Focus XT Caffeine Free (30 Servings) Reviews

[uforce]

Final Thoughts

Overall, I would recommend the caffeine free version versus the original. There are many reasons for this. Limitless stack-ability, being able to keep your favorite stimmed pre workout without OD'ing on caffeine, and better taste are to name a few. I noticed a headache or two early on, but I feel this was due to stopping stims for this run. The headaches didn't last long and were quickly a thing of the past. I noticed with the original version that every day use started to have a slight negative effect on me. Just gradually got to a point (at the end of each tub), that I just didn't feel as good as the first week. I can't blame that solely on the original FXT, as it could have easily been my total caffeine intake. Regardless, you do not have to worry about that with the caffeine free version. And, imo, it's much easier to see the cumulative effects. I could only imagine the effects of running 2 or 3 tubs consecutively.

Honestly, I don't know why it took SNS this long to release a CF version. Either way, I'm glad it's here now. We just need to get some additional flavors on the market! I will never hesitate to recommend this product. Cliffs for this log.

-improved taste, better masking of raws
-improved ability to stay on task
-positive cumulative effects on mental clarity
-better sleep due to reduced dependence (and consumption) of stims throughout the day
-improved ability to multi-task

Thanks again, Coop. Another quality product from SNS.

Thanks to Mack for sending me a scoop of Stim-Free Focus XT. Taste was not bad, I think it was fruit punch. It mixed perfect without any particles left in the bottom of my shaker. The energy that it game was surprising due to it being non-stim. To be honest, without caffiene, I was thinking it wasn't going to amount to much. But I was pleasantly surprised at the energy to make me push out a couple more reps.

I wanna give a big thanks to my man Mack for letting me try out Stim Free Focus XT. Took it with 8oz of water 30 minutes before my workout. First thing I noticed was how easy it mixed. No foam, no floaters!! Taste was decent, not too sweet and not too tangy. Really started feeling it kicking in as I was changing into my workout clothes. Not like bam! Here I am, but more of a let's do this kind of focus! I'm not a fan of stims so I appreciated the fact that this was very mellow steady energy. The focus though, that's what should sell this product. The gym was packed but I didn't notice or care for that matter. I was in the zone and ready to rock out some reps. Had a great workout. Energy was there the entire time and focus was intense from the first rep to the last. Very happy with Stim Free Focus XT!! Thanks again Mack!!

Thanks man,it is truly on another level when it comes to focus in the gym!

I agree with ya there. That's my favorite thing about pwos and SNS did great with this one

[mstep]

first off would like to thank Mack411 for all his awesome info, help and this sample from his own tub. stand up guy right here

Mixibility: 4/5 ok so it mixed pretty weel, no chunks or clumps but like every other product, refill with a little more water after downing it and its all good

Taste: 5/5 freakin awesome taste. just how i like it, not so sweet like most flavored drinks and a hint of sour. i rather drink somethin a bit more sour than sweet. i did add more water than needed so that prolly why the bitter taste but i loved it

Focus: 5/5 fanfreakintastic focus. 15min after drinkin felt a warm feeling and when i got to the gym, i couldnt wait to hit treadmill. 10min pass like it was 1 min. half hour passes like it was 5min. u are so focused and happy its great. compared to n-pept 10 by lgi, this stuff was a lot more chiller. n-pept would be more for aggressive lifting instead of a cardio where u just wanna focus on happy thoughts than troubling life thoughts. ab workouts after was like insane. i wanted to keep goin and goin and not leave the gym at all.

Energy: 5/5 straight clean energy with no crash. this is the caffeine free version too and i havent tried regular but no need since i enjoyed the energy out of this

Endurance: 5/5 made me wanna keep goin on treadmill and ab workouts. ended up goin extra time and just felt great

overall: 5/5 next pay check, gettin 2 tubs. i cant imagine my workouts without a scoop of this stuff. everything just feels perfect. some things have been goin downhill for me lately and was depressed but this just made me happy all day. i cant even wait till im back in school and see how this is with studying. like i said, compared to other harder notrops, this one is by far the best

Wanna say thanks to Mackdaddy for giving me the chance to try this product; SNS creatine monohydrate is easily the best out there buck for buck so I had high hopes for this stuff.

First thing, took 1 scoop pre on an empty stomach in addition to my normal routine right now, 1 scoop hemavol, 2g taurine and 750mg additional agmatine, 1 scoop compete intra. MIXED PERFECTLY in 10oz water and TASTE WAS INCREDIBLE. I doublechecked to make sure it was sugarfree; never had a pre taste so spot on. Top notch.

Hit the gym half an hour later, only had about 45min to thrash some biceps before a hot night out later. Never really noticed the onset of this product directly, kept waiting for something. As I continued to curl, disappointed, I started to realize the Pantera in my earbuds getting louder and sounding more savage than I'd ever noticed... somewhere in the workout I just zoned in on the music and really got into pumping the iron. Driven to the task at hand; Focus is a truly apt description.

No strength/performance/endurance gains of any kind; no crash or jitters; no big bang of 'on/off' like a true preworkout, just straight attention and focus to whatever the task at hand is. Does what is says and nothing else with zero sides; I'd really love to try 1.5 scoops as I think at my weight it may need a bit more.

At $21 a tub on Lockout the price is very reasonable per serving, especially for anyone who can't or doesn't want a stimulant or creatine-based workout aid. Will def get a tub sometime soon to play with on cycle.

I would like to first and foremost thank Mack for sending me a sample of Caffeine Free Focus XT along with thanks to all the reps at SNS for their constant professional and courteous responses to all my questions I ask. I will start off with a brief explanation on why I choose to try out CF Focus XT, two years ago when I started to make a serious commitment to bodybuilding I decided to completely focus on my diet and to make sure it was top notch. I made the decision to give up anything containing artificial sweeteners which pretty much means giving up all pre workouts. My current job entails me to work in a cold cooler for up to ten hours a day and when I get home and am getting ready for the gym a large cup of coffee and large carb meal was no longer cutting it as my "pre workout". After December 21, 2012 passed I decided to no longer live in fear of artificial sweetners and to introduce myself back into pre workouts. Now I have tried many many pre workouts in my past and what I do not like is the overly stimmed out feeling you get from most of them, I am the kind of person where I like to take my time in the gym and really focus on my form and technique throughout my entire workout and I have found that pre workouts with stimulants makes me feel to "cracked out" and I cannot focus on my workout. I have used many SNS products, so to hear they have a pre workout geared towards more of a mental focus was a no brainer to try out as my introductory supplement back into the pre workout game. After being stuck in my house for four days due to a blizzard and then having my mail service suspended for a week due to the snow lets just say I was more then excited when my sample arrived, ok lets get this review going!


SNS CAFFEINE FREE FOCUS XT

Mix-ability: 5/5 I added one scoop of CF Focus XT into a shaker cup along with 16oz of water. I gave it a quick shake and let it sit on my counter for a minute, to my surprise there was little build up of foam at the top along with a completely blended appearance. There was no clumping, no chunks floating around, no grainy texture, and most importantly when consumed no left over residue on the bottom of the cup. I am very impressed with how easy it was to mix and that I did not have to waste any calories shaking it to death.

Taste: 5/5 This was a very important aspect for me, because it has been two years since I have consumed artificial sweeteners and the rare times I do consume them I can most always taste a difference and I cannot stand the taste of them. When I saw that CF Focus XT was fruit punch flavored I was excited because most pre workouts are of some mixture of berry bonanza or raspberry something and I hate the overly tart taste of them. When you think of fruit punch you think of a cool refreshing drink and CF Focus XT nailed it! Not only was it refreshing but it had a smooth tone to it that was very pleasant on the pallet of my mouth. There was no chemical taste to this product and I didn't have to plug my nose to choke down this product, SNS nailed it on tatse!

Focus: 5/5 This is by far the most important category, after all the product contains "focus" in its name. I decided to sample this product on chest day because out of all my workouts chest day requires the most amount of focus needed for me. Like I stated earlier in my introduction most pre workouts I have tried in the past have been stimulated and give me that generic "cracked out" feeling that some go crazy over but its not for me, I like to stay alert and on point when exercising and stimulants distract me from the task at hand. With CF Focus XT I found that it came on in a very smooth natural wave. I took it about a half hour prior to the gym and by the time I got there I could feel the intensity of the product setting in. Now I normally get tunnel vision at the gym but its usually on girls ass' and not my workout. With CF Focus XT the tunnel vision I experienced was a very on point and precise tunnel vision, it allowed me to keep my mind clear and set my goals for my specific workout which I hardly ever do because I am one to often get distracted easily. I was able to walk into the gym, not look at a single butt and say "ok I am going to do X amount of reps and X amount of sets" and this supplement certainly helped me achieve that. CF Focus XT with out a doubt certainly lives up to its name and had me one hundred percent focused on my workout.


Energy: 5/5 As I stated earlier I work in a cold environment and even with a large cup of coffee and a big carb pre workout meal I would still walk into the gym yawning and tired. CF Focus XT came on in a very smooth and clean energy. There were no peaks or highs and lows it was just a constant and clean energy throughout my entire workout. Most importantly just as smooth and easy as the energy came on towards the end there was no crash or sudden anxiety once the product wore off, it ended in a very smooth transition.

Endurance: 5/5 This product did not give me direct strength gains and nor did I expect it to but what I did notice is it kept me in a calm state of mind during my workout and brought on a sense of confidence which allowed me to push farther through my workout then I normally would. As far as the endurance aspect I certainly did not fatigue during my workout and I will admit I hate doing cardio after I normally lift but I was left with all this left over energy so I decided to jump on the treadmill for a quick moment and thirty minutes later I had to force myself to get off because I was so "in the zone".

Overall: 5/5 This product has overall highly impressed me on all aspects, I honestly did not expect it to blow me out of the water but this product does exactly what it states, gets you FOCUSED! The sample I received certainly did its job in convincing me the product works and at the conclusion of writing this review I will be ordering a bottle off of Nutraplanet. This product has furthermore solidified my trust in SNS and all their reps. SNS delivers top quality products along with top quality reps, I would again like to thank Mack for sending me a sample!

Just wondering, how do you guys compare this focus to craze?

[bean5er]

A big thanks to Mack for sending me a sample of stim free Focus XT. I wasn't expecting much as I'm a stim junkie but I was shocked.

Mixing - 8.5
Mixed great with 10oz water quick shake and it mixes right up!

Taste - 8
Taste is good actually. A little string tart wise but I think a bit more water would help.

Focus - 8/9
The reason being is I was very skeptical and this **** hit me. I drank half on my way to work and quickly noticed the focus when I got there. I just drank the rest just now after a meal as I had a long drive and the sensation I got earlier today was there the same. I'm very attentive, not tunnel vision but a good mental clarity I think describes it best.

Actually looking forward to a stim break after trying this out.

Thanks Mack

I will first say I love both versions of this and depending on your needs I think one may be better suited over the other. I really like stacking this with existing PWO's, the added focus is a big bonus and mind muscle connection comes easier and is stronger when stacking. This version however for me does have a down side, with the lack of caffeine taking this solo as a PWO or in combination with other nootropics like racetams I fins my self getting a bit lethargic and a mental fog. I with out some form of stimulant I miss out on the benefits of this product. So at least for me if I'm taking this solo or without stims I would opt for the original version, but gald to have the option when I want to stack with PWO.
