Overview

Shock'D Yoked Flex on the Beach is a pre-workout supplement that incorporates several evidence-backed ingredients known to enhance exercise performance, such as Citrulline Malate and Betaine Anhydrous, provided at or near effective dosages. However, a significant portion of its formula, particularly the vital stimulant and focus components, are hidden within proprietary blends (e.g., Supercharged+ Stim Complex, Vita-Focus Complex). This lack of transparency makes it difficult to ascertain whether these ingredients are present in clinically effective amounts, thereby limiting the overall confidence in the product's full intended effects.

The Good

Comprehensive Multi-Benefit Formula: Aims to provide energy, focus, pumps, and endurance for a well-rounded pre-workout experience by including ingredients targeting multiple pathways.

Transparent Dosing for Key Ingredients: Citrulline Malate (4000mg) and Agmatine Sulfate (1000mg) are appropriately dosed for significant pump and blood flow benefits.

Inclusion of Nootropic Ingredients: Ingredients such as L-Tyrosine, N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine, Mucuna Pruriens Extract, Alpha GPC, and L-Theanine (though in proprietary blends) are intended to support focus and cognitive function during workouts.

The Bad

Proprietary Blends Mask Dosages: Several key complexes are proprietary blends, making it impossible to ascertain the exact dose of individual ingredients within them (e.g., L-Tyrosine, N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine, Caffeine Anhydrous, Coffeeberry Energy, VitaCholine, Alpha GPC are listed within larger complexes without specific quantities). This lack of transparency means consumers cannot verify if ingredients are at effective or safe levels.

Potential for High Stimulant Load: The "Supercharged+ Stim Complex" with various forms of caffeine (Caffeine Anhydrous, Zumxr Extended Release, Zumxr Delayed-Release, Coffeeberry Energy) makes the total caffeine content ambiguous. This poses a risk for individuals sensitive to stimulants or those unaccustomed to pre-workouts, potentially leading to jitters, anxiety, increased heart rate, and sleep disturbances.

Limited Evidence for Some Blends: "Shock'D 6-In-1 Blend," "Shock-Pump Complex," "Dopa-Sine Complex," "Tyro-Surge Blend," "Vita-Focus Complex," "Beta-Strong Complex," "Supercharged+ Stim Complex," "Shock'D Uptake Compound," and "Ch+ Blend" are all proprietary. Without specific ingredient amounts, it's difficult to confirm their effectiveness or safety.
