Manufacturer Description
Synthetic compounds can be effective for the short term. But the body as a biological machine evolved to process food-sourced nutrients, and so the closer we are able to stick to the blueprints, the more holistic the performance optimization will be. Total Strength + Performance breaks the mould on pre-workout formulas, steering clear of the chemicals and stimulants that flood the market with quick pumps and highs. Our ingredients like Longjack, Beta-Alanine, and Luteolin are easily recognized and utilized by the body. The old era of performance supplementation is fading, and athletes who utilize an Earth grown nutrient approach are seizing the opportunity for greater performance and long term performance sustainability.
Key Features
- Optimize favourable hormone balance.
- Improve athletic performance.
- Increase strength and power.
- Assist with muscle recovery.
Advantages & Disadvantages
Disadvantages

Consumer Reviews
Testimonial
“First of all, this stuff really doesn’t taste bad at all. If you can’t pull yourself together to drink 1-2 scoops of this stuff then just mix it with another fruit/melon flavoured drink and stop leaving bad reviews. I only take this stuff for a few weeks leading up to competition (Jiu jitsu) and it definitely makes a difference in my training. This is another great product by Onnit.”
Testimonial
“This product is a non-stimulant pre-workout so you will not get a big tingling pump like you do when taking high sugar and caffeine pre-workouts. I took this product expecting that; however my lifts have been a lot harder. Yesterday I hit legs hard and would be sore for at least three days and I woke up not sore at all. Great for recovery, would recommend to all athletes.”
Testimonial
“I have used this product several times, and it seems to work pretty well. As with most Onnit products they work well but are pricey. Taste takes some getting used to, but if you choke it down fast you are all set. It’s worth it for most people to at least try it out. I find it to be one of the higher quality test boosters.”
Testimonial
“By far my favourite pre-workout supplement. I am not sure about it increasing my testosterone but every cycle time I use it I increase my weights and/or reps. It does not mix well and the taste is OK but what is important is I get results.”

Our Verdict
A great product to increase performance prior to a strenuous workout. The flavour is spot-on, and its power to aid recovery is phenomenol. Perhaps too many herbal ingredients, though, and a tad pricey, but apart from these grumbles this product hits the spot.
