Since 1995 MuscleTech has been a pioneer in innovation. With multiple stages in the brand's lifecycle, it seems as if MuscleTech is back at putting innovation at the center of their brand. The new EFF'N line from MuscleTech uses effervescent technology to mimic carbonation in a powder form.
Mimicking carbonation can be important to target users of energy and soft drinks. One of the key features people love about energy drinks is not only the fact that they have 200-300mg caffeine but also because they love flavor and carbonation. MuscleTech's EFF'N Energy! gives people an option for a different version in a powdered form that contains more than just caffeine.
MuscleTech EFF’N Energy! Supplement Facts
The honest truth is consumption of caffeine remains at an all-time high with people constantly on the go and sleep deprived. While many energy drinks and soft drinks on the market today (even coffee) target this with caffeinated drinks, they are pretty much just that. MuscleTech’s EFF’N Energy! provides a boost of caffeine but also some complimentary ingredients that can also improve cognition, alertness and mood.
Taurine – 2g
Taurine is a common ingredient used in products containing caffeine. The primary purpose of Taurine is to help regulate electrolytes. It can also aid in efficient energy production. When combined with stimulants like caffeine or Yohimbine, it can act as a calming agent by interacting with the body’s GABA receptors. This helps for those who may be very sensitive to stimulants. The 2g dosage is a nice touch.
N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine – 500mg
N-Acetyle-L-Tyrosine, or NALT, is a more stable version of Tyrosine. NALT can help improve cognition levels and mood by elevating dopamine levels in the body. Using NALT can also aid in performance under stress and anxiety. The 500mg dosage is great as it falls within the recommended range of 300-600mg.
Caffeine Anhydrous – 225mg
Caffeine Anhydrous is the most common form of caffeine used in energy drinks and dietary supplements. It works within 10-15 minutes after taking it. Users are going to get 225mg caffeine per packet of MuscleTech EFF’N Energy!

Genius Pure Alpha-GPC – 200mg
Alpha-GPC is one of the most effective forms of choline. It can cross the blood-brain barrier and improves choline availability in the body. The more acetylcholine you have can lead to improved neuronal signaling, which supports memory, learning, attention, and processing speed.
Typically you’d want to look for at least 600mg of Alpha-GPC on a label as generic Alpha-GPC yields 50% active Alpha-GPC (300mg active). MuscleTech elected to go with GeniusPure Alpha-GPC which is a patent form of Alpha-GPC from NNB Nutrition. Although the label does not indicate whether it is the 70% or 90% concentration of Alpha-GPC, it is still better than generic Alpha-GPC. If you are looking for a straight nootropic product you’d want a higher level of Alpha-GPC but for this purpose the 200mg dosage of GeniusPure Alpha-GPC is fine.
Yohimbe Extract – 10mg (standardized to 6% Yohimbine)
Yohimbine can be hard hitting for a lot of people who are sensitive to stimulants. This is standardized to 6% which means you get .6mg of Yohimbine. This level should be tolerated well by most who use this. Yohimbine is a stimulant that can improve alertness and reduce fatigue. It can also help with thermogenesis, increasing body temperature. This can aid in more calories burned.
Final Takeaway on MuscleTech EFF'N Energy!
This is a really cool product from MuscleTech. The best part is you can take it with you anywhere you go. You just need access to water. Unlike some energy drinks you are getting more than just caffeine and will surely get a boost in cognition and overall everyday performance.
