ABB Speed Stack Pumped N.O. Energy Drink Review:
So everyonce in awhile I get to review a Hardcore Energy Drink that is not for your everyday activities. They are meant for those hardcore athletes and gym rats to take it to the next level. Well today I will be reviewing one of the ABB Energy Drinks that is focused on just that... the hardcore athlete. ABB Speed Stack Pumped N.O. (Nitric Oxide) comes in a 22 ounce plastic bottle and two flavors Grape and Fruit Punch. These bad boys are manufactured by American Bodybuilding Products. The complete lineup (as of right now) of ABB Energy Drinks include: Speed Stack (original), Ripped Force, Diet Turbo Tea, Adrenalyn Shot and Speed Shot Intensity. They are all high performance energy drinks... What else would you expect from ABB? Anyways, enough fluff and onto the review.

ABB Speed Stack Pumped N.O. Energy Drink Review: Taste
So first off I would like to distinguish the taste of these hardcore drinks from your everyday energy drinks. They are more based on performance and are really not for the casual enthusiast. That being said, both the grape and fruit punch flavors have a medicinal aftertaste. By no means is it hard to drink, it is actually very well put together for a hardcore drink, it just does not have as smooth a taste as most people would be used to. Anyways, when I consume a hardcore drink to get that extra pump at the gym I want to know what I drink is working... And so far, the entire lineup of ABB Energy Drinks have not disappointed in the kick category. Taste Rating - 7.5

ABB Speed Stack Pumped N.O. Energy Drink Review: Kick
The kick category for this drink carries more weight than the taste category. That being said, how did the Speed Stack Pumped N.O. perform at the gym? Well I followed the directions and drank 1/2 the bottle prior to exercising. And let me tell you the rush was intense and I was hitting the weights in no time. The Nitric Oxide version of this drink also contains arginine and glycerol which is where you get that pumped up feeling from... 30 Minutes into my training session I was still feeling quite pumped... Nonetheless I decided to drink the other half of the bottle to see what would happen. All I have to say is WOW. Definitely one of the strongest energy drinks I have had. Probably not "the" strongest, but it definitely ranks high on my list. So what's all in this bad boy? Well the drink itself (22 ounces) contains 300 milligrams of caffeine, 500 milligrams of taurine as well as arginine and glycerol for extra pump. So yeah, it is chalked full of energy. Now since I decided to drink the whole bottle I offset it by drinking a ton of water throughout my hour and a half workout. I would have to say that I consumed roughly 40-60 ounces of water in that time period... Which coincidentally led to two bathroom breaks. Even after the grueling workout, I was pumped and ready to keep rocking. Unfortunately, this was an after work gym session, so the energy carried on late into the night. Next time I use an ABB Energy Drink I think I will use it during my morning session. Kick Rating - 9.7

ABB Speed Stack Pumped N.O. Energy Drink Review: Final Judgment
POWERFUL kick and a better than average taste for a drink of this caliber. If you are looking for that supplement to get you to the next level you may want to give this one a try. The energy I received was immense! Just remember, there is a lot of caffeine in here, so drink lots of water and consult your doctor when using for intense training. The suggested retail of these is about $2.99 each, or you can buy in bulk for around $55 for 20 bottles. However, right now Amazon has a special for $28.60 for 20 bottles bringing the cost down to less than $1.50 each, which to me seems like a sweet deal. Final Judgment - 9.2
