(Also Available in Caffeine-Free Version.)
Fast Twitch is the first formula specifically engineered to fuel fast twitch (type II) muscle fibers for larger muscular power and gains. Fast Twitch helps increase post workout intensity, while improving muscular repair. The more intense the workout, the faster Fast Twitch can help. With Fast Twitch, you may run out of time before you run out muscle energy. Fueling type II fibers excels explosive power and speed. This means more sets, reps and weight lifted. Plus, type II fibers have greater possibility for overall muscle hypertrophy (growth).*
Benefits of Using Fast Twitch™:
- Strength, Power and Velocity: Fueling type II fibers increases explosive power and speed. This translates into more sets, reps and weight lifted.*
- Endo-Thermogenic: Fast Twitch enables muscles to produce more power, resulting in greater heat output. This heat production is endo-thermogenic. Increased body heat, plus enhanced oxygen consumption after harder workouts boosts metabolism. Raising the metabolic rate can enhance calorie burning.*
- Jump Start Recovery: Cortisol, the body's primary stress hormone, naturally rises after workouts. Elevated cortisol can be catabolic to muscle tissue. Fast Twitch contains phosphatidylserine (SerinAid), which may help blunt exercise induced cortisol rise after workouts.*
- Enhanced Creatine Production: Creatine GCC helps support the body's own creatine production. New Kre-Alkalyn further advances creatine technology. Together, they need no loading, and are pH balanced to deliver massive creatine results.*
- Get Pumped, Feel Great, Lift Big: Fast Twitch's nitric oxide amplifiers pump you up, and speed nutrients to hungry muscles. S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) production, highly regarded for enhancing mood and joint support. Same, with other nutrients, help "get your mind right" for monster workouts.*
Take muscle-expanding pumps to the next level with Fast Twitch™, an energizing pre-workout drink designed to fuel fast twitch (type II) fibers for greater muscular explosiveness and size, while giving users unparalleled strength & stamina. Fast Twitch fuels intense, fast twitch contracting workouts in two ways: by boosting nitric oxide (NO) levels and encouraging formation of the high-energy molecule creatine phosphate. Our NitroAmp™ dual action nitric oxide enhancing system helps to create a quick surge in NO levels for total body pumps to help you protect lean muscle mass and help stimulate muscle growth. Fast Twitch helps delay fatigue and has an endo-thermogenic effect which maximizes fat burning after your tough workouts. Awesome muscular explosiveness and size, formerly reserved for the genetically gifted, is the goal of Fast Twitch. Fast Twitch also helps increase pre-workout intensity with extreme, razor sharp mental focus, allowing you to zone-in and have the best training session possible.*
Fast Twitch enables muscles to produce more power, resulting in greater heat output. This heat production is endo-thermogenic. Increased body heat, plus enhanced oxygen consumption after hard workouts, boosts metabolism. This after-burn (from more intense workouts) burns more body fat than less intense workouts.*
Creatine GCC, first used in Muscle Milk, helps support the body's own creatine production. New Kre-Alkalyn further advances creatine technology. Together, they need no loading, and are pH balanced to deliver massive creatine results. Fast Twitch promotes internal S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) production, highly regarded for enhancing mood and joint support. SAMe, with other nutrients, help "get your mind right" for monster workouts. Nitric oxide amplifiers pump you up, and speed nutrients to hungry muscles.*
Best Ways to Use Fast Twitch™
- Before: 30-45 minutes prior to your training, take Fast Twitch to increase explosiveness and endurance regardless of the intensity of your workout.*
- During: For long duration workouts (2 hours or more), sip Fast Twitch throughout to maintain more punch towards the end of any training session.*
- After: Don't Twitch. The ride is over.

linedriver465 says:
Flavor: Knock-Out Orange
Mixiblity: 9.75/10
Poured one 23g packet into 20oz bottle of water and shook vigorously for 12 seconds. No clumping or grains; only a very slight film on the side of the water bottle, but nothing major. A small added swish of water did the trick.
Taste: 9/10
Not overly sweet or bitter, which is kinda nice compared to some of the orange flavored supps I’ve had. I wouldn’t say it was like a creamsicle but it definitely went down smooth and was a pleasure to drink. No strong chemical or artificial aftertaste.
Effectiveness: 8/10
I was a little disappointed with my workout after taking Fast Twitch pre-workout before my Upper A workout. The 200mg of caffeine definitely gave me an inital mental and energy boost, but the pump and focus wasn’t all that great. I was ready to kill it in the gym, but for some reason my body wasn’t agreeing with me. I did get a decent pump with bicep curls and CGBP, but my weak start in OHP, which turned into push press really hampered the focus of my workout
Value: 9/10
At $0.75 per serving, this is a pretty good price for a pre-workout supp with its solid ingredient list (ie kre-alkalyn, betaine anhydrous, arginine, etc…). If the effects were a little stronger today, I probably would give it a 9.25 or 9.5.
Overall: 8.75/10
Awesome mixibility, good taste, and a great value for a supp with such solid ingredients from a reputable company. However, my workout was disappointing, especially in the pump and focus department. Maybe if I had another sample, I could try it for another workout because we all have off days, regardless of how solid pre-workout nutrition is. Nevertheless, if you’re a fan of CytoSport or want to try a new pre-workout supp without 1,3 dim, considering giving it a run.
