen delivery via nitric oxide pathways; mid-session carbohydrates maintain performance in sessions lasting over 60 minutes. This formula stacks all three alongside creatine and amino acids for a comprehensive intra-session approach.
MyProtein THE Pre-Workout — pre-workout, not intra. Designed for the 30 minutes before training, not the session itself. Heavy on caffeine and stimulants that peak before your warm-up is over. No creatine blend, no mid-session carbohydrates, no intra-workout amino acid base. A different product for a different purpose.
Applied Nutrition ABE — stimulant-heavy, not intra. ABE is a popular pre-workout but heavy on caffeine and stimulants — not appropriate for intra-session use. No creatine, no session-sustaining carbohydrates. Not halal certified.
Bulk Pre-Workout — similar category mismatch. Bulk's pre-workout is a solid stimulant-based product but again designed for pre-session use, not intra. No halal certification, no mid-session carbohydrate support.

Mix 1 serving with 400–500ml cold water and sip throughout your training session. Start drinking 10–15 minutes into your warm-up and finish by your last working set. The formula is designed for sustained delivery during the session, not as a pre-workout shot. Contains caffeine — avoid for evening sessions or if caffeine-sensitive.
Use BCAA Amino Acids instead if you want a stimulant-free intra-workout option without caffeine. Follow every session with Post-Workout Chocolate for carbohydrate replenishment and multi-source protein recovery. Pair daily with Creatine Monohydrate — this formula already contains a creatine blend, so take the standalone creatine on rest days to maintain saturation.

Pre-workouts prime your nervous system — caffeine, stimulants and nootropics taken 20–30 minutes before training to increase focus, energy and motivation at the start of the session. Intra-workouts sustain performance during the session — amino acids, creatine, carbohydrates and endurance compounds consumed during training to prevent fatigue, maintain power output, and reduce muscle catabolism. They solve different problems at different times. Many serious athletes use a modest pre-workout stimulant and then transition to an intra-workout formula during the session itself.
Yes — beta-alanine causes a harmless tingling sensation called paraesthesia in some people, particularly at higher doses. This is a pharmacological effect of beta-alanine binding to skin nerve receptors and is completely benign. It typically fades with consistent daily use as tolerance builds. Some people find it energising; others find it distracting. Starting with half a serving allows you to assess your individual response.
Yes — the full formula. Every ingredient and the manufacturing facility are halal certified. Most pre/intra-workout products in the UK — including MyProtein, Applied Nutrition and Bulk — do not carry halal certification on their training formulas.
Yes — the creatine blend in this formula covers your intra-session creatine dose. Taking Creatine Monohydrate separately on rest days maintains muscle creatine saturation on non-training days, which is when this formula isn't used. The combined approach gives you full daily creatine coverage without double-dosing on training days.
Food supplements should not replace a varied diet or healthy lifestyle. Contains caffeine — not recommended for those sensitive to caffeine, children, or during pregnancy. Consult your GP before use if managing a diagnosed health condition.
