6g Citrulline, AlphaSize® Focus, Moderate-Stim Bucked Up Energy

Bucked Up Muscle RUB is basically a moderate-stim pre-workout that boosts blood flow, energy, and focus during training. The setup is simple and it works. No hiding doses in a prop blend – everything's listed out so you can see what's really in it. The main players are 6,000mg citrulline malate for pumps and flow, 200mg caffeine anhydrous for quick energy, 200mg AlphaSize® for sharp focus, and 2,000mg beta-alanine to fight fatigue over time.

The big win is that 6g citrulline malate. Your body turns citrulline into arginine, which ramps up nitric oxide. Nitric oxide widens blood vessels, so more blood gets to your muscles. You'll notice fuller pumps, better oxygen delivery, and less of that flat feeling halfway through your workout. At 6g, it's a dose that actually delivers for experienced users.

Beta-alanine at 2,000mg is solid, but it's not the full research dose alone. Studies show 3.2-6.4g daily works best by boosting carnosine in muscles. Carnosine fights the acid buildup that causes burn during intense reps, helping you push longer. 2g helps build toward that, but for max results, you'd want more from food or another supp with consistent use.

Caffeine anhydrous at 200mg keeps it in the moderate-stim zone. It's enough to wake you up, cut how hard the workout feels, and amp your drive without

Key Highlights

  • 6,000mg Citrulline Malate – this is the star here and a real reason to grab it. At this level, you'll feel the vasodilation kick in with stronger pumps and better blood flow to muscles, way better than those weak 2-3g doses that don't do much.
  • 200mg Caffeine Anhydrous – a solid mid-level stim hit that ramps up alertness, motivation, and how intense your workout feels, without jumping into crash territory. For a lot of folks, this is the perfect balance – not too weak, not overkill.
  • 200mg AlphaSize® – this trademarked alpha-GPC from Chemi Nutra adds a smart edge for focus and neuromuscular vibes. You'll notice cleaner concentration and better connection to your reps, not just random jitters.
  • 2,000mg Beta-Alanine – not a full clinical dose by itself, but still useful if you take it regularly. It's the key to building carnosine in muscles, which buffers that burn during back-to-back high-intensity sets.
  • No Proprietary Blend – everything's out in the open with doses listed. That's huge because you can check it against real research instead of trusting some mystery mix.
  • 100mcg Vitamin B12 as Methylcobalamin – they went with the good methyl form, not cheap stuff. You won't feel it right away, but it helps with energy metabolism and fits the overall workout support.
  • 100mg Himalayan Rock Salt – a nice touch for pump and staying hydrated. Sodium keeps fluids balanced and muscles working, especially when you're sweating hard – even a bit helps the pre-workout hit better.
  • Taurine Included for Cellular Support – taurine helps with fluid regulation and calcium signals in muscles and heart. At 100mg it's light compared to studies, but it ties into the hydration and performance angle.

Who Is This For?

  • Intermediate bodybuilders on high-volume push/pull/legs who dig pump and muscle feel as much as energy. 6g citrulline malate boosts flow for hypertrophy, 200mg AlphaSize® sharpens connection in controlled reps.
  • Lifters wanting real pre-workout kick without extreme stims. 200mg caffeine feels performance-ready but chill for consistent trainers avoiding the overamped high of 350mg+.
  • Cross-trainers in intervals, sleds, circuits, or finishers where fatigue stacks up. Beta-alanine aids carnosine for buffering, caffeine drops perceived effort when it hurts.
  • Morning or midday gym rats needing energy and drive but normal life after. Gives solid stim push with AlphaSize® nootropic help over pure caffeine.
  • Bucked Up fans after the complete formula, not stripped ones missing methylcobalamin B12, AlphaSize®, Himalayan rock salt, and deer antler velvet extract. If full label matters, this is it.
  • Athletes tired of weak pump supps with big talk. 6,000mg citrulline malate is the real deal for noticeable gym pumps and flow.

How to Use

Take one serving 20-30 minutes pre-training for best timing. New to pre-workouts, stim-sensitive, or back after layoff? Start half to check tolerance on that 200mg caffeine. Shake it in cold water – more water mellows flavor and makes it easy to down fast. Empty stomach speeds up the feel, but light food smooths if stims spike you. Don't mix with other stim heavies unless tracking caffeine from coffee, drinks, or burners. Stacks great with creatine and protein since those aren't maxed here. Daily use boosts beta-alanine – carnosine needs consistency. No forced cycles, but stim breaks keep sensitivity fresh. Store cool, dry, sealed.

What to Expect

Minutes 0-10: not much yet, just the mental boost of taking it and starting warm-ups. Minutes 10-20: 200mg caffeine usually hits with better alertness and mindset; some get beta-alanine tingles early. Minutes 20-40: prime time – caffeine, AlphaSize®, and citrulline team up for sharp focus and full pumps as intensity builds. Minutes 40-90: it sustains steady, holding up the session's middle and end without early peaks. Days 1-7: acute stuff like energy and flow hits first. Weeks 2-4: regular use builds beta-alanine's carnosine edge, but 2g is more support than full load alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much caffeine is in Bucked Up | Muscle RUB?

Each full serving provides 200mg caffeine anhydrous. That places it in the moderate-stim range: enough to feel distinctly performance-oriented for most users, but not in the ultra-high-stim territory of 300-400mg pre-workouts.

Is the 6,000mg citrulline malate dose actually strong enough to notice?

Yes. Six grams is a serious dose for a pre-workout pump ingredient and is one of the strongest parts of this formula. Citrulline supports nitric oxide production through the arginine pathway, which is why users typically notice better pumps, improved blood flow, and less flatness during training.

Is the 2,000mg beta-alanine dose clinically dosed?

Not fully on its own. The research-backed daily range is usually 3,200-6,400mg, so 2g is best described as a supportive partial dose. It can still contribute over time, but users wanting fully research-aligned carnosine loading would need additional daily beta-alanine from another source or a broader stack.

What does AlphaSize® do in this formula?

AlphaSize® is a trademarked alpha-GPC ingredient used to support focus, attention, and neuromuscular signaling through acetylcholine-related pathways. In practical terms, it helps make the energy from caffeine feel more directed and training-specific rather than just stimulatory.

Is this better for pump or for energy?

It does both, but the formula’s biggest strength is the combination of meaningful pump support and moderate energy. The 6g citrulline malate is the physical-performance anchor, while 200mg caffeine and 200mg AlphaSize® provide the mental and stimulant side.

Can I stack this with creatine?

Yes, and that is one of the smartest ways to round out the formula. This product covers pump, energy, and focus well, while standalone creatine monohydrate adds the well-established phosphocreatine and ATP regeneration support that is not built into this label.

Will this make me tingle?

Possibly. Beta-alanine can produce a harmless tingling sensation called paresthesia, especially when taken on a relatively empty stomach. At 2,000mg, some users will notice it and others will not, depending on sensitivity.

Is this a good beginner pre-workout?

It can be, but not as a blind full-serving first use. Because it contains 200mg caffeine and multiple active performance ingredients, beginners should start with a half serving to assess tolerance before deciding whether the full amount is appropriate.

How does this compare to the retailer version mentioned in the competitive data?

The competitive landscape indicates that some retailer listings use a different formula missing Vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin, AlphaSize®, Himalayan pink salt, and deer antler velvet extract. This version is the more complete formula and gives you the full focus-support and brand-signature profile intended by the label provided here.

Should I take Bucked Up | Muscle RUB every day or only on workout days?

For acute effects like energy and pump, workout-day use is enough. For ingredients with cumulative benefits, especially beta-alanine, daily use is better because muscle carnosine loading depends on consistency rather than only taking it before training.

Not a bad start
Format: Kindle
3 stars Thank you Netgalley and Briar Boleyn for the ARC! A camelot/king Arthur retelling with fae. I was hooked by the idea of this book immediately and was eager to jump into this world. • slow burn • enemies to lovers • who did this to you Morgan Pendragon watched her mother die by her father's hand when she was just eight years old, hiding under the bed. Morgan is believed to have the tainted blood of the fae in her veins and is cast aside so that her fathers illegitimate son, Arthur, can become the king. She's seen his cruel treatment of the fae firsthand, so when he sends her on a journey to find a fae weapon she seizes the opportunity to do more with her life. Along the way, she finds more than she could have imagined. I don't know a whole lot about King Arthur and Camelot but I had a lot of fun with this story! The plot has some similar tropes to popular romantasy books (From blood and ash) but there's enough originality here that it doesn't feel like I'm reading a copy. I liked how the fae were different in appearance than what is typical in most fantasy books I've read. In this book they have blue hair, violet skin and a wide range of other characteristics. I thought that the world building was easy to follow and I could easily immerse myself into this world. After reading the blurb I kept wondering when she was going to go on the journey to find Excalibur and it doesn't happen until around the 45% mark. The story is a bit slow at times but starts to pick up once they begin their journey to find Excalibur. The John Wick style Inn was a fun concept that I enjoyed reading about. There are a lot of similarities to this and FBAA and I would have liked to have it be a little more different, but I'm hoping book two will have the story turn into something of its own. Overall I enjoyed reading this story and I'm looking forward to reading book two especially after that ending.

Right from the start, I was drawn in by the prologue!!!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Queen of Roses (Blood of a Fae #1) by Briar Boleyn Genre General Fiction ( Adult), Romance, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Dark Romance “More primordial than the stars. My name was on his lips as he promised unspeakable darkness to any who came between us.” Right from the start, I was drawn in by the prologue!!! I’m a big fan of “touch her, and you die” vibes, but I mean, what’s also not to love about a unique Arthurian retelling with gender twists, a treacherous royal court, a dangerous quest, magical Fae & mystical monsters, entwined with a bit of spice! Morgan, Princess of Pendrath and true heir to the throne has spent most of her life dimming her light to feel safe and to make others comfortable. She is treated as an outcast in the court and repressed by her family due to the blood of the Fae within her and forced to join the Temple of the Three as a priestess in training to one day replace Merlin. Her brother, King Arthur, who reminds me of Joffrey from Game of Thrones, later tells her that he has other plans and offers her a choice of the Temple or to marry her off for political gain, unless… that is, she can journey through the great unknown and return with a long-lost fae weapon with enchanted powers known as Excalibur. Her quest begins with a roguish crew that includes the mysterious, arrogant, and heart-tuggingly handsome Captain of the Royal Guard, Kairos Draven, whom she can’t decide if she wants to stab or indulge in pleasure with. Along the way are plenty of surprises, mystical creatures, and betrayal, all while Morgan uncovers more of the truth about herself and who she can trust. This book had intriguing storylines and lovable characters that kept me turning pages and wanting more. I can’t wait to see how it all unfolds and comes together in book 2, Court of Claws, which I just started reading!! Read if you’re into- Dark Fantasy/Romance Slow–Burn Question Everything Magic and Action Fae Arthurian Legend Stabby/Broken FFC Morally Gray MMC Forced Proximity Queen of Roses is perfect for Holly Black, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Sarah J. Maas fans. Please check the trigger warnings page in the table of contents before reading this book.

3.5 stars, A little boring to say the least.
Format: Kindle
Wow so I'm not sure where to begin on this one. This was a very different take on the legend of Arthur and Excalibur. This is told from the point of view of Morgan the sister of Arthur. Honestly the first 50% of this book is world building and character building which unfortunately was super boring for me. Morgan to me was a female MC that had a hard time in believing in herself. Sometimes taking too long to understand exactly what was going on around her. Draven was also a different male MC, like I couldn't put my finger on him and what he was all about. It was not until the last 10% of the book did we get some answers on the mystery that is Draven. The other 50% of the book centered around this big journey with everyone having a different motive. We see a spark of magic around this time that had me excited but then we never expanded upon that and what it could mean for the female MC. I feel like I want to read the second book just to see where this goes, but the spice was probably a 2 out of 5. Side characters are ok, Lancelet was fun but I almost felt like I wanted more.

A bewitching retelling of Arthurian legend!
Format: Kindle
In a land where the Fae have nearly become only a legend and those who still posses even a morsel of the blood are few and far between, Morgan finds herself cast aside by most of society due to her rumored half-Fae lineage, including her brother, King Arthur. With the kingdom at the brink of war, Arthur entrusts her with a quest to retrieve a Fae weapon of legendary power: the sword of Perun, Excalibur. Accompanied by men she loathes, Captain Kairos Draven and Ragnar Whitehorn, she embarks on her long and unbeknownst perilous journey, only to find that things she once believed to be myth are in fact very real. With devastating twists, omitted truths, witty banter and fierce action, Queen of Roses leaves you begging to know more about the secrets of Aercanum! Wow, wow, wow! Going into this story, I did not realize that it was going to be a retelling of Arthurian legend, especially not one with a fantastical twist! The unique spin almost gave me The Witcher vibes and I think adding Fae into the mix was quite interesting. I knew the basics of the legend but after reading this book, it has piqued my interest and makes me want to learn more about it. My attention was snatched as soon as I finished the prologue and I knew that I was going to devour this story. I truly enjoyed the gender swaps and even how Arthur was portrayed as villainous. Morgan’s past and even her parts of her present is absolutely heartbreaking, and I felt for her at times. I can only recall one other book that made me hate characters the way I despised Florian and Arthur, leaving me with my blood boiling and feeling disgusted. Even after finishing the book, Draven is still a mystery to me and I cannot figure out how to feel about him. I guess they just means that the author did an excellent job at conveying each character’s persona! The rich world building and imagery made it easy for me to visualize the places that the group visited along their journey. I am truly engulfed in this story and I cannot wait to see wait fate awaits Morgan and how the Fae will be even more incorporated in the next book!. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
