A lot of pre-workouts give you a hard rush, a tingling face, and a crash an hour later. Dymatize Energyze pre-workout is built the other way round. It has a moderate dose of caffeine, no beta-alanine, and every ingredient is listed with its exact amount, so you know what you are drinking.
This guide covers what is in a scoop, how to take it, and how to fit it around the rest of your supplements.
What is in one scoop of Energyze
| Ingredient | Amount per scoop | What it is there for |
|---|---|---|
| Caffeine (from green coffee berry extract) | 150mg | Energy and alertness |
| L-Theanine | 50mg | Smoother focus alongside the caffeine |
| L-Tyrosine | 500mg | Mental focus |
| L-Citrulline | 4g | Muscle fuel during training |
| BCAAs (2:1:1) | 5g (2.5g leucine, 1.25g isoleucine, 1.25g valine) | Muscle protein synthesis |
| Carbohydrate | Under 1g, no sugar |
There is no proprietary blend, so none of these doses is hidden. Each tub has 30 servings, in Strawberry Lemonade, Peach Mango or Lemon Lime.
Why there is no tingle
Many pre-workouts include beta-alanine, which causes a harmless pins-and-needles feeling on the face and hands. Some people like it as a signal that the drink has kicked in. Plenty of people hate it. Energyze leaves beta-alanine out completely, so you won't get the itch.
The caffeine is paired with L-theanine, an amino acid found in tea. People often take the two together for a calmer, more even feel than caffeine alone.
How to take Dymatize Energyze
- Add one scoop to 240 ml of cold water.
- Shake or stir until it is fully mixed.
- Drink it 15 to 30 minutes before you start training.
If you have never used a pre-workout, try half a scoop on your first day to see how you react to the caffeine. Don't take more than one scoop a day.
When to take it, and when to skip it
Energyze works best before morning, afternoon or early evening sessions. If you train late at night, think twice. Caffeine can stay in your system for several hours and may keep you awake.
Skip your usual coffee, tea or energy drink on days you use Energyze. The label is clear that it should not be combined with other caffeine sources, and 150mg on top of two cups of coffee is more than most people need before a workout.
Who should not use it
Energyze is meant for healthy adults over 18. Avoid it if you are sensitive to caffeine. If you are pregnant or nursing, have a medical condition, or take any medication, speak to your doctor before using it.
Using Energyze with your protein
The simplest routine is Energyze before training and a protein shake after it. If you are watching calories, Dymatize ISO 100 adds 25g of protein at 119 kcal a scoop. If you want a fuller shake, Dymatize Elite Whey gives the same 25g of protein for a lower price per tub. Our ISO 100 vs Elite Whey comparison explains the difference in detail.
Frequently asked questions
Can I take Energyze on an empty stomach?
Many people do, especially for morning workouts. If caffeine on an empty stomach makes you feel queasy, have a light snack an hour before.
Will Energyze make me crash?
With 150mg of caffeine and no sugar, the drop afterwards is usually milder than with high-stimulant formulas. How you feel still depends on your sleep, food and caffeine tolerance.
Can I take Energyze on rest days?
There is little reason to. It is designed to be taken before training.
Is Dymatize Energyze banned-substance tested?
Yes, Energyze is banned-substance tested, which matters if you compete in a tested sport.
