Apollon Nutrition continues to push the envelope in their formulas. The brand is notorious for formulating with proven ingredients at optimal dosing to give the user the most bang for their buck.

Apollon Nutrition Hooligan V7 takes pre-workouts to another level. The 40/20-serving pre-workout contains over 500mg caffeine at the full scoop size but 99% of users can really get a true 40-serving out of this formula as the 1/2 scoop size is sufficient for most. The performance and value of Hooligan V7 is worth the consideration.

Apollon Hooligan Supplement Facts

Recently we have seen a lot of products giving serving size recommendations two scoops per serving with the one and two serving breakdowns on the SFP. Apollon’s Hooligan is so strong it is broken down into half a serving and a full serving. That’s saying something. Lets check out the full size one scoop serving for the purpose of this breakdown. 

L-Citrulline – 10,000mgApollonHooliganSFP

L-Citrulline is an amino acid that plays a role in the urea cycle. It is responsible for promotion of blood flow via increase in serum arginine levels; this mechanism increases the production of a compound called nitric oxide. Nitric oxide promotes vasodilation; the dilation of blood vessels. Wider blood vessels allows for more blood to pass. Blood is a transporter of nutrients which is essential for performance activity. It also carries oxygen which is essential in… living! A clinical dose is considered 4000-6000mg, so Hooligan gives just a tad extra.

Beta-Alanine – 6,400mg

Beta-Alanine is an amino acid responsible for the synthesis of carnosyn, which is responsible for acid-base regulation. As you exercise, lactic acid builds up which can induce fatigue and thus, hinder performance. Carnosyn helps to buffer this change in pH by binding to hydrogen ions and preventing any drop in pH levels; this mechanism prolongs time to exhaustion and ultimately increases performance in the gym.

Betaine Anhydrous – 5,000mg

Betaine anhyrdous, also known as trimethylglycine, is an amino acid naturally occuring in several plant species including beetroot. It acts as an osmolyte; a compound that controls intracellular fluid balance and hydration. Evidence suggests that betaine poses benefits in endurance during both resistance and high volume training due to its hyperhydration effects.

Arginine Nitrate – 4,200mg

Arginine nitrate is a compound formed from the amino acid arginine and nitric acid. It is known to boost nitric oxide levels in the body, which can help improve blood flow and increase exercise performance. Nitric oxide acts as a vasodilator, which means it helps widen blood vessels, potentially leading to better endurance and reduced fatigue during workouts. Studies show common dosages for enhancing exercise performance typically range from 3 to 6 grams per day.

Taurine -3,000mg

Taurine is a naturally occurring amino acid that is found in high concentrations in various tissues throughout the body, particularly in the brain, heart, and muscles. With Taurine being very abundant in our bodies it will also hold a very abundant number of benefits of why to put it into a pre-workout. Taurine may lead to increased stamina & endurance, increased muscle contraction, and promoting cognitive function just to name a few. With the suggested use of Taurine in pre-workout to be between 1,000mg – 2,000mg in pre-workouts this delivers a whopping 3,000mg.

L-Tyrosine – 3,000mg

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 up to 4000mg. There also is literature suggesting that L-tyrosine supplementation may be beneficial for weigh management, as it plays a role in thyroid production.

Alpha GPC 50% – 800mg

Alpha-GPC is a nootropic (improved brain functionality) used in pre-workout supplements, amino acid supplements and nootropic supplements due to its ability to improve brain functionality and increased athletic performance. Alpha-GPC seems to increase a chemical in the brain called acetylcholine. This brain chemical is important for memory and learning functions. This has been increasingly used in pre-workout supplements as a cognitive enhancing ingredient. Studies show that those who supplemented with Alpha-GPC over caffeine or a placebo performed better on a variety of tests. However, some studies show that it was determined that Alpha-GPC does improve brain function at 600mg.

Theobromine – 600mg

Theobromine is a naturally occurring compound found in cocoa beans, tea leaves, and some other plants. Theobromine has a stimulating effect, though it’s milder compared to caffeine. It can increase alertness and improve mood. It may also help to enhance mental clarity and focus without the jitteriness often associated with caffeine. Theobromine can act as a vasodilator, helping to widen blood vessels and improve blood flow. This can have a positive effect on cardiovascular health. Studies show that doses can range from 100mg up to 600mg per day.

Himalayan Pink Sea Salt – 300mg

Sea salt is rich in sodium, en electrolyte that plays a crucial role in regulating intracellular fluid balance and muscle contractions. As you workout, sodium is lost via sweat; this will impede performance, especially during endurance training. Time and time again, sodium supplementation prior to exercise has been shown to have ergogenic (performance enhancing) effects by promoting hydration and nerve conduction. 

Caffeine Anhydrous – 350mg

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 my many studies and potentially the most consumed supplement in the world. While there are several forms of caffeine present in pre-workouts (ex. this is one of three caffeine sources within this formula), caffeine anhydrous is easily the most popular. Studies show a wide range of doses up to 400mg are effective and safe. 

Di-Caffeine Malate – 200mg

Oh look, another caffeine source! Di-caffeine malate is the second caffeine source present in Hooligan; it provides longer lasting energy and is 75% caffeine by mass. At 200mg, this provides another 150mg caffeine. Di-caffeine malate helps to offset that ever-so-dreaded crash many experience post workout. It poses similar benefit to caffeine anhydrous, boosting energy, thermogenesis, and focus. 

Senactiv – 100mg

Senactiv is an ingredient from Nuliv Science. This has been shown to not only improve performance and exercise output but it also has been shown to reduce fatigue and improve recovery. Senactiv dosage is typically 50mg so this is 200% more per serving. This herb is also known in traditional medicine for its adaptogenic properties, which means it may help the body adapt to stress and maintain balance.

Astragin – 50mg

Astragin is a patented, plant based compound providing “full gut support” through a variety of mechanisms:

  1. enhanced nutrient absorption
  2. microbiota viability
  3. immune cell viability
  4. promoting healthy intestinal wall environment

It works by increasing the number of transporter proteins present to carry nutrients to the intestinal wall, which are then absorbed by the body. Studies show that it significantly increases the absorption of amino acids, primarily arginine. In fact, it has studies both in vitro and in vivo that support this finding. It also has data supporting the absorption of histidine, lysine, glucose, folate, creatine, agmatine, beta-alanine, choline, citrulline, BCAAs, and carnitine. And it also activates the MTOR pathway which promotes muscle protein synthesis. To keep it simple, it makes your entire formula more effective and bioavailable.

Final Takeaway on Apollon Nutrition Hooligan

It is nice to see three flavors being dropped at once versus the usual one to two. While I haven't personally tried this version of Hooligan, I have never been disappointed when using a pre-workout from Apollon Nutrition. Stay tuned to our social media channels to learn more.
