*important* first time using just do half a scoop to see how you handle it. That used to be on the directions back then, not sure why not anymore. Just got myself another bottle of this stuff, tried it back then too and absolutely loved it too. Crazy how much caffeine is in one scoop yet it somehow don’t make you jittery or irritated. (*important* be careful what caffeinated beverages you’ve had the day using this stuff and keep in mind one scoop is a whopping 275mg of caffeine)
The advertising on it is true this stuff really is THE only preworkout you’ll ever want and need. And it is true it kind of is addictive from what I remember on my first jug I remember before a workout I used to get excited like a kid in a candy store to take it before heading to gym lol wasn’t habit forming though. I replaced it with coffee I think after it ran out.
Stuff gets you going, I literally texted my girl saying how it made me feel before my workout today and I quote “I only had half a scoop of this preworkout mix and I feel like a small organization of jack rabbits got together and decided to run a trillion laps around Manhattan in under two seconds”
Nuff said. Enjoy your workout with this stuff it makes you feel like Superman.
Carolyn Ceker –
This product was recommended to me by a friend who has been using it for years. I didn’t really read up on it, i just bought it.
Initial thoughts
It makes my face and arms itch within 10 minutes
It gives me the jitters like i just had a gallon of coffee
Easy to digest, flavor is good (Fruit punch)
Just mix with water and that’s good enough
As far as being able to push through the last few reps, this product definitely feels like it gives me that edge however it has 260mg+ caffeine, that’s like 5 cups of coffee packed into a single cup.
I am not sure if that’s a good or bad thing, it definitely doesn’t give me a crash afterwards but i think if you consume anything with that much caffeine in it, you are going to be pretty hyper and energetic for about an hour or two.
I have mixed feelings about the product, only reason i gave it 5 stars is because it actually works but i haven’t tried any other product with no caffeine, i also don’t know if long term use of caffeine will make you addicted to it and you can’t really workout without it.

Where to start???
Pros: It has enough caffeine to get you going for an intense workout. As soon a you drink it, the tingles begin (makes you want to move around….alot!!) You will lose weight!
Cons: About 15 minutes after drinking, you will have to poop. That’s ok because everybody poops! Oh and by the way make sure you make yourself go before you lift or you will get a case of mudbutt. Now immediately after your workout there will a need to violently evacuate your bowels. Allow yourself 1 to 2 hours and repeat. This will happen 4 to 5 times during the course of the day. Do not take on rest day, you will be exhausted but not have to stay in close proximity to a toilet.
After a month of this, research reveals that this is normal. Probably from the combination of massive amounts of caffeine and magnesium. Most people use about 60 mg of magnesium as a way to combat constipation. This stuff about 125 mg per scoop.
Minus the cons, NO-Explode works as advertised.
Dead Mike –
The name of the product is misleading, as I did explode. I’m only able to write this review because it’s healing properties allowed me to get better.
Waldemar G. –
Decent product, not my favorite one. It does give you pump. I feel like no explode was better 10yrs ago or maybe I was lol. One tip that I can tell you watch out! It does explode when you mix it in the shake! I had to clean whole kitchen because it gassed up and while shaking it, shaker opened up and…….. yea..
Matthew Spearman –
For one reason or another BSN’s powdered supplements far outshine competing brands when it comes to flavor, texture, and aftertaste. Unlike other pre-workouts I don’t get heartburn or gas from this one and the flavor doesn’t taste metallic or sour, on the contrary it’s incredibly smooth and akin to kool-aid. Furthermore and most importantly; the energy boost is a steady slow release that doesn’t see me crashing mid set once I get to the gym and lasts long enough for me to get in a good 45-60 minutes of vigorous strength training. Overall BSN’s No-Xplode is likely to be my pre-workout of choice going forward.
LabLvr12 –
This is one of the best tasting pre-workout drinks IMO. You can pre-make these in water bottles and put them in the fridge or just give it a good stir before your workout. Good dose of caffeine so make sure to increase your water intake after your workout as well.
Rob –
I read a lot of bad reviews and I almost cancel my order but I did tried and it just works good for me, I been using C4 Original Cellucor and Amino Energy, both have caffeine like NO xplode so I did not feel any difference for now, I also know creatine takes time to take affect maybe a week or so, I hope to get better results but for me it was not like some other bad reviews that had to vomit or felt sick etc, to me is a good pre work out supplement at a good price
Damien –
Price continues to go up as I have used this for years I know. If it’s such a hot seller I would think the price would go down. Looking for other options now.
B. Denise –
My husband loves the extra energy he has when using this. He uses it 2 to 4 times a week. He started out using 1/2 scoop and has worked up to a full scoop. He has not had any negative side effects. However, it was way too strong for me. I am used to 1 cup of coffee here and there, not daily, so I’m not used to caffeine. I used 1 teaspoon of this and it felt like I had eyes in the back of my head. I had a lot of energy but could not focus because it felt like I was taking in too much of my surroundings. So, if you’re used to caffeine I’d say this would work well for you, if not, I’d find something else.
stephanie buendia –
It’s back!!! The original pre work, better and stronger then ever!!! Great pumps, long lasting through complete workout. I mainly do a variation of CrossFit movements and spinning bike. I’ve been crushing my workouts since using N.O xplode. Flavor is pretty good too. Highly recommend!
Family Account –
Excellent not just a lot of important ingredients, but a good amount of each in each serving. I never take two scoops. There have been days where I have taken a scoop early for a work out and again later for another workout. My only caution would be and it’s most preworkouts on an empty stomach and with many it can clear your gut out fast. I don’t like to work out with food in my stomach, so this could just me. Always drink lots of water anyways, because if you’re dehydrated to begin with, this like any caffeinated drinks can further dehydrate you further. Other than that it’s impossible to build what they have here at a better value. I’ve been using this brand for years. Experimented with others, but this one is consistently good in my honest opinion.
carolyn –
It definitely gave me the energy I needed but I taste is not good at all. I got a little stomach upset after.
Rob Nixon –
Yeah,you get the tingle,but I can get that from a 16 dollar product from Walmart.
Doug –
INCREDIBLE SHIPPING SPEED and value!!!!
Ordered last night and got it today!!!!
I HIGHLY recommend this product and company!!!!
EXTREMELY happy and would purchase again and again, AND DEFINITELY WILL!!!!
Blessings and thank you!!!
Dani –
I wanted a preworkout that was a large size with many servings, tasted great, and didn’t leave me jittery. This was the perfect product! The fruit punch tastes exactly like that classic childhood fruit punch and I am energized after drinking it, but not jittery. Definitely buying again and I would definitely recommend!
Jordan Molina –
I was recommended to try this about 10 years ago by my uncle who lifts weights. He got me into this pre-workout for several reasons, it tastes amazing, and it just gets me energized. My only issue with it is that it helps you focus and I sometimes get distracted with something before I workout and end up not working out for a while. So make sure you have no distractions. The taste is actually really good. I have had a few from this same brand and they are all good. I hope you find the one you like and that it energizes you to be a better you.
OJ –
Used this stuff many years before. Loved it. Still good but the new formula whatever they’re using makes you have to hit the bathroom room and take some explosive action on that ?.
Melissa –
The product itself is fine, I’ve used it in the past. However, the canister lid was crooked and I had to pound the lid down just to make it be on the threads to get it off. Once I did the seal was broken underneath too. That’s the reason for the 3 stars. Other than that it’s a good pre-workout. The watermelon flavor is pretty intense but I kind of just chug it, it’s not like I’m mixing a cocktail and sipping on it so I’m really not too picky.
Wrecked Moto –
It’s been a very long time since I had no xplode, but I don’t remember it being quite like this.
First of all I’ll say it does work. I got the 275mg caffeine blue raz. Although sometimes I don’t feel like I get the beta tingle like I should. But it definitely gets me pumped for my work out.
And for 40 bucks for 60 scoops it’s a decent deal.
Now for the down sides. A lot of powder seems to not dissolve and it has a “dirty” feel to it. The taste is absolutely horrid with the blue raz. But I slam the stuff down regardless so it’s not the end of the world.
Amazon Customer –
2014-2016, I used to take half a scoop of NO Explode to push through 2 hrs of weightlifting without feeling tired… However, the new formula gives me only 5 mins of facial tingling with one full scoop and not as much energy as it used to provide…
I personally don’t care about the taste too much, but reduced energy boost is disappointing. For flavor, Blue raz is not a bad choice.
You won’t feel tired after taking NO Explode, but you also won’t feel too much of an energy boost as well.
Ron –
Definitely does it’s job and gets you ready to workout. It last through my entire workout no problem with crashing or fading half way through. This thing definitely tastes like GRAPE, more than any other product of the same flavor. I’ve used other flavors of this product and for whatever reason I feel the effects from this one more than any other, like it works better for some reason.
almen –
I work out for long time..i just see people complain..bla.bla.bla..for me works perfect, i just tried today.
Just focus at the gym and leave your phone alone..
Dustin R Wickwire –
Not sure whats going on with this product. I dont fell much energy at all after taking this. According to the ingredients i should be feeling something. 275mg caffein, 1.8 Beta Alanine should be enough to get anyone jacked up but nope. I hardly feel any tingles from the beta and no energy from caffein, at least not 275mg of energy. My wife took a scoop and actually fell asleep. Lol i will be giving this away.
Neeson –
Got home after work, took a scoop while getting ready for the gym and was fast sleep within 15min. It’s just been sitting in my counter for the next time I need to get some shut eye
Nathan M Weiser –
I’ve been working out for some time now and taken a variety of preworkout supplements. NO explode has definitely been around for awhile, and with good reason. By far one of the best-tasting that I have come across. Also a variety of flavors. The cherry-limeade was my favorite. The pump you get is moderate and you don’t feel like you have consumed 19 pots of coffee after drinking it. However, if you are caffeine naive I would not recommend taking this in the evening (as you won’t be able to sleep). Best take in the morning. They do offer a caffeine free version.
Chris Clark –
Sadly, I used to take this product to go workout. But now I take this product when I need to go to the bathroom. Not trying to be crass or funny, it actually does something to my stomach that makes me have a bowel movement within about 15 minutes of taking it. From reading other reviews, it appears that I’m not the only one. I actually feel better after going to the bathroom and so I enjoy my workouts better so maybe it works on that level. As far as giving me a “pump” I don’t feel that anymore nor have I felt it for a long time. I also notice I get a headache if I don’t take this product now. I’m assuming it’s a caffeine headache. I think the flavor and the taste of the product is great. I’ve also had success using other BSN products and really enjoy their protein powders. I do think I’m going to try a different pre-workout drink after I’ve finished with this bottle.
grand-poobah –
Affordable pre-workout. It kicked in 5 minutes after consuming and lasted throughout my 1hr workout+. It mixes very easy in a cup. 4-6 oz of water and mix with a spoon. Flavor taste like Welch’s grape soda. I like flavor a lot and looked forward to drinking it. Tub has an outer seal, inner seal, moisture pak to prevent hardening of powder, and scoop with long handle to help scoop out powder when there isn’t much left. I included (4) pictures in this review. I have been lifting weights for 1 year and have tried many pre-workouts during that time. This one is one of the best that I have tried. I do compound lifts. Ex: Barbell Bench Press, Deadlifts, Barbell Rows, weighted dips, overhead presses, back/front squats, etc. N.O. Xplode helped me immensely to get through hard workouts. I learned about BSN brand from Scott Herman. In my opinion, one of the most honest and trustworthy fitness youtubers. I definitely recommend N.O. Xplode because it works. It made me feel more energetic, focused, and just ready to put in the hard work in my home gym. That’s all.
J. Thompson –
Many years ago I used this product, it clearly has changed over the years. The berry flavor is very chemical tasting, I don’t get much out of it from a performance side. It will get me through my workout but definitely not pushing me to do much more then show up to the gym. I won’t be purchasing again.
Dimitri Illya Jeet –
I have used a wide variety of pre workouts in the past and BSN gets this right. I enjoyed the old Super Pump 250 and this BSN NO-EXPLODE is on par. EATING right and taking this supplement has been awesome last couple months.
PROS (in my opinion) :
Value for money (not a cheap supplement but worth every cent),
Taste is great for a supplement, (I bought Fruit Punch)
Mixes very well,
Lasts very long in the body (for up to 2 hours I feel it)
Personally my strength feels on point and am having intense cardio sessions. (I do eat well too right now which can also be driving my results)
CONS:
My stomach feels a little gassy but nothing to be worried about IMO. I guess it is the strength of the supplement.
Ellen Hannemann –
Seems the formula with this product has changed as it gives more of a jittery, caffeinated feeling and not so much the open blood flow in the veins it used to give. It’s not likely I’ll order again because of that. The price is better here than in stores, so that’s a plus. But the formula has definitely changed.
Rose Toledo –
If you need a little extra boost before a workout, this supplement works great. XPLODE provides the kick you need to get through a Cardio heavy workout. Don’t drink this with milk as the powder clumps up, and while the milk will taste great the ‘clumps’ will taste HORRIBLE! Their is a scoop buried deep inside the container. Use half a scoop to a full scoop in a large glass of water, which will dilute the powder and increase the flavor.
Zoya Kirchner –
I have spent a lot of time looking for the best pre workout for the cost and I believe I may have found it. This is my second time taking it and I actually drank it about 10 minutes ago and am already starting to feel it. I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t had anything to eat or this is just what it does, but I felt tingling in my fingers and my stomach, not in a bad way though, it was very interesting. I haven’t experienced having to go to the bathroom after taking it, but that may change. If anything changes, I will make sure to update.
AJF –
I never took a pre-workout supplement until I was recommended this product, after one week I can tell the energy level and results have improved from what I did before, given I go to the gym in the morning with nothing but water in my stomach, but now with this is a whole different game
FM –
Wasn’t for me but doesn’t mean I cannot give a good review. Fruit punch flavor taste better than ever and I actually like it better than some juices since those tend to be on sweeter side. NOX is right amount of sweet.
It has a small amount of creatine in it, but was giving me a padded look. Had to drink a fat burner or coffee, 200-300 mg a day just to flush out the water my body was storing. Went to all parts of my buddy including my face.
Amount of energy and pump NOX gives is ok, but nothing special. NOX years ago was more potent but a change in ingredients has made it less effective.
Since I’m trying to keep same weight, shred, and turn into muscle a fat burner such as Celsius sports drink or c4 is probably best.
Know what your goals are before taking this stuff and use accordingly.
JW –
It should just be called xplode. I like to wait till after it hits my bowels to go to the gym. Otherwise you’ll spend your first 10 minutes of workout in the bathroom. It’s a great side effect for those needing it. I like the flavor and the boost it gives.
Eric H. –
I have been taking BSN products for over ten years on and off. I was a USAPL power lifter, collegiate athlete, and dabbled in bodybuilding all in that time frame.. New supplement would come out I’d try that. Always came back to my BSN stack. (NoXlode/Cellmass/Syntha6 and aminos.) there is a reason this company is still thriving after all of these years. Their supplements work. You can say they cut corners now and aren’t the same… they’re the same products. Potent, affordable, and that same trademark style of red containers. No xplode is and always will be the powerhouse of pre workouts. Hey and if your reviews are true and it’s just placebo, then that might be all I need to slam weights at 3 am. Regardless, placebo or not, whatever it is… it’s in those red containers. Thank you BSN for keeping me going after all of these years.
Jordan Phillips –
Love it. Its a classic, its got enough caffine to get you going for a workout especially if you work out like me super early in the morning. Also, help maintain your pump throughout the workout. Always feel solid when I take this. I will say that it can make you have to poop but stick to one scoop and you shouldn’t have this problem. 2 scoops will just give you a headache anyways.
Malfurion –
I’ve been using NoXplode since the early days and 99.9% of the time I just ordered Fruit Punch because that’s what I was used to. This time, for some stupid reason, I ordered BLUE RAZ. The most disgusting flavor I’ve ever tasted on any product. This stuff tastes like your dumping live toxic waste down your throat. I’m sure there are a few radioactive cannibals roaming around who would love this flavor, but if you are human like me, stay away. Just get Fruit Punch. It’s not that Fruit Punch is delicious, it’s that it’s tolerable. Unlike this sludge from the butt$#le of Thanos himself. Noxplode the product is very good and keeps me elevated during my workouts. 3 stars. Minus 2 stars for potential radiation poisoning.
RG –
Huge energy boost, really wakes you up. I take it before playing lacrosse and I can go on and on. I play for over 2 hours and don’t feel fatigued or sore. I don’t feel the need to poop as others have said. Yes you do get the “tingles” on your face, for me I feel it in my ears. The tingling is the Beta Alanine and it’s a well known and also very harmless side-effect. It just shows it’s working. I have the watermelon flavor and it’s the most “mild” flavor.
Do NOT shake it as you mix, I just swirl it around and it mixes pretty easily. Take it at least 45-30 minutes before.
Ken –
This is my second bottle. For the first one through BJ’s which is kind of lije a Sams club. They discontinued it so i ordered thrift Amazon. Great stuff. You will get a rush when you take it and a great muscle pump. It did have a big dose of caffeine as well as Niacin and B12 which can keep u awake so do not take it too late.
