Killer energy with solid citrulline, beta-alanine, and betaine to back it up.
Alpha Lion Supreme Preworkout is a high-stim beast that focuses on real performance. It cranks up your drive, boosts blood flow, and helps you push harder without crashing. This isn't for newbies or just pump chasers – it's stim-heavy with solid support to back it up.
The main pump comes from 7,000mg L-citrulline malate (2:1). That's about 4.7g of straight L-citrulline plus malate, solid for nitric oxide and pumps, though it's not quite the 6-8g pure citrulline sweet spot. Still, way better than the weak 3-4g in most pre's. You'll notice better veins, fuller muscles, and easier nutrient delivery during high-volume sets.
Beta-alanine at 3,500mg is spot on – that's the dose where it really shines. It builds up carnosine in your muscles to fight off that acid burn during tough reps, letting you grind out more before tapping out. Solid choice here. Betaine anhydrous at 2,500mg hits the mark too, helping with power, endurance, and keeping cells hydrated.
Stims wise, it's 300mg caffeine anhydrous plus 100mg Infinergy™ dicaffeine malate (about 75mg more caffeine) for 375mg total. Quick kick from anhydrous, longer burn from dicaffeine. Adding 150mg L-theanine is clutch – studies show it teams up with caffeine for better focus without the jitters.
Alpha Lion Supreme by Alpha Lion contains 12.5mg Niacin, a standard dose for training performance and pump.
Key Highlights
- 7,000mg L-Citrulline Malate (2:1) – a real dose that beats the weak 3-4g stuff out there. It ramps up nitric oxide via arginine, giving you fuller pumps, popping veins, and better oxygen and nutrient flow to your muscles during workouts.
- 3,500mg Beta-Alanine – right in the sweet spot for boosting muscle carnosine. That helps buffer the acid buildup in tough sets, so that burning feeling doesn't shut you down as quick.
- 2,500mg Betaine Anhydrous – the exact dose that makes sense for strength and power. Studies back 2.5g for better output, endurance, and cell hydration – one of the best parts of this formula.
- 375mg Total Caffeine – 300mg anhydrous for fast energy, plus 75mg from Infinergy™ dicaffeine malate for a smoother, longer ride than basic caffeine pre's.
- 150mg L-Theanine – pairs great with high caffeine. Research shows it helps with attention and cuts distractions, perfect for keeping you locked in on heavy stim days.
- 200mg N,N-Dimethylphenethylamine Citrate – amps up the intensity, making you feel more urgent and aggressive right away. That's why this feels stronger than just caffeine alone.
- 75mg N-Methyl Tyramine HCl – boosts the stim side for that high-alert vibe. It's why this is for experienced folks, not casual gym days.
- 1,000mg Taurine – a hefty dose for hydration and workout feel. In a stim-heavy mix, it smooths things out so energy feels useful, not edgy.

Who Is This For?
- Seasoned lifters chasing hypertrophy with pumps and drive for long sessions. 7g citrulline malate, 3.5g beta-alanine, 2.5g betaine add real support, while 375mg caffeine and stims make it aggressive.
- High-volume bodybuilders in 8-20 rep land where burn kills sets. 3,500mg beta-alanine fights that, citrulline-taurine-betaine keep things full and strong across sets.
- Stim vets bored of 200mg pre's. 300mg anhydrous, 75mg from Infinergy™, DMPEA citrate, N-methyl tyramine bring real urgency and focus.
- Folks training before brain work needing energy without scatter. Caffeine with 150mg L-theanine locks you in better than caffeine solo.
- Lifters in heavy phases or leg days needing late-session help. Beta-alanine and betaine target fatigue and capacity over just hype.
- People who read labels and want real doses. Clear ergogenics make this easy to trust vs. mystery blends.
How to Use
If new to this or not stim-tolerant, start with half scoop to test. Full scoop packs 375mg caffeine plus other stims – not smart to dive in if sensitive. Take 20-30 minutes pre-workout; matches caffeine onset and lets formula settle.
Mix 1 scoop in 10-14 oz cold water for good flavor and mix. More water tones down sweetness and bite; less makes it punchier. Fasted hits harder; light meal smooths if needed. Don't stack with energy drinks or strong stims – caffeine's already high.
Use on training days, but stick with it for beta-alanine's carnosine buildup – that's the endurance payoff. If you're a stim junkie, take breaks to reset tolerance. Store sealed in cool, dry spot to avoid clumps.
What to Expect
0-10 minutes: Taste hits, alertness starts, formula wakes up. Sensitive folks might feel early stim edge. 10-20 minutes: Caffeine kicks in, beta-alanine tingles often appear, mind gets urgent and focused. 20-40 minutes: Peak time – energy full on, focus sharp, citrulline pumps build with volume.
40-90 minutes: Stays strong, doesn't fade quick. Caffeine total, Infinergy™, taurine, betaine keep later sets supported. Days 1-7: Immediate effects there, but beta-alanine just starting. Weeks 2-4: Carnosine builds, hard reps feel easier, especially where burn limits you.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much caffeine is in Alpha Lion Supreme Preworkout?
A full scoop delivers 375mg total caffeine. That comes from 300mg caffeine anhydrous plus 100mg Infinergy™ dicaffeine malate, which yields about 75mg caffeine and contributes to a slightly more sustained energy curve.
Is Alpha Lion Supreme Preworkout a beginner-friendly pre-workout?
No. This is an advanced high-stim formula because it combines 375mg total caffeine with 200mg N,N-dimethylphenethylamine citrate and 75mg N-methyl tyramine HCl. New users should either avoid it or begin with 1/2 scoop only to assess tolerance.
Does this formula have a real pump dose or is it mostly stimulants?
It has a legitimate pump and performance base. You get 7,000mg L-citrulline malate, 3,500mg beta-alanine, 2,500mg betaine anhydrous, 1,000mg taurine, and 100mg S7™, which is much more substantial than stim-only formulas that barely support blood flow or endurance.
Is the beta-alanine dose in this product clinically relevant?
Yes. Beta-alanine is dosed at 3,500mg, which is right in the range commonly used in research for increasing muscle carnosine over time. That matters for buffering fatigue-related acidity and improving repeated high-intensity efforts.
What does Infinergy™ add compared with regular caffeine?
Infinergy™ is dicaffeine malate, a bonded form that contributes caffeine with malic acid. In practice, it is used to complement the faster onset of caffeine anhydrous and help the stimulant experience feel a bit more extended rather than peaking and dropping as abruptly.
Will this pre-workout make me tingle?
Probably. The 3,500mg beta-alanine dose is high enough that many users will notice paresthesia—the harmless tingling sensation often felt in the face, ears, or hands. That sensation is normal and not the main performance mechanism of beta-alanine.
Can I stack this with a fat burner or energy drink?
Usually not a good idea. At 375mg total caffeine plus the additional stimulant compounds, stacking this with other stimulants can quickly push the experience into excessive territory with more risk of jitters, elevated heart rate, and sleep disruption.
When should I take Alpha Lion Supreme Preworkout?
Take it about 20-30 minutes before training. That gives the caffeine and focus ingredients time to come online before your first working sets while still aligning the pump ingredients with the start of the session.
Does AstraGin® actually make sense in this formula?
Yes, more than in many formulas. Manufacturer data specifically suggests AstraGin® can improve the transport of citrulline and beta-alanine, and those are two of the core performance ingredients here.
How does this compare with average pre-workouts on the market?
It is significantly more aggressive on the stimulant side and better than average on the performance side. Many mainstream pre-workouts live around 200-300mg caffeine with underdosed pump ingredients; this one gives you 375mg total caffeine, plus extra stimulants, while still delivering meaningful doses of citrulline malate, beta-alanine, and betaine.
