USN Qhush Platinum Black Pre-Workout is a high-stimulant, premium pre-workout supplement formulated by Ultimate Sports Nutrition (USN). It is designed to deliver explosive energy, high cognitive focus, and intense muscle vascularity (pumps) during heavy lifting or high-intensity athletic training.
Key Ingredients & Dosing (Per 2 Scoops / 15g Serving)
-
L-Citrulline Malate 2:1 (5,000 mg): A potent vasodilator that increases nitric oxide production. This expands blood vessels, promoting massive muscle pumps, enhancing nutrient delivery, and delaying fatigue.
-
Beta-Alanine (3,200 mg): Helps buffer lactic acid accumulation in the muscles. This delays the "burn" during training, letting you squeeze out extra reps.
-
Caffeine (250 mg): Delivers a heavy surge of energy and alertness by stimulating the central nervous system.
-
Arginine AKG (1,000 mg): Works synergistically with Citrulline to elevate blood flow, enhance vascularity, and increase muscle fullness.
-
L-Tyrosine (500 mg) & L-Theanine: Nootropic compounds that sharpen mental focus, improve concentration, and smooth out the energy curve to prevent an abrupt crash.
-
AstraGin™: A proprietary compound added to maximize the gut absorption of these active ingredients.
Available Flavours
The formula is widely distributed in 300g tubs (providing up to 40 single-scoop servings) and comes in several distinct variations:
- Sour Candy
- Ice Blue Burst
- Super-Heat Fruit Fusion (a thermogenic variation designed to heighten core heat)
How to Use & Safety Considerations
-
Usage Instructions: Mix 1 scoop (7.5 g) with 150–200 ml of water and drink 20–30 minutes before your workout. Once your body builds up a personal tolerance, advanced users can scale up to an extreme workout dose of 2 scoops (15 g) in 250–300 ml of water.
-
The "Pins and Needles" Effect: Due to the clinical dosing of Beta-Alanine, you may experience a harmless, temporary tingling sensation on your skin (paraesthesia) shortly after drinking it. This is a normal reaction to the compound activating nerve receptors and typically fades within 90 minutes.
-
Caffeine Warning: Because a full double-scoop dose contains 250 mg of caffeine (equivalent to multiple cups of coffee), do not combine this supplement with other high-stimulant drinks, and avoid taking it late in the evening to prevent insomnia.
