Axe & Sledge High Stim DBAP Pre-Workout Newly Reformulated

When Axe & Sledge released their first formula of DBAP, they entered uncharted territory in the high-stim pre-workout market. Since then, DBAP has become a customer favorite. With such great feedback, the mad scientist over at Axe & Sledge have created a new updated V2 formula and it was created with the sole intention of improving an already potent product.

Axe & Sledge DBAP V2 Pre-Workout

DBAP is back and better than ever with the new V2 formula. If you enjoy higher stim pre-workouts then this is the product you’ve been searching for. Lets dive into this formula and see why it’s called DBAP.AXESLEDGEDBAPSFP

Beta Alanine – 3,200mg

Beta-Alanine is an amino acid that plays a role in acid-base balance. When consumed, it binds with histidine to form a compound known as carnosyn: whose primary role is to regulate acid-base balance within skeletal muscle tissue. As you exercise, acid accumulates and will reduce exercise performance. Carnosyn binds to hydrogen ions and “buffers” the increase in acidity; that is, prevents drop in pH. This has been shown to offset fatigue and allows for increased endurance, improved power output, and an overall more intense training session. 2000-5000mg per day is recommended.

Betaine Anhydrous – 2,500mg

Betaine Anhydrous is a reputable ingredient used in pre-workouts that supports an increased output of exercise performance. Some research suggests that it may also aid in muscle recovery by enhancing muscle protein synthesis. The common feedback is that it can help improve output through strength and power. The 2,500mg dosage is perfect to achieve these results. 

L-Tyrosine – 1,500mg

L-Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid (one that the body can produce on its own) and precursor to both our “feel good” neurotransmitter dopamine and noradrenaline. It is one of the most popular nootropic compounds in the supplement industry and has been shown to increase cognition during bouts of acute stress, such as exercising. L-tyrosine will provide a slight euphoric feeling that us gym rats absolutely adore, and it is becoming increasingly common to see supra-therapeutic doses of it in a pre-workout formula. Some products can even reach up to 4,000mg. There also is literature suggesting that L-tyrosine supplementation may be beneficial for weigh management, as it plays a role in thyroid production.

Caffeine Anhydrous – 400mg

Everyone’s favorite energy-providing, focus enhancing ingredient! This central nervous stimulant is well known throughout the industry; it is the purest caffeine source on the planet and enhances energy levels, focus, thermogenesis, and performance in the gym. It is backed by more studies that I can shake a stick at! And its potentially the most consumed supplement in the world. While there are several forms of caffeine present in most current marketed pre-workouts, caffeine anhydrous is hands down the most popular. And at 400mg you’re getting a huge dose. That’s over half of the 700mg max suggested daily usage.

Dynamine – 100mg

This is the pure version of Dynamine from Compound Solutions. Unlike the “tasteless” version this is 100% Dynamine. Dynamine has similar effects as caffeine in terms of that it may amplify feelings of energy, mood and focus by activating dopamine receptors and other key neurotransmitters but it does not raise heart rate or blood pressure. Unlike Caffeine Anhydrous, Dynamine spikes approximately 30-minutes after ingestion, which will help keep energy levels high over a longer period of time without the crash (potentially). The 100mg dosage is acceptable.

TeaCrine – 50mg

TeaCrine is another pure version ingredient from Compound Solutions. TeaCrine, similar to Dynamine and Caffeine, in that it can help elevate mood, increase cognition and increase energy, but it can take up to an hour to spike. Users will first get “energy” from Caffeine Anhydrous, then Dynamine and finally TeaCrine. The 50mg dosage is sufficient.

Theobromine – 50mg

Theobromine is usually found in Cocoa products, with that said, it is often paired with Caffeine, due to the fact that they compliment each other and are similar compounds. There is a study, where 24 subjects (women) took a combination of  700mg of Theobromine, combined with Caffeine at 120mg. This study showed that alone, Theobromine was able to lower blood pressure, and when combined with Caffeine, an ingredient known to constrict blood flow, blood pressure was unaffected. Now one of the most sought after benefits from Theobromine is that is has been shown to be beneficial for energy, as it is similar to Caffeine. One thing to mention however, is that it does not appear as if Theobromine affects your sleep like Caffeine does, which is a good thing. According to a study, Theobromine enriched cocoa was shown to be effective in terms of lowering blood pressure when compared to placebo and non-enriched cocoa. This study was done on 42 people with high blood pressure. 

GBB – 30mg

GBB is a precursor to L-Carnitine. By increasing levels of GBB it can lead to higher levels of L-Carnitine and potentially enhance fat burning and energy expenditure thus leading to potentially more fat loss. Users using GBB will experience increased body temperature. If you take too much you could even get the chills. The 30mg dosage is safe and effective and is a nice addition to an already impressive profile. Users who use DBAP should experience increased body temperature, increased energy expenditure, increased trips to the bathroom and potentially more fat loss (when combined with proper nutrition and exercise).

NOTE: THIS PRE-WORKOUT IS NOT FOR EVERYONE

There’s been much debate about this pre-workout and rightfully so. It should not harm anyone, but it is going to be VERY STRONG. Proceed with caution.

Final Takeaway

While I havent had the chance to try this yet, I am personally not a big high stim junkie. But going through this formula I can say it can and will do its job, and it will do it REALLY WELL. Head on over to their website and check it out for yourself but we highly suggest proceeding with caution.
