Cafeine is the solution to energy that we require to lock in just before we start our training routine. We need around 100-300mg of caffeine, depending on the type of energy we require on the specific time. 1 scoops of the fundamental pre gives us 100mg of caffeine, 2 scoops 200mg caffeine and 3 scoops 300mg caffeine. However even if you take 3 scoops, we still made sure we all get a month supply out of the tub.
Further we added L-theanine to work in conjunction with Caffeine. L-theanine picks up where caffeine drops. So this means no jitters or ''crash'' after or throughout your workouts.
This is our favourite and responsible for the vasodilation. We need to get all the blood flow we can possibly get to the muscle to assure better nutrient absorption for muscle growth. 8 grams per serving is the industries optimal dose, however you do want anything between 4-5 grams to 8 grams to benefit most. Citrulline is not just a performance enhancer but also a valuable tool for muscle growth. 3 scoops of the fundamental pre will deliver 8 grams of citrulline malate per serving.
We all know this as the ingredient that makes us itch. However not to worry, to eliminate this; take pre workout that has beta alanine in a dose above 2 grams per serving 10 minutes prior exercise or physical movement.
Beta Alanine helps us get more sets and more reps out and ultimately helps us perform better by pushing and assuring we work progressively load the muscle with more movement or weight.
We want to aim for anything between 2 to 4 grams per serving. The industry norm is around 3 grams. 3 scoops of the fundamental pre will deliver 3 grams per serving.
I’ve been using the Sci-Core EAA and the Pre & Fundamental 3-in-1, both in Granadilla flavor, and I have to say – top tier.
Taste: 10/10. Granadilla is probably the best flavor I’ve had in a supplement. It’s fruity, refreshing, and easy to drink. A lot of brands are too sour or artificial, but this one is spot on.
Mixability: Both dissolve instantly, no foam or grit at the bottom.
Performance: The EAA is perfect intra-workout – helps with endurance and my recovery has been noticeably better, much less muscle soreness the next day. The Pre & Fundamental 3-in-1 is a complete game changer. It’s not just a stim bomb – you get clean energy, laser focus, and great pumps without the jitters or hard crash afterwards.
You can feel that Sci-Core actually focused on quality ingredients that work. Great taste and real impact – highly recommended.
One of the best pre workouts out there! The formula is simple and effective, energy retention and pump is great. The flavour is on point- a definite must try :)
Overall, I’ve noticed a more relaxed mood and a better night’s sleep. I feel more rested when I wake up, refreshed, recharged, and ready to take on the day. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to unwind, improve their sleep routine, and wake up feeling recovered.
One of the better flavors for me. It’s a subtle sweet especially when you are having a hard workout session and extremely thirsty, i find anything too sweet doesn't go down well.
I have never tasted a product this incredible before!! You guys have done it again- 11/10 flavour. My new favourite flavour because all I can say is WOOOW!!!
An easy addition to any workout routine. Unlike a lot of other pre workouts this isn't just a caffeine bomb for your heart and it actually tastes like peach!
The well known, and well specced Fundamental Pre in a great new flavour. A lot of pre-workouts on the market are cursed with taste issues from ingredients that are not even required. The Sci-Core Fundamental Pre has all the necessary ingredients, but none of the unnecessary ones and the taste is way better for it. This new Grape flavour is refreshing and is a great all year round option. Dosages of the essentials is good, and L-Theanine stops that crash that some Pre's leave you with. Also allows you to stage your Pre according to your tolerance, with enough kick from one scoop, but the option to up the Boooooost to 3 scoops for serious users with high caffeine tolerance. A great addition to the already excellent Sci-Core Fundamental Pre range.
Love it.
My Review
Honestly, the taste wasn’t really my favourite, but the performance definitely made up for it.
I’ve been using 2 scoops, usually for my evening training sessions, and the pump has been amazing. My sessions have felt really strong, with good energy and focus, and most importantly, I haven’t experienced that usual crash afterwards.
The biggest positive for me is the sleep. I normally struggle to sleep when I take pre-workout too late in the evening, but even taking 2 scoops, I’ve been sleeping well afterwards.
the energy, pump, performance and lack of crash — especially for evening training — have been really impressive.
Really impressed with the Sci-Core Nutrition Pre! The energy and focus are excellent, especially for my indoor cycling and hard workouts. I feel more driven and focused without that horrible crash afterwards. The Granadilla flavour is also really enjoyable. Definitely a pre-workout I’ll keep coming back to! 💪🔥”
I’ve definitely felt a difference in how energised I feel during the day, especially later in the day when the usual tiredness sets in. I feel like my sleep has been good, quality sleep which in turn leads to feeling alive throughout the day.
Kicks in ,in 5min
Can feel the Beta Alanine tingle
Focus is there
Tingle not extreme
Zero crash
Taste of Granadilla is pure and addictive
Doesn't feel like preservatives
1 scoop is not enough, it's done in 20min

I started using this product because I got a free tub in the Stellies promotion and I have been using it ever since. I can feel the difference it has made, especially in my recovery and overall performance at the gym. Highly recommend!
Title: Real vanilla!
Absolutely love this protein! The Ugandan Vanilla flavor is smooth and subtle because it’s natural and real. It gives me great macros and an amazing taste with zero artificial aftertaste. Creates the best smoothies and makes the ultimate protein pudding when you add it to your yogurt.
Highly recommend!
My second order just love the taste. Must complement you on the turnaround time, i placed my order late afternoon and got it the next morning. Well done!
It’s actually REALLY good. No sloppy, slippy, slimy mouth feel, no bloating, and it tastes delicious.
It has also somehow managed to make an already lazy eater even lazier because it works perfectly with my lifestyle, keeps me fuller for longer, and requires basically no effort from me.
The downside? I will now be perpetually poor because apparently I can no longer live without the Sci-Core Salt AND the protein powder.
At this point, I order both before I buy dog food.
Sorry, Cache. Priorities. 😂
Jirrrr. Just when I thought you've hit a ceiling of peak perfection and you've set a standard you come with the new formula One Weigh.... and now the ceiling is bust and the floor has been established and now I need to make sure that no matter what I am well-stocked. I always going to compare everything against this Protein Powder. Well done peeps. Its fantastic
Ek neem net een kapsule ongeveer 30 minute voor slaaptyd en kan beslis die verskil voel. Ek raak rustig aan die slaap, slaap diep en word soggens uitgerus wakker sonder enige lomerigheid. Die grootste verskil vir my is hoe kalm en rustig ek die volgende dag voel. Ek is baie beïndruk!
Ek gebruik die Hydration Salt nou daagliks en dit het ’n groot verskil gemaak aan hoeveel water ek drink. Ek sukkel gewoonlik om genoeg water in te kry, maar die lekker smaak maak dit baie makliker. Dit is suikervry, verfrissend en ideaal op warm dae of ná ’n oefensessie. Ek voel ook beter gehidreer en drink nou baie meer konsekwent deur die dag. Beslis ’n produk wat ek sal aanhou gebruik!
My sleep has been way better since starting. I also feel less stressed at the moment and less brain fog as well. Which helps a lot with studying after work and gym
I must say I do feel a difference, I have more energy and I am recovering a bit faster then usual. My sleep has also improved and I will recommend it to any one.
As a runner, I can feel I have a bit more in the tank.
I take 3 before bed and found that works great for me.
Best creatine on the market! With 200 servings, this offers incredible value for money and lasts for months. It mixes so easy with any liquids. Highly recommend
