BSc K-OS Pre-Workout Review

Body Science is a forward-thinking, strategic sports nutrition brand that delivers quality products you can trust. The company is committed to exhaustive scientific research, innovative food technology and ethical manufacturing practices. Being entirely Australian-owned and operated, Body Science is often top choice for  Aussie consumers.

K-OS Pre-Workout is designed to help all sportspeople get the most out of their training, whether they are athletes or weekend warriors.

Key Features

Body Science K-OS is a nutritionally comprehensive pre-workout supplement. Its complex combination of active ingredients targets four major goals: energy, endurance, strength and recovery.

These 4 attributes combine to maximise workout performance and increase training capacity. It delivers immediate effects that will help you work towards your long-term goals. 

With 3 grams of Creatine Monohydrate in each scoop, you can be sure that your strength and power will be supported. Creatine boosts anaerobic ATP synthesis, helping you get more out of each set.

Beta-Alanine reduces lactate accumulation and actually has an antioxidant effect inside the muscle cell. This all happens via its ability to increase Carnosine level.

L-Arginine is well known as a nitric oxide booster. Nitric Oxide (N.O.) helps dilate blood vessels, supporting oxygen and nutrient flow to your muscle tissue while you train. This means bigger sessions and more pumps.

Ingredients and Dosage

The recommended dosage for K-OS is 6g, which should be mixed with 300ml of water and taken 20 minutes prior to working out.

If you've been taking loads of strong pre-workout for a long time and are super-tolerant to caffeine, try 2 scoops. Just watch out for the beta-alanine tingles- they'll get ya'!

BSc K-OS is a low carbohydrate (0.4g) pre-workout making it suitable for most keto and other low carb programs.

KO-S is a carefully selected blend of active ingredients, including Creatine Monohydrate, Beta-Alanine, Arginine, Tyrosine, L-Carnitine Tartrate, Taurine, Vitamin C and Vitamin B3.

Pros and Efficacy

The initial kick from a serving of KO-S can be felt almost immediately. This gets you in the mood for training nice and fast. What would we do without caffeine? 

Overall, BSc K-OS offers all the ingredients needed for a solid training experience. It aids muscle endurance and strength, which ultimately means more gains.

Taste and Mixability

BSc K-OS is available in 3 awesome flavours, including Natural Cola, Pineapple Coconut and Blue Raspberry. They're certainly a nice change from the standard flavours most companies churn out.

Pineapple Coconut certainly is awesome on ice for a hot summers day in the gym. K-OS is a nice fine free-flowing white powder that mixes easily in water and has no dreaded clumping issues.

Cons 

Body Science K-OS Pre-Workout offers what is says and works well. Of course, this is a budget pre-workout, at $1 per serve. It doesn't offer what some of the higher-end pre-workouts do, like a clinical 6 to 8 gram dose of citrulline, plus loads of betaine and 300+mg caffeine.

Anyone who is extremely caffeine tolerant might not find KO-S has enough stimulant kick to get them charged up for a session. Body Science do offer the BSc Pre-Ultra for this reason, which at 2 scoops should get you there.

Conclusion

Like most Body Science products, K-OS is made from premium ingredients and is banned-substance free for peace of mind.

It's a quality budget-friendly pre-workout that is great for beginners, people who do the occasional training session or anyone wanting to keep their caffeine intake to a minimum.
