DARK LABS CRACK INITIATION PRE-WORKOUT

SET THE PACE. BRING THE DARK LABS ATTITUDE. Crack Initiation takes a smooth-energy approach to pre-workout, pairing green coffee bean extract with zümXR® Extended Release Caffeine. Its formula combines 6 g L-citrulline, 3.2 g beta-alanine and 2 g betaine with HydroPrime®, CognatiQ® and AstraGin®.

Four branded ingredients. Clearly listed amounts. A distinct formula in the Crack range, with 30 servings and three flavour options.

A SMOOTHER APPROACH TO YOUR PRE-WORKOUT

Initiation is built around a different caffeine format: green coffee bean extract alongside an extended-release caffeine ingredient. That design is central to its smooth-energy positioning. Individual responses vary; it does not guarantee a crash-free experience or a fixed duration of effects.

Energy profile. Pump-focused ingredients. A complete training formula. L-citrulline and HydroPrime® sit alongside L-tyrosine and CognatiQ®, with individually listed amounts that make the formula easy to compare.

WHAT SETS INITIATION APART?

  • 6 g L-citrulline per scoop.
  • 3.2 g beta-alanine + 2 g betaine in the same serving.
  • Four branded ingredients - HydroPrime®, CognatiQ®, zümXR® and AstraGin®.
  • Extended-release caffeine ingredient alongside green coffee bean extract.
